Those are dangerous addictive.... until you wake up one morning and realize you have the same $ into that as you do your real truck

That is so true.

I miss mine! I bought a new T-Maxx when they first came out. Gosh, 10 years ago now? Sold it for college books

Have fun with them! you got some killer deals.

I've been thinking about getting a nitro rc, something simple to run up and down the street to annoy my neighbor with. Also I have a black top parking lot around the block from me that rarely has cars in it.

The blue one I bought for $50. It had no motor and was in bad shape. I rebuilt it with new parts, put a motor on it that we had and a few other new parts for $45. It's something I can do to keep my stress levels down. And it's something that my son and I can do together.

If you have seen my Facebook about my neighbor you know what I mean. I'll do anything legal to annoy him and his son that lives next to him.

The ranger is no longer drivable and is parked until I get the much needed maintenance done that I have put off for the last 6 months.

Clutch slave is gone and no longer will hold any fluid. It's been slowly getting worse since my last trip to Bundy Hill last October when I submerged it in mud.

While I have it apart I will replace the rear main seal that has leaked since I got the truck. I will also replace the noisy bearings in the trans and also fix the shift rail plugs that are leaking.

Also having some issues with the steering box. Hasn't been right since Bundy hill. Don't know what is wrong with it so I guess it will get pulled and looked at.

And while I'm at it I will replace the junk power steering pump and finally put my Saginaw on. And while I'm working on the motor I will replace the leaky thermostat housing and install my electric fan that I've had on the other ranger.

This might take me a while since I don't have the time to work on it and take care of my wife too.

Wife, family, etc...comes first, that I understand, that's why I haven't got much done on mine but now that I got my car back on the road (hesitates when accelerating from a stop or while driving though for some reason) I might be able to continue work.

Still sucks I couldn't make it to the meet to see you guys.

Family is first. Too bad I am not closer to help you.

Dnger83, my Acura was doing that and I couldn't figure out why. Me not having interest in engines doesn't help lol. Ended up being lower intake gasket.

I need to rest the computer on mine but also my number 8 injector sounds terrible causing my engine to have a random rough idle that you can hear out the exhaust. Also need to replace my o2 sensors.

Yes. Family first!

Justin said he would drive all the way up from indy to help but it looks like I will work on it when I get time, a few min here, a few minutes there. Plus my brother says he will help. Oh and my son Tim needs a learning experience.

Going to order the clutch kit and wanting to know if there is much difference in quality between the LUK and SACHS clutch kits?
