Arrma Spring Spacers

thingiverse

<P>After breaking the aftermarket front shocks to my Arrma Senton BLX 3S while bashing with some friends I had to quickly swap out the shocks with the originals. Problem was I couldn't find the spacers anywhere for them so I had a "saggy" front end that caused the front skid plate to constantly bottom out. I drew these up when I got home so I wouldn't have to buy / wait for new spacers directly from Arrma.</P> <P> I made 5mm & 7mm thick spacers but if you want a different thickness you could simply resize the "Z" axis on the 5mm spacer with your slicer program however I never used one thinner than 5mm so I cant say how strong that would be. I assume that you could probably get it down to 3mm just fine but again, I haven't done this yet. I used PLA with 100% infill and these feel a lot like the originals when putting them on or taking them off and I have done so many times without any breaking. I made them a little thicker in the mid height section for strength.</P> <P>These would probably work on other shocks using this spacer method as long as the shock tank shaft is 15mm however I have only used them on the Arrma 1/10 scale shock. You could probably play around with resizing the X / Y axis to get them to fit other spacer shocks but again I have only used them on the 1/10 scale shocks from Armma. I have included both the .stl and .123dx files in case anyone wanted to modify.</P>
