waiting on some ryft parts in the mail, going to start on that project soon also
ill need to make a skid plate i guess? I'm going to be using the reefs transmission as its what i have on hand, the tekin roc412 motor, i have a raw 500 servo installed on the axles waiting for the rest of the build but thats as far as I've gotten on it.
next week I'm going to work on the course some more, I'm going to try to make the lines a little more obvious rather than just the meandering trail it is,

Know what ya mean man, Definitely too many projects. just have to pick and chose.

That's my problem this year. I can't play with toys with it raining every weekend, and evenings... I get lazy. Laptop and puppy lying beside me... I just keep buying more parts. That, to me, is "working on" my projects. I mean, I could play with toys and do the mud thing, but this...

would send my anxiety level to the max. I don't know that I'd ever recover.

lol I'm honestly the same way lol, my axles are packed full of marine grease, my diffs as well, the quickrun motor is sealed, . esc is waterproofed. servo is coated in plastidip, i need to replace the bearings but they were starting to squeel prior to this so needed replaced anyways. i ry to make them as waterproof as i can ( I've killed everyone of em at somepoint or another lol) and i enjoy a good wrenching, so i can go hard when i get that chance. that being said, that truck is currently broke lol

But not broke because of that mud bath

correct. the mud didnt make it into anywhere that mattered, opened the diffs up ready for the worst and it was still just blue grease, its doing its job, again i overpack my stuff bya ridiculous amount, the water or mud has to displace a serious amount of grease before it can get to any of the fun stuff lol

i filled in the gaps as well, when I'm screwing the cover back on it makes the excess ooze out the sides untill its tight

happy to say i got all of those items completed and have a brand new list!
cen f450-dually adapter need a slightly longer thread on it so it secures better- 2 min fix
ryft- needs front knuckles removed and a bearing replaced, also need diff lockers installed, currently have front and rear on hand, need to order center locker and shift servo to install 2 speed.
scx6 "mule"- need vinyl sticker and paint, need to order light buckets for the f250 superduty 1/6 scale body. need to rebind new reciever to the flysky remote so i can acess 1st gear as mine is stuck in second, my reciever is only a 2 channel atm. i have the stuff i just need to do it.
basecamp- need to order aluminum axles for it, thinking the treal front and rear, but thats like 200$!!!! oof, but at this point its worth it as he loves the truck and breaks the axles twice a year.

I have the same problem, I know what I should be working on, but all of my stuff is chaos, too many projects going on. and no where to work on them. Every time I think I'm going to have a weekend to tackle this problem, something else interferes, or I am to worn out to do it.

THIS is the 'bad influencing' I was talking about in @Littlemotor thread and how you all make me feel like this chaos is normal and I really DO have room for another buggy or 5 crawlers because they are small, or...

I feel ya bro. I am taking my paint booth and airbrushes back to the room I started out in. The airbrush has basically become a second hobby at this point anyway. But I need shelving at this point. And lots of it. I am to the point now where I can never find the stuff I put away last time I organized the RC room
