Anyone take their motors off the hanger yet? Im looking to see how theyre situated on the hanger without taking my only working drivetrain apart.

Im dying over here with TKP. I thought I loved it but fucking a I was wrong.

Getting these motors on an RKP hanger is likely my next project :expressionless:

After the big-assed nut only friction holds the motor on the tapered square in the pik…

I’ve described removing the motors from the axle a couple of times already in this thread

Hope this helps

I’ve been toying with this idea as well. Been trying to find a suitable hanger I can try and machine back for the square shoulder the motor needs.

Track down the revel OEM and setup a group buy for their rkp ones. I’m sure they’ll sell the drives without the ESC, etc. And I dont think I’ve heard anything about their axles breaking or anything

Could also ask dex if he is willing to sell a spare TBDD hanger :man_shrugging:

I’m not sure if the motors are the same length, if the threading for the motor nut is the same, blah blah blah

I don’t think dex will do it anyways, he doesn’t seem to like me much :joy:
