Tamiya Lunchbox parts D5 and D6

thingiverse

I made this emergency fix for my Tamiya Lunchbox / Midnight Pumpkin model car to replace parts D5 and D6, which attach the rear shocks to the gearbox. Using normal wear and tear stripped away the threads on the brass ball joint, leaving me in a bind. This print will only hold up for a day or so until I get a real replacement. Included are two versions: one stock like, and one thicker for those printing in PLA rather than ABS. The OpenSCAD code is attached if you need to tweak the tolerances or remake it into an STL file.
