The battery on my 4wheeler died for good so I had to fork out $150 for a new one.
Got it installed and no power. Don't even show it getting any at all.
Ended up tracing the battery cables and found a corroded wire so I took my Dremel
and cleaned up the connector a little bit then it fired right up.
Kind of a bummer because my sister and her boy toy are riding up on the mountain
looking for Morel mushrooms. I really wanted to go.

Man, I didn't know you guys have Morels out there. My dad used to take me hunting. He found two mushrooms that had grown together one time. A 12" yellow Morel grown into a 13" tall Peckerhead. It made an Indianapolis outdoors show. We used to find pounds and pounds of them.
 
I’ve always been lost in the woods, when I lived up north I always loved going mushroom hunting. I don’t care for mushrooms but my wife loves them, always someone to give them too
 
You guys are dead to me 😝

They are gifts from god. Better than bacon. Have you guys never had a fried morel sandwich? It's the best thing you'll ever eat. They aren't like store bought mushrooms at all.

That's what the guy in a trenchcoat in the alley behind the Lincoln said. 🤣

Pull starts keep snapping strings so I used a different string. Well it stopped retracting…..here we go again.

I like that idea, I would have to keep a close eye on temps because it gets hot here, but I like that idea. :thumbs-up:
Thanks! I do the same thing on my LC12B1 when it is in street car, Baja bug, or SCT form. LCRACING makes a “mud cover” but it’s a polycarb body that covers the entire chassis. I vented it too.
I vented this buggy body, so I will be checking temps.
I’m wondering, if a TLR 22 series buggy body could be made to fit my Losi 22S. I’ts on the to do list.
 
There's never time to prep trucks on Friday for the weekend so I did them up to day.

Reprogrammed the Princesses Tekno, upped the BEC and lowered the brakes.

Replaced the pinion and tightened up the gear mesh on Super Kraton (the V4). Added some Red & Tacky to the spur gear.

Tightened up the gear mesh on the Sledge (heavy backlash on back flips) and added some Red & Tacky. Setting gear mesh on a Sledge isn't fun.

The Outcast works fine, lubed the spur gear.

I'm ready for the weekend, all I have to do now is wait.
 
Uninstalled a Hot Racing bellcrank.
A Sledge is too heavy for a bellcrank this skinny. About a 1/2 battery pack in the truck started steering oddly. The Ackerman plate is the only straight part left on it. There goes $50.00.
 
Put some new lnjora wheels and rubber on my Hobby Plus CR18 Pro today. I think the more agressive rubber is going to work well. It's a great performer.
