Ender 5 and 5 Plus "Raise the Bed" Mod

thingiverse

This is a remix of "Make your ender-5 bed/nozzle visible" by Taaner. Atop making your bed visible, the mod allows you to probe more of the bed with the BLTouch. For the Ender 5, it adds some much needed curves to Taaner's design and includes the Z-endstop mount they left out of the design. You do not lose any Z on the Ender 5. For the Ender 5 Plus, you need to use the risers, which attach to the bed assembly crossbeams with T-Nuts and capture the tram wheels. I designed these risers to accommodate up to a 12mm OD spring, so feel free to use 30mm medium loads. You will need 8x M4x6mm or M4x8mm bolts and 8x M4 T-Nuts. YOU WILL LOSE 25mm OF Z ON THE 5 PLUS, AND THIS CANNOT BE AVOIDED. FOR BOTH: To raise the gantry, you will need: 4x M5x40mm 4x M3x55mm You must also reverse your X motor, either by flipping the cable or reflashing your firmware.
