Re: Am14u3 Upgrade kit explained

Quote:
The middle wheels confuse me. In the CAD file they are using 4 AM-1151 spacers but, those spacers are not included in either of the kits. There is a .58" distance between those so, it looks like you will have to build your own spacer. You can do this by cutting spacers you already have or with small ID/OD PVC pipe although none of them will have the hex pattern.
FYI - the am-1305 hex spacer included in the AM KoP Chassis is 0.57". We just used 2 from a previous year.

One of the issues we ran into is that our kit came with only a single am-0441 gray spacer (0.985") but the layout plans call for a am-0440 gray spacer (0.370") for the 2 wheels using the inside end of the middle pulley. Not sure what that's about. We'll probably just end up making our own spacers...

More importantly, does anyone know if the Long Hex Output shaft that extends beyond the outer plate by about 0.5" is a "minor protrusion"? Or do we need to cut it? see the top of this image
