If...you are exchanging them yourself...the bolts are different lengths and must be installed in the exact hole as removed from.

Why just the flex disk ?
How about custom carbon fiber drive shaft, fiber glass body panels and plastic windshield and windows ? Those should cut down the weight.

Haha he should get a papier-mâché soft top as well lol. Major weight savings right there

Kind of defeat the purpose of having a flex disc

 

[r129_guy]

Thats a good idea. Where to get such custom driveshaft?

 

[sushipaste]

Im pretty sure it was a joke man. buy only original parts for these cars. Also you need to update your info in your account settings and add what year and model SL you have

No, not plastic. The material that used on military jets, they are very clean, also light and tough.

Plastic is just a generic name for all those stuffs.
They are often known by trademark names, like Lexan , Bakelite, Vinylite, or Lucite. etc.

Is there any carbon driveshafts for r129?

 

[RKH]

None for buying off the shelf, but you can always have one custom fabricated.
Money can buy just about anything.
