Creality Upgrade Ender 3 Extruder, Ender 3 V2 Upgrades Metal Extruder Aluminum MK8 Bowden Extruder 40 Teeth Drive Gear for Ender 3 Pro/Ender 5 Pro/Ender 5 Plus/CR-10 Series 3D Printer

The gear does not work , because the old one does not remove from the motor, also is chews up filament and causes the extruder to clunk because it wont feed.

Bought this to replace broken piece on my voxelab Aquila printer. Everything fits great on it and is very great quality. It was really easy to install.

I was having a problem with under extrusion on my ender3 v2 and picked this up and it fixed the problem. This should be on all of their printers.

Highly recommend this as an upgrade to your Creality printer.

The springs seem fine, and the metal extruder parts seem fine. However, the Bowden tubing was slipping. I couldnt tell if it was a problem with the tubing or the coupling. I ended up buying another full kit to replace it. I contacted the seller multiple times and got no response, so I replaced it. After that, they responded and wanted pictures or video. Wasnt worth the trouble, so I just let it go. Amazon would have done a return, but I would have had to disassemble everything, including the Extruder, to return it, so, again, wasnt worth it.

This upgrade made all the Difference in my PETG printing. Now i can Bed level and it seems to stay put much better with these springs. The Capricorn tubing lasts quite well with the PETG 245c printing temp, even on the Stock print head. Ive printed for nearly a week straight with no issues. VERY HAPPY with this this! Only reason to upgrade heat break is just out of Caution, not necessary for PETG

Maybe my kit was missing a piece, but the machine screw used to secure the lever of the filament drive was too short to properly secure it on my Ender 5+. I had to purchase another 20mm-long screw to assemble this properly, so my printer remained disassembled for a few days while I waited for that part to come in.

Watched a YouTube for easy install

Great value

Purchased as a replacement for the stock plastic feeder assembly on the Ender 3 Pro. Definitely much more secure and easier to work with. I will say its a real shame the printer doesnt ship with a metal feeder (as opposed to the plastic one that gets worn easily and seems to prevent proper extrusion), but putting that aside this is a great part.
