# MGN9 Extrusion Backer Mod
|
||||
|
||||
Updated For 2.4R2. Old files have been moved to separate folder.
|
||||
|
||||
A mod to allow the installation of full length MGN9 rails on top of Y extrusions to combat thermal expansion on a V2.4. This is based on the discovery of bimetallic flexing caused by thermal expansion, by whoppingpochard, detailed here: [Extrusion Backers](../../whoppingpochard/extrusion_backers)
|
||||
|
||||
If the stock X rails are replaced with a single MGN12 rail ([MGN12 Mod](../../arkeet/mgn12)), that leaves two free MGN9 rails which can be used as backers for the Y extrusions. They do not fit stock as the spacing on top of the extrusion is smaller than on the bottom. This permits their installation without the need to cut them down.
|
||||
If the 2.4r1 stock X rails are replaced with a single MGN12 rail, that leaves two free MGN9 rails which can be used as backers for the Y extrusions. They do not fit stock as the spacing on top of the extrusion is smaller than on the bottom. This permits their installation without the need to cut them.
|
||||
|
||||
Includes new Front Idler Uppers, new belt clips and a taller XY Cable Bridge.
|
||||
Bimetallic flexing of the X extrusion in the Z direction is resolved with the use of the single MGN12 rail on the front of the X extrusion.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
MGN9 rails as backers provide near perfect compensation for thermal flexing along the Y axis because they exactly match the characteristics of the lower rails. This makes them an excellent choice as backers for Y rails.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Includes new Front Idler Uppers, new belt clips and a taller XY Cable Bridge to account for the additional height of the linear rail on the right hand Y extrusion.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
## BOM
|
||||
```
|
||||
2 MGN9 Linear Rails with carriages removed that match the length of the existing rails.

22 M3 T-nuts
