Default Team Durango 2mm CVD's now available!!

Here is the link to their website:

http://www.team-durango.com/parts.ph...02001&type=OPT

I know a previous thread was started by Bagman but just thought id make it a bit more obvious. Cheers Bagman.

The 2mm driveshaft pins are due in any day, but are currently held up in customs due to the volcanic ash!

Not sure yet mate but i imagine if CVD's parts are currently held up in customs the chances are other parts are too .

Don't think it should be too long.

Surely we'd have heard of something by now if they were going to do that. It must've been discussed at a high level at team durango, if they had gone with it I'm sure they would have made an announcement to say so to stem a bit of disquiet. If they aren't going to do it then the best way to deal with it I suppose is just to stay quiet and keep your head down on the subject (team durango that is)

Bollox. Just had some delivered from Tresrey. Always happens to me this. Oh well, the Tresrey ones look mint. Spose I'll order the prop shafts from TD. This car will be even more awesome now. WOOOHOOO.

Once i used the bearing tip mentioned in previous threads i had no problems at all with the current pins.

I currently have the 2mm CVD's but still use my old CVD's for club meetings and Regionals with no problems. Adam Skelding had his CVD's on his car for over 6 months, again with no issues.

The bearing method in my opinion is the best solution if you are having any issues though, as you dont have to use grub screws, therefore putting no pressure on the centre of the pin.

Yeh they were some prototypes we tried for the first time at the Petit, but Adam first got his car in July 2009!

July - Jan = around 6 months lol

And they were prototypes for a reason, the first 2mm ones weren't exactly right, they were tweaked to the finished article now which are spot on.
