Main shaft seal for traxxas slash 4x4 HCG model 1

thingiverse

So I design a rubber component known as Main shaft seal for traxxas slash 4x4 HCG model 1, aimed at covering up the opening in the chassis where the main shaft emerges. Many traxxas slash 4 x 4 owners faced issues with the wide gap between the chassis and the main shaft, allowing small rocks and debris to get in and potentially cause problems with the RC vehicle. In response, some owners attempted to address this issue by rigging up contraptions. With means at my disposal, I decided to tackle this problem by designing a rubber component called Main shaft seal, crafted from ninjaflex filament. This component was 3D printed at one of my local hobby shops, and after testing it out on my slash 4x4, I made some adjustments to get everything running smoothly, ultimately succeeding with the installation. If you wish to download this file, note that the Main shaft seal must be made from ninjaflex filament or a similar type of filament. Additionally, Super Glue is required for attaching it to the chassis of the RC vehicle, and the provided photos should give you an idea of how to install it, as well as its appearance once installed. But I must caution you: use extreme care when working with Super Glue and be prepared to make adjustments to the Main shaft seal itself to ensure that the drive shaft operates freely.
