Default DEX 210 Building Tips/Issues

There are many posts regarding DEX210, but since many of you started building the Kit it could be useful to use this thread reporting building tips and issues found during the process, for us still waiting for the kits to arrive.

Thanks

I have only done bag A so far and it's gone together without issue.

When building the diff I scratched my head for a bit as to what the circlip clips on to, then realised you have to compress it and push it inside the inner hole of the outdrive.

There is a groove inside in which it seats into.

Some of the part numbers in the manual for plastic bits during the build are incorrect. Square floor piece, servo link ball ends.

The plastic inserts for the caster stumped me a bit not a great description of the options and how to fit in the manual.

2xM3x10 button head screws for the front axles in bag B was missing.

Other than that so far so good.

lots of zip lock bags but one stands out from the rest, the shock caps, i wonder if that was the holdup

@ Mike, The inserts are just like the old schumacher inserts but better as these have the option sizes on them so even i can understand.

on the rear brace, is the two center holes which you use for to hole the rear fixings of the gear box (MID) down with, Are they suppose to be through holes and not taped?

Very chuncky strong feel to it.

Cream will soon have a new Part to make

There are spare M3 x 10 Button head screws in bag F. It seems they have migrated to this bag..

We've spotted a couple of issues with the manual.

Step 29.
The MM rear bumper is missing from the instrcution manual it can be found on the 310121 Sprue @ tag #3.

The 320128-6 bushes don’t fit, there was a part number error in the manual.
These should be the 310257-4 bushes that are on the gearbox mould, there are 3 of them on there.

The pistons shown in the manual are switched for the kit set-up, the fronts should be 1.2mm and the rear should be 1.3mm.

These are being fixed for the on-line version.

If you do have any issues with missing parts in the kit, please contact support@team-durango.com

Please make sure you include the following items in your e-mail:

1. The Issue.
2. Your kit serial number (the little yellow sticker on the box)
3. Where you bought it from.
