A4T Backplate

DraftShift Design

Overview

StealthChanger Backplate for the A4T.

Z Joints

Replacement of your Z joints with a lower profile such as hartk123's GE5C Z Joint or Ellis'Short Z Joints are recommended to avoid bottoming out your Z carriage on the deck panel when using A4T.

LDO CNC Shuttle

It is recommended that 13mm long pins are used with the LDO CNC Shuttle due to it having tapered bushings. 13mm pins are included with the LDO Tool & Dock Kit.
