DJC Sleeve Bearing Details

This Serpent 402204 DJC sleeve BB alu serves to secure and centre small ball bearings inside the Medius X26 steel EP (SER400052) chassis where sleeve-type bearing seats are fitted. The aluminium construction provides a firm, wear-resistant bearing seat for 1/10 electric touring car applications.

Typically the sleeve is fitted to renew distorted or worn bearing housings or to fine-tune lateral clearance in suspension and drivetrain mountings. Because it is an insert, changes are limited to bearing fit and play rather than altering the chassis layout; correct sleeve sizing can cut slop and improve consistent suspension action under load.

Fitment advice: thoroughly clean the bore before inserting, press the sleeve squarely until flush, and inspect the bearing for smooth free spin. For tuning, make small adjustments and re-evaluate handling after each change to find the best result.

Is this part compatible with other Medius versions?

The sleeve is specified for the Medius X26 steel EP listed as SER400052; compatibility with other Medius variants depends on whether those chassis use the same sleeve-type bearing seat dimensions.

What should I check to ensure no binding?

Confirm the sleeve is flush and evenly seated, then spin the bearing location by hand and listen for roughness; if binding is present, remove and inspect both bore and sleeve for debris or misalignment.

How does aluminium help long-term performance?

Aluminium offers a consistent contact surface that resists deformation, helping bearings retain tighter tolerances compared with softer materials, which improves long-term fit stability.
