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

First.. the costumer service rep iris from wolias is awesome. Totally understood my issue with the photos it was a cinch to resolve the matter. The metal extruder kit/bundle works wonderfully with a few sharp edges. One or two brands of fillament shave at entrance of fillament hole. Besides that works like a charm. Thank you.

Really happy about this purchase so far. My 3d printer was in major need of this small upgrade and I feel it helped improve my print quality alot. The all metal extruder is very well built and seems to grip the filament alot better than the plastic stock one. I am glad they include every single scre/gear and coupler needed to install this upgrade. My stock gear was already worn down so Im glad they included a new one. The capricorn tube is also a great improvement as it guides and feeds the filament alot better as there is not alot of play inside the tube like stock one had. The new yellow more stiff springs are also a great add on. I used to have a need to eye-level my bed every other print it felt like. Now I check my level at least once a week and have not had to re-level yet. Overall this is a great kit no complaints! Quality parts and material. Although one thing that might need some improvement are the install instructions provided as they only show instructions for extruder. If they would provide more instructions to include the PTFE tube and springs that would be great.

I ordered this kit as soon as I purchased my ender 3 v2 on a recommendation. I can’t speak to the quality of the quality of stock parts but the kit for springs and extruded, and tube has been awesome. I haven’t had any issues yet. Make sure to take your time and look at the review images if something is confusing. The “instructions”don’t help too much.

This Extruder was much more robust than the original plastic extruder. This was a good price for a Creality branded extruder. I am refurbishing an original Ender 3 purchased from Facebook Marketplace.

Decided to upgrade to Capricorn tubing after the coupler I had broke. Immediately after swapping I tried printing only to find the filament jammed. Took the tubing off and fed fluent through to see if it was the hot end. It wasn’t. Tried to pull the filament back out and found out. ITS STUCK IN THE TUBING. I can’t even begin to recommend this to anyone else. Capricorn tubing is meant to be more slick and less resistance but it grips the filament and won’t allow printing or even reloading filament. Don’t waste your money.

Everything went together great, had my printer back uo and running within 15 minutes.

This was a throw it at the wall and see what sticks purchase when battling retraction/extruding issues. I couldnt get rid of the dreaded clicking. The install was moderately easy, but I still had to trail blaze off the instructions as they didnt fully match. But once I got everything together the clicking had ceased and the extrusion was uber clean and smooth. Definitely recommend this for those that have a issues with the Ender 3 plastic arms.

I liked everything in this kit...except for the springs. I actually went back to stock springs because the bed just would not stay level with these flat ones. Other parts definitely improved my setup.

Fit my Tronxy x5SA

Personally, I just wanted something that was all metal and had the larger diameter coupler for the bosen tube. This accomplished both with one upgrade. It works fine and it fixed the issue I had with the original CR-10 version letting the bosen tube slip in and out of place. I also replaced the one on my Wanhao Duplicator Mini. Easy to change over as its all directly interchangeable.
