2018 YT Jeffsy Al Comp 29 Link Replacement

thingiverse

A common issue on this generation of YT Jeffsy is the breaking of the butt weld between the two cast pieces that make up the link during a bearing change. I broke mine and couldn't find a replacement part so started digging into 3D printing a replacement as an option. Initial intent was to use a Markforge that I have access to including a series of layers of continuous carbon fiber. Then switched as I became concerned about snapping a linkage part close to my femoral artery! In the end I got lucky and found a replacement link so I didn't use this but thought I would throw it up incase anyone else was in need. Usual caveats apply; untested, dimensions not fully confirmed, not sure what years or variants this fits, CNC isn't optimized for any particular machine, no assurance of the strength of the parts, use at your own risk, etc. etc.
