Mixes with Gatoraid, I picked orange. And another bottle of crap remover that is lemon flavored. Thought I'd for for that citrus FRESH feeling.

That was thoughtful!

I contact both my bank and Futaba by phone, my bank said and insisted it wasn't an issue on their end, Futaba says their IT guy looked into it and should have resolved it, tried again still nada, then Futaba mentioned to try again in at least another hour so I'll try it again before bed. I knew this was going to be a hassle but jeez my anxiety can't take it anymore.

Still can't find my bag of preload spacers for the shocks. Unless I left them at the track a couple weeks ago they should be in the house. I usually put them either in my battery bag, purple hardware n parts tub, or my backpack. Looked all over those places, looks around the workbench and in drawers of junk and nothing. Even cleaned out my backpack too lol. I found a old transponder mount I thought I lost lol.

Watch it. I'll order more and the bag will show up.

But in the mean time does anyone wanna try to do a favor for me? Possible to 3d print Traxxas preload spacers? @luke66 says he did and works nice.

But besides that it's been a rough week and took a fat nap. And woke up to hard McDonald's froggy fries

Been around a bit. Back in the day, the Kyosho pre-load adjusters usually cracked, and wouldn't stay put. So I put zip ties above them to prevent them from riding up.

Didn't traxxas back in the day, before the current clips, weren't they like a clip that had a screw so you don't have to use multiple clips? from pictures I thing the RC10s also had that same kind of design. If so wonder if traxxas still sells those.

Or, one reason I should save up for some new shocks with adjustable collars/threaded bodies.

Back in the 80's, early 90's, yes. That was kinda the norm. Just a hose clamp design. Just like my Kyosho's.

Yep
