Help with Stealthburner mounting Please!!!!

Thank you all for all your help in advance, I have been trying to get this fitted for over 30+ hours over the last 2.5 days, and I am at my end, I'm over it, so now I ask the pro's for help!

I would have asked this on the discord but I couldn't find a valid invite link, so here I am.

So, without further dudes.....here we go.......
I picked up an Ender-5 Plus for a steal, and have decided to mod the hell out of this printer since my last 3dp experience was horrible!! This is only my second 3D printer. My first one was a Cobra Max, which turned out to be a pile of crap. And after messing with it for about four to six months, I ended up selling it. And this is now my second 3D printer, which this is about three to four years later.

My intentions and upgrades for this printer are as follows:

- Rapido UHF V2 hotend (currently using)
- LGX Lite Direct Drive (waiting to be installed)
- Beacon 3D (Currently using, AND I LOVE THIS THING!!!!)
- SKR 2 Rev B with 2209 drivers
- Raspberry Pi 4 4GB that is currently running clipper (touchscreen not hooked up yet)
- Mean Well 750W PSU for upgrading to PT1000 Thermistor and upgrading bed and heater.
- Exoslide rail system that is ordered and on it's way.


The stealthburner assembly I have currently, and the parts I have printed out and am currently using in a dry fit before install. Please ignore the heat sets if they are in the wrong spots due to me assembling this backwards, but I wanted to do this to avoid having to rip it all apart, to in turn have to put it back together because I needed to print a part, which happened twice when installin gmy rapido UHF V2.

So, the parts I have printed out for my stealthburner so far are:

- All LGX Lite parts from github here: 3 parts total https://github.com/Eytecz/LGX_Lite_...unt/tree/main/LGX_Lite_Stealthburner_ERCF/STL
- Both the Front for UHF and front for SB downloaded from here: 2 parts total https://mods.vorondesign.com/details/XN1NolgVYYBu1HNnxqC7Fg
And the Rear Mounting plate for the Rapido (which are the same everywhere)


The problem I am in desperate need of help on, is how the hell do I get the stealthburner to mount to my ender 5 sotck x carriage??? I have downloaded and printed just about every mount out there that I can find, and either I am too stupid (high possibility here), or the mounts are not for what they say they are.

Can anybody please point me in the right direction for a mount and/or mounting system that will allow me to mount this damn thing to my x-carriage?

Thank you so much in advance for any help or advice you can give. I have beem messing with this for 2 straight days 12+ hours each day, while I'm home healing from an injury. So if anybody has anything good, bad, or anything in between, please let me know. I am about to just say F&%# IT!!!! I am so over this, and to think I have spent 30+ hours trying to get this mounted is just ridiculous!

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the short answer is: as is, you won't.

Long answer:
The Stealthburner toolhead is supposed to be installed on the carriage of a linear rail, installed on the aluminum extrusion of the gantry. More than that, it was also originally designed to be driven by a CoreXY kinematic system, while the Ender 5 Plus have a purely Cartesian kinematic system.

There are some ways to solve that:
  1. you can further mod your Ender 5 to make it a CoreXY 3D printer, the most mature of the alternatives out there is the Mercury One (that's what I did with my own Ender 5, but I have the release version, it was updated later);
  2. or you can print a mod that allows the Stealthburner to be installed on the stock E5 carriage. Google showed me this one, but I'm sure there are others out there.
