CAN BUS chip delete (Broken CAN BUS Club)

So I have some various Ubox dual.

I was gonna order the parts as seen here:


^top pic idk what model spintend is showing there.

p /n
these part num are for the purple UBOX V2 75V 100A X2
TJA1051T/3
https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/nxp-usa-inc/TJA1051T-2Z/13590497
the V1 DUAL ESC 75V/100A X 2 (rev1.2)
TJA1051TK/3
https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/nxp-usa-inc/TJA1051TK-3-1J/5035824

I asked someone about this and I was told:
" If the STMs can controller is explicitly capable of transceiverless, you could literally short short can Rx/tx together for all device and pullup to 5v (or probably 3v3 with STMs, tho they wouldn’t blow up at 5v) and enable transceiverless in firmware. If not, couple diodes."

So that might be one option.

I also have some random CAN transceivers for I am not sure what. The specs match up with the purple ubox kinda. Worth messing with since I have them perhaps.

Would love any input from you all.
