Ok this is the link to the stl file on YouMagine.

hope it meets your needs.
I use a small length of pipe cleaner with a few drops of light oil on that is then pushed in through the back hole, it then rubs on the filament as it feeds through oiling it as it goes, you can then remove the pipe cleaner and add more oil as you see fit.
Upgrade kit available

Re: Upgrade kit available
Lepaul, if you want to dave the um2+ kit for the umo, makes sense. You could 'semi' upgrade the um2 with meduza + IRobertI to get torque on the motor and the ptfe coupler to TFM (so print hours ramp from 100-200 to 500-2000) but you will need all hands on deck. Adjusting the hotend assembly after changing the coupler needs of a special part (printable thanks to sandervg) to adjust the distance between the tfm/fixed spacer/hotend.
On your umo with a e3d pt100 amplifier you could install the um2+ head.
Also it isn't a fast mod, you know by the post I did about um2 head that it takes time to assemble and avoid nasty leaks if something it's done wrong. Ofc, if you are up to, you could have a pretty nice system.
Also you could move the um2 notplus head to umo with that amplifier, and umo can handle the hotend feeding strength without problems since has way too much torque.
So, think about it. It won't be easy but could give you a really nice system.
Just remember um2 normal couplers last 100-200h max (like umo). So if you do all the hard work you can get a really stable 2 printers that with some love will do really cool stuff.

Re: Upgrade kit available
I definitely plan to use the upgrade kit for the UM2
You know, I hadn't thought about what to do to the UMO. I mean, the old parts from the UM2 could head into it...?

Re: Upgrade kit available
Yeah you could use a e3d amplifier to connect the pt100 on the umo board. There's a guy on the post of my um2+ manual that used the um2+ on a umo, it shouldn't be too hard, but might take time. And since you have 2 printers it could be fineas long as you have one working

Re: Upgrade kit available
I've not upgraded, but I'm running my UM2 with a Bondtech dual drive feeder, currently running with the Olsson block (my test Ruby nozzle is back with Carl for check and repair I miss that nozzle) and my better half has said I can upgrade to the new improved matchless in October for my birthday when we get back from holiday .
So as I've previously said I'm going to label mine as "Ultimaker >2"
