1. So you've seen this before?

2. What are shaft collars and where would I look for them? I googled them. I see ones with set screws. Is that the type you are referring to? Or is there something else?

Thanks in advance!

I suppose you might consider a stack of flat washers or bigger nuts on each of the studs .

Or , source some new correct length studs .

Or , drill and tap for more common 8mm replacements .

Or , drill and tap for all thread and cut to length .

There's always more than one way around a bush . ;)

Puch studs should be closer to the right length. Or get those spacers.

Thanks Bob!

The original studs are M6 x 116mm and that link you sent me was M7 x 106mm. I assume the holes in the case will M6 and both end of the malossi studs you sent would be M7.

Here's a link to a Polini set that comes with "coupler nuts"

They are M6 x 106. I still think that's 5mm to long but I'll have to double check. But those coupler nuts look like they could be threaded further down the shaft than the original acorn nuts which bottom out at some point.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
