Dropped one star for the fact that the springs are too long for the bed of my Ender 3 V2, the kit however is still fantastic value. The red wheels and the metal extruded are both big upgrades over the standard plastic ones and both are simple to install. Recommended!

The metal wheels are designed so the edges of the wheel are further up then extruded center pin. So the edges scrape and its difficult to spin. Terrible design. But I put all the other things on it already so I wont bother taking the rest apart to return it

This “upgrade” came up as being a deal and discounted when I purchased my Ender 3 V2. First off the springs included with this kit are too long. It makes the bed too high. The extruded upgrade was well made but never seemed to do anything better than the original and in fact never worked quite right on my printer. The only thing I really used in this kit was the metal leveling knobs. That’s the only reason I’m giving this 2 stars. The rest was just a waste of money for me.

TLDR: If you indend to go direct drive at some point you should get a dual gear extruder instead of this. Full review: Everything in this kit is useful if you leave your printer as bowden drive. The spring upgrades are nice although I have seen there is now a silicone rubber version which is supposed to be a bit better than the springs. I have not tried those and am happy with the orange springs. The oversize aluminum adjuster wheels are great and better than the smaller plastic ones. The metal extruder works better than the plastic one, however when using in direct drive format it would click because it would let the filament slip through the single gear mechanism. I upgraded it to one of the metal red dual gear extruders instead. I am using the hero me 5 remix of the direct drivinator and it works great on my ender 3.

I’m not even sure where to start on this train wreck… Basically, it’s nothing like what is advertised. Many missing parts, low quality, poorly made leveling nuts and more. The metal on the leveling nuts is pitted and looks more like scrap metal that sat outside for a long time before being spray painted by a 10 year old. This is like going to McDonalds for a Big Mac, but they give you two fries and a chicken nugget with a bite taken out of it. I’ll be contacting the manufacturer directly about this and will leave an update afterwards.

So nice To replace original plastic one with a beautiful metal one, same goes for the bed leveling wheels.

Came with everything but my springs I’ll update my review once I install it

While much of the installation is obvious, a few items were not and documentation was lacking. I could not determine how to install the new drive gear properly. The bed leveler wheels need deeper offsets to be most useful.

The metal extruder is to replace the plastic one that the arm cracked. Warning the z will need to be adjusted as the springs are taller, making the bed higher. Failing to account for that the nozzle will drive into the bed and damage one or both. The bed remains level better after, but be aware to check first.

The springs and wheels are better than stock, not sure on the rest as my machine came with aluminum
