GTXR conversion- version 2
-
@biell I'll send you one for free. Just dm me with your shipping address.
-
@lemur - ah, so it's just another shim/spacer ring in a different spot? If you'd be willing to send me one also I'd appreciate it, it would keep that old Plus in action (I already ordered that Adapter Plate from Plastic Spider to do the GT). I'd be happy to PayPal you some cash for your time & effort.
-
@glyph No problem, just dm your address and I'll get it out next week.
-
@lemur -- Interested, too! While I do not have a GT hub to use with one of my Pluses, the hubs should become reasonably available. I appreciate your knowledge and skills!

what can of worms?!XR's got what plants crave!

@notsure -- Visiting my dad's aunt I remember being sent to the basement to get a mason jar of home-canned peaches. And surprising me and making me take notice, on the shelf one of the mason jars was thick inside with white squirming maggots. It made the can-of-worms saying tangible and real to me. I am guessing it was a fairly common occurrence in the winter stores of home-canned goods.

@glyph Gtr custom heavy duty end plate update:
Finally the seal came in for my custom Gt/Xr 6 inch rim conversion end plate. The seal is an oil seal, and as such, is meant to keep oil in , also dirt and moisture out but asserts too much pressure on the axle. Removing the ss tension spring solves the problem.
I used a XR stator as a mockup for the pictures.
I'm running a shim mod now, but waiting on my Enduro tire to come in so I can switch over.
-
@glyph I've got the shims made, I'll get them in the mail shortly.
-
@lemur Thank you, you are too kind!
-
@lemur Thanks!
-
@lemur -- And I add my thank you, too!
-
@s-leon All three OTW by snail mail. Haha.

@lemur off topic: you seem to be close to sources parting out boards...im desperate for an XR battery box as printed ones are crapping out. Any chance you (or others) can help out?
-
@maciak Seems like the Xr battery boxes with lid are in demand , approximately $150-200 on FB
-
@lemur
Thanks. Have no FB so that's..that;)
I actually dremeled out the bottom grid off the + box and the battery fits in it. Snug but can close the lid without using clamps lol. Re-inforced the bottom outside with carbonfiber to make up for loss of stiffness.This means i part out the + and sell the controller and CB+ pack.
-
@lemur I got the spacer, thank you!
-
@lemur received, thanks so much!
-
@lemur -- My shim came today. Thank you, again!

It was heck getting the motor plate cover (and I'm going to end up with two), but the GTR is complete.
GTR with a SLS/TechRails motor cover, 6" Enduro, Life Savers, Grizzly's, modified Foamies with CNR grip tape, and another attempt at adhering UHMW to HDPE being almost successful. The picture is taken in front of another project from earlier this year, to find a purpose for my old Burris treaded tires.
-
@biell Ouch! By the looks those tires got potential for so many miles more. 8O
You must be perfectionist or either getting loads of punctures from your rides.
