Gregmatic Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I've always seen it said that you can get some spacers to adjust for the slack from a 10mm ring gear to the more common 12mm. Never saw any hard part #'s or pics so I decided to post up for those interested. Well, I ordered a set of 10 from McMaster-Carr and personally checked them by hand. Here are the specifics: McMaster Part #: 6679K14 Box Part #: PAP1012-P10 / 1650238 Price: $3 Ea. (QTY 10) rip-off! Material: PTFE coated bronze ID: 10mm OD: 12mm length: 12mm I test fit them by hand the fit is perfect. No slack whatsoever, tight yet enough clearance to thread freely and not effect torque measurements. They will need to be trimmed by a few mm in length. You could probably find them cheaper elsewhere but this was fast & easy and worth the rip-off price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Yup, I used them in my OBX intstall and didn't even need to trim them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregmatic Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 How's that OBX working out for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
