I actually really like it!! It’s a PIA gabbing to shellac every square inch. They get fruit flies and they poop on the walls and the only way to convert is shellac first. Everywhere. Then hot mud and holes and I found a secret to the system is after you’ve hot mudded all the dings that drives really quick obviously and you can go back with a wet sponge and just wet sand so to speak. It gets rid of the ripple that you might leave. Especially if there’s texture it’s hard to get it perfect so but anyways, at that point texture, the hot mud, two coats of duration semi gloss. Good for another bashing. I just like keeping organized and popping them off in a hurry. 🤙🏼
Happy painting

So I just installed rc awd front and rear differential as well as arrma aluminum center differential.

What I’ve noticed is upon acceleration and turn off the wheels the truck does 180. Whole lot easier than it ever did.
I have hundred in front and rear and two hundred k in the center.
Also side note the rpm wing mount is pretty nice!😂🤙🏼

So finally was able to get some new differential…front and rear are rcawd and center is arrma aluminum.

They all came fully built. My question.
Do I trust the lubricators in there and that there is thread locker in the screws?
I know you guys are going to say to open em up aren’t you??:)
If I do…should he able to reuse the gaskets?
Also I got new gaskets for where bulkhead meets chassis. Idk how important that one is but last time I was in there the old one about ripped in half so better replace this time around.
I’m super tempted to just strip the whole rig down to nothing and fully rebuild.
Just to clean. Oh yeah and I got a complete set of bearings.
Guess I’m intimidated by the disassembling the steering. So long as I stay organized, it should be fun right?

My sweet Susie broke a dew claw 😢

Went to vet and they clipped the rest off…it was jutting out 90 degrees to her foot.
Looked painful.
Anyways they clipped and wrapped. We go back Thursday.
She wouldn’t pee yesterday or last night but finally this morning, she did. I was stressed about that😢

Now I’m worried that her massage is too tight. I even took her back yesterday to have it checked (the vet is literally at the end of my block❤️)
They had 3 technician check it and said it’s good. I’m just a worry wart.
I’ve explained the situation to chat and it seems to think as long as toe buds are warm not swollen and she’s not messing with it…then it’s fine.
Idk what I want from this post… I’m just sad and worried.

Fantastic summer painting so far!!

I know it’s not even summer yet but the weather has been fabulous!!
Working on this old school bohemith and man it was in rough shape.
Washed and two gallons of primer rx sprayed and back rolled in. Then a whole case of shermax elastomeric caulking down every seam. Two coats of emerald exterior acrylic. Looks brand new.
Amazed at the trim coverage of the grey color back over the bronze. One coat wonder🤙🏼
And before you come at me the home owner asked if one coat works then call it good (trim only) body mandatory two coat.
Gonna go soak my finger tips🤣🤘🏼

So I want to build some differentials with the best parts that are better than stock….

What’s the best way to go about this?
I was thinking aluminum cases but idk if I should get arrma brand or is it safe to get the rcawd? The arrma version Is need the gears so then what gears should i get? lol
It’s a rabbit hole. Oh and outdrives? Best bang for the buck.
If someone who knows doesn’t mind giving me some pointers would be appreciated

Precious lil Quinn ❤️ fifteen this year.

Her face greyed out long ago…she’d been with us since about six months old. Love her to bits. She’s in good health thankfully. Gone deaf🤗 if Clap high pitched she hears it and if then she sees me she’ll follow hand commands. We’ve adjusted.
She’s one of five but she’s still the queen🥰
