^^^^ 1) Someone over torques the VTA block bolts. 2) they continue to use VTA, even though something does not feel right. 3) this strips the rack of teeth, creating bald spots, rendering the VTA block useless. 4) Now there is a need to replace the VTA block. Please share with the readers here what Bruce' response is. |
Well, curiosity killed the cat as they say. I have confirmed that if you send Bruce your original manifold he will replace your damaged VTA Block including the VTA Arc Block. The VTA blocks are on either side of the VTA arc block, the VTA arc |
Note: The picture linked in the previous post is the result of a ..Type B Personality.....Madman. This is my personal opinion. It is an extreme case of abuse, and does not represent normal wear and tear. ************************* I need to make this clear because I got emails asking such. The real story here, IMO, is that even this kind of setup abuse can be resolved / fixed by Bruce due to the design of the ET2. Cheers |
Auction for a rare 2.5. from the ebay ad. It features the large diameter spindle which is designed to operate at air pressures up to 19psi, The larger diameter spindle was designed for MC carts. Both the 2.0 and 2.5 can be set up by Bruce for 19 psi. Note: It only comes with the aluminum armtubes which work better with the 2.0, and MM carts; but you do get two, so one can be sent to Bruce to convert to carbon fiber for MC Carts. One way you can tell it is a 2.5; the end cap I Beam side is flush with the spindle and not overlapping it. Not associated with the auction - good luck to those watching. |
