Revo rebuild done.

[CosmosGoat]

It was time for the Revo to get a good cleaning and going over. I pulled it all apart and cleaned it up. Also added some new parts. I didnt find too many problems. The diffs were damn near dry, leaking fuel tank (which i knew already), and i had some bad bearings but that was all. So I got a new tank and fuel tubing, RPM arms, and a good condition used body. I decided to do an orange/blue theme so I dyed the front RPM arms and tried the tank and it turned out ok. Here are some before and after pics:

I just followed the direction on RPM's website and they came out great. They sat in the dye for about 30 seconds.
