Are you doing this because you have parts laying around or for a specific reason? Just wondering as I don't feel the stock pieces have any problems. Plus running a "no-blade" type of outdrive wears quick.

just use a kimbrough medium servo saver. THe one with 5 holes. PN 201 I believe.

As for the dogbones I am hoping to try something else as I have bent both front CVD's pretty badly. This happenes collisions where you break an arm and the dog bone is taken with it and bent at the c-hub where it goes thorough. That and I am still getting excesive wear where the outter pin rotates inside the alloy bowl. The price of the schumacher parts has kept me from replacing it . . .48$$ or something I think!

I would actually recommend the kimbrough medium without the predrilled holes. It lets you put the hole just where you want it(like closer to the edges than the predrilled holes...which lets you stay closer to the original Schumacher arm angle). And if you decide to cut some of the servo saver arm off for clearance concerns, you don't have to worry about the arm already having holes all through it.

Heres a link: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXND48&P=7

Why don’t you just pick up a replacement set of bones, Part# U3233 for $18 you just fixed you cvd's instead of piecing together other kits?
