NAMI Suspension Shaft for Top Front, 50mm (suit Burn-e / Blast)

• NAMI Electric stock factory shaft for the top of rear suspension.
• Suits all Burn-e and Blast models.
  • Length: 50mm.
  • Outer diameter: 12mm.
  • Weight: 33 grams.
• When fitted with screws each end, the shaft acts as a pair screw (it is hollow, threaded). The thread inside the shaft is M8 observed with 14-19mm depth of thread. In most instances you can re-use the stock socket head screw, which is A2-70 silver stainless socket head M8x12mm length (on occasions 14mm) with washers 1.5mm thick, 16mm outer diameter (assumed silver 304 stainless). Alternatively add option for:
  • Pair Aftermarket Button Head M8x16mm 12.9 class black carbon steel screws with 0.5mm thick, 16mm outer diameter silver 304 stainless washer.
• Typically required when original has deformed which would result in vertical "play" in the shaft and a "knocking sound". This sound and feel can be observed when front wheel is lifted off the ground. In these instances, accurate measurement tools such as micrometre or callipers will reveal the shaft diameter has worn to ~11.96mm, which is a <0.4mm reduction.
• Consider including an optional bushing if using the factory stock KKE shocks. Often these need be renewed if "play" is observed. This is the self lubricating bearing that sits inside the shaft of the shock as explained on the KKE suspension product page. Press out the original (a suitably sized socket from a socket set with drift is usually suitable). Press in the renewed bearing in same manner. The bush has 12mm inner diameter, 14mm external diameter, 15mm length and in most instances can be tapped in and out with appropriate sized drift.
• Genuine NAMI Electric factory spare.
