Wanhao D9 X Axis Idle Wheel Tensioning Mount

thingiverse

Wanhao swapped out their x-axis idle wheel mount for a pliable plastic one that flexes, so it had to be replaced. This is my rendition of an idle wheel mount; you'll need approximately 30mm M3 screws, best to utilize a washer and nut to keep the screw securely fastened to the wheel mount, then M5 16mm bolts to attach to the 2020 extrusion. I may revise this design later to allow the existing bolts that come with the printer to be used, which seems like the logical thing to do. There's a fantastic remix available on Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3070024. Not that I don't appreciate my own design or use it myself, but I really think it's worth exploring as an alternative as well.
