@Tunedpipe you know I'm just ribbin' ya, my wife is the same, she always tells me go ahead. If anything I'm the one who feels guilty for spending the money. She hardly ever shops. And I had to laugh, my wife has been on a reading binge lately.
 
My wife just gave up. She realizes that I work my butt off to take care of and support them both. I'm in call 24/7 365. I stopped drinking and all the hard man made products. So if these little RC cars/trucks. Is what keeps me happy and calm. Along with my little 🌳 🌲. She's all for it as well. She just busts balls and wonders why I need so many of them. I just ask why does she need so many candles or shoes or bags. So she gets what she wants I get all the Rc stuff I want. Win win happy wife happy life. If not oh well I'm still going to buy and get more RCs... 👍👍🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😉😉

I've mentioned this before but my wife spots an empty spot in the living room and says, what's next...
 
Another small shipment in today. I will be soaking the arms in WD40. I expect a part or two maybe to come in tomorrow, if not most will be here Monday for sure.

Traxxas HD arms.

Pin set from Jenny's.

I have ordered a heavy duty set for the lower arms and they should be here Monday or Tuesday.

Put one of those arms in your hand for scale. Like the shock. Sorry, it's a vaping thing 😉

Here you go bud the upper and the lower. Before I put them in a WD40 bath. For the night. They are huge

Don't worry bud the "GREEN BEAST" will be there when it's time. And all the dust settles.. family comes first. Thats is always first and for most. And you've had a few very hard weeks. I'm sure it helps take your mind off of everything. The X isn't going anywhere. And gives you something to look forward too👍👍
You don't have that much more to go. What else you got left? The rear, drive train, wheels, and your correct Christmas is coming buddy....
 
You know, with everything going on in the world today and definitely in my family right now, it's always a pleasure to come in here
and talk to you crazy bas💩 😝😝😝
