Any new about the shaft lenght?? I already ordered a monoblock for my lightning chassis....

With the gmaxx i know the answer with the lighting i really can't help you. I think you can better ask robin on unlimited engineering.

He has no idea, Robin is being really useless at helping me. :(

Only thing i know is that the gmaxx extension extends the truck 30mm and the UE monoblock 31.75 mm.

i have got no idea about the length of the lightning.

I asked about the shafts to UE and Sam answered:



I'm not sure. RC Alloys might still make custom bones but I not sure. I think Robin was looking into it for the Thunder and Lightning chassis. I tested a shaft the other day. I don't think it's quite 130mm though.

Serum 12.23.2006 02:46 PM

What length of shaft does the normal lightning use? isn't it 100.5 mm? and is that the size from pin/pin or end/end..? just add 31.75 mm to it, and you should be fine.

105 on the lightning rene. So 136.75 I figured a 135. Cause the shaft will be on less angle.

Nick 12.23.2006 05:55 PM

I've got told loads of different measurements. I'm going to get a Monoblock orderd and measure it myself.

Serum 12.23.2006 07:03 PM

probably the best thing to do.

Mike can get you any size of dogbone you need.

coolhandcountry 12.23.2006 11:34 PM

That is the safest option nick. they you know you more likely to have it right.
No guessing involved.

Nick 01.01.2007 07:24 PM

Orderd one from Mike.

Man, I'm so angry at Robin, he doesn't reply to any of my posts/PMs/E-mails about the shaft length (as he wants to sell his own) or about the international credit card getting rejected at his store. Last time I try anything with him. I've done a strong worded post on his forums to see what he comes out with, I just hate unproffesional businesses, probably because I'm English... Anyway, rant over, hope you guys have better luck with him, lol. :)

Mike rules!

Going to fit it when it comes and see what shaft I need, should look luuuurvly.

Just because this forum is dedicated to Oury's flagship company, I wont say any powerful words.

If I see him in person, I'll make sure to make him change the way he treats the international customers.

I heared that he is working on new projects and that is why he is not free enough to serve everyone.

coolhandcountry 01.01.2007 09:41 PM

Just cause you are busy with one project don't mean you should ignore
others. That is just plain wrong. Could cost money in the long run.

Nick 01.01.2007 10:06 PM

I'm puzzled at how UE is run. He makes REALLY good parts, yet he never meets the demand and cuts out a huge international market.

Just a side job maybe?
