Any questions comments concerns _BTW i did the revo axel stubs thing to allow sliders to work with HB diffs and it works good |

looks real nice....also if you want to strip the anno off of your proline steering aluminum components.....just soak them in liquid plumber or drano...or even Pequa.....let them sit in a bowl with the stuff for several minutes....then it will start to bubble...then just swish parts around in solution until the anno comes off.......then when it is off...run it all under cool water...then polish with Mothers aluminum polish.....just a FYI is all

thanks

it looks like he took the blue off the motor plate... how did you do that, gorillamaxx?
i've been sooooo close to pulling the trigger and getting those flextek arms. your shots are giving me an itchy trigger finger! :027: very, very slick truck! |
thanks. I used a wire brush and some sand paper to get off the anodizing. some blue does not bother me i just want it to be all contrasted not to silver, blue, red, black. mostly silver but a bit of everything eelse to make it look good. (P.S. Make your decision wisely-Not talking about arms- Just in general, before i looked at so many pics before i got my parts and that aided in my desision, but mine came to geather really well. But one thing you have to keep in mind is how things will look on different setups. For example the chassis looks hot on my car but it does not on other peoples)

so you're saying those arms won't look hot on my truck? :005:
thanks for the advice. i'm a noob on this forum, but not a noob to the hobby. i have my share of UE, GA, titanium, lunsford, proline, hitec 5955, spektrum, matched SPC racing cell packs etc. on my truck. i've learned the hard way - long ago - that form does not alway follow function. my only mistake was the hv system - but i'm holding out for the MMM. it may not be a $3000+ setup, but it is far above stock. i'll leave how my ride 'looks' to the custom airbrushed true fire lid i'll be making for it soon. :027: |
