Step 1-5

Blue Loctite (McMaster P/N 1004A12) is recommended on all bolts that thread into a tapped hole.

Step 1

The 1/4” ID bearings are installed from the top side of the Bottom Plate. They are a light press fit and may be pressed in by hand or with an arbor press.

The 1/4” ID x 1/2” OD Bearing can be installed in either available bearing hole. The placement of this bearing will determine the location of the CTRE Mag Encoder Mount on the top plate for all configurations, along with the belt configuration for the Flipped configurations.

The Tube Mount bottom plate was used for reference but assembly instructions are interchangeable between the Corner and Tube Mount versions.

Step 2

The 3” ID X-Contact Bearing will be installed from the bottom side of the Swerve X Bottom Plate. It is a tight slip fit and can be installed by hand or with an arbor press, if necessary. The bearing should sit flush with the bottom side of the plate.

Once the bearing is fully seated, use the five #10-32 x 1/4”L bolts to retain it. The bolts should be tightened until flush with the bottom side of the Bottom Plate. The image below indicates the location of the bolts in green.

Step 3

These bearings are a light press fit and may be pressed in by hand or with an arbor press. The images below show the side the bearings must be installed from for all Flipped configurations.

The position of the 3/8” ID x 7/8” OD flanged bearing must align with the 1/4” ID x 1/2” OD radial bearing installed in step 1.

Step 4

The bearings will come installed in the 72T Main Rotation Gear. If removal is required, the bearings will be a light press fit.

Step 5

Press the 72T Rotation Gear in by hand. If necessary, use a dead blow hammer to lightly tap it in.

The Drive Shaft must be installed through the bottom side of the 3/8” ThunderHex bearing.

The Wheel Module Drive Shaft was updated to have a shoulder in order to get rid of the 3/8" Snapring. If your shaft does not have a shoulder, retain the 15T Bevel Gear and 3D Printed Bevel Gear Spacer with a 3/8" Snapring.
