SNIPE Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) Hi im using the following in series (on the same axle) : 0.5L crosshole with friction 1L crosshole no friction 0.5L round hole that joins to the main section of wishbone A 1L round hole 0.5L round hole that joins to the main section of wishbone A So I was wondering, can I force in a 3L axle with stud in real life onto a 57515 wishbone. like how this digital model is arranged: The stud is pressed onto the 57515 which frictionises it at that end so that it can move with the axle with not as much load going to the purple liftarm. and it helps keepthe axle from sliding right out. Note that the green bits would be one brick in real life , blue brick is the 1L hole without friction, yellow brick is the 1L round hole, purple brick is the 0.5L cross hole with friction, green is the two 0.5L round holes. LDD does not have a 57515 part so the green brick replicates that. Edited January 12, 2012 by SNIPE Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 (edited) I don't think you'd be able to get a 3L axle with stud in between a wishbone part like that. But, if you could, the parts would fit together fine, but I don't think it would be the strongest solution. IMHO, you'd be better off using a 4L axle with stop there and let it stick out by 1/2 stud on the side of the purple part (or double up the purple part).

SNIPE Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 I have been able to try the same thing with a simaiat part to the 57515 in real life you just have to be very carefull as they do bend to help you put the axle through but you dont want to break it by bending it too far. The only real problem I can see is the purle litarm axle is kind of hanging onto whats left of the axle but I thinkni know how to strenghen that if needed. Quote
