I have used this replacement part for almost 2 years and allready improved from my first version, I would like to share my finddings to further improve this design. 

 

At first I pinted both endcaps using PLA, 4 perimeters, 5% infill and .2 layer height, I found that for leg extension one side stresses more than the other, causing one side 3D printed replacement to fail after 8 months.

 

Looking at how the part broke I created a reinforcement model to use it as a modifier on Prusa Slicer.

 

I replaced the first to broke PLA part with one printed on PETG using the reinforcement modifier.

 

The other PLA part lasted for over a year and a half, now it has been replaced with reinforced PETG part.

 

First PETG part has been working strong for over a year and I hope it keeps going.

 

My latest print settings are PETG 4 perimeters, 5% inflill, .3mm height for the hole piece and 30% infill for the reinforcement modifier, I would apreciate feedback if you come up with some better setup.

 

Sorry, you have to use supports for this print, if you find a way to print it without, please share.
