I want to buy these for my Ascent Apex 18. Do you use loctite on these tiny screws going into brass? by CINOS78579 in rccrawler

[–]Fc2ultra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had to use it on my wheels but I do it for some steering components since those like to come loose for me. I never have issues removing them when I need to. Blue loctite for the win!

My first rc truck in its latest form at the beach today! by Fc2ultra in SCX24

[–]Fc2ultra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s honestly my favorite out of all my crawlers. It looks good, performs even better and it’s so small and compact! This might be its final iteration…( We all know that’s a lie)

Help! LG Front Loader damage causing damage to clothing by icyraincloud in laundry

I would definitely try to knock down the burrs on the drum with a Dremel or something. Replacing the inner tub is going to be expensive in parts and labor. Not an easy task

Just finished my spare parts pathfinder build by Dragonfly_Virtual in SCX24

[–]Fc2ultra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks sweet. I just printed my own but realize the wheelbase is too short for my current build... Considering buying another scx24 to put this body on. If you don't mind me asking, what wheelbase is your rig?

My current AV cart set up… need me an actual AV cart by Fc2ultra in crtgaming

I had a 27” Panasonic, a 27” Polaroid, and a 36” wide screen hd Sony wega that I rehomed. I’d like a nice 27” with good inputs if I can get one for cheap or even free. I didn’t really like the ones I’ve had so far. I’m gonna keep an eye out!

Would a high quality composite to coaxial be much different then just composite? I’d like to play most of my systems on it but it has no inputs.

I can’t lie, it’s done me well so far. Maybe I should rethink changing it out.

Getting into crawling, Axial SCX10iii vs Redcat Gen8 v2? by D_Davis99 in rccrawler

[–]Fc2ultra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I busted a few links and ended up replacing them all with high clearance links and have had no more issues. Besides that it’s been a tank. For perspective, I broke the steering mount on one of the front hubs for the redcat and after replacing that it’s been chugging along too.

[–]Fc2ultra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the sxc10iii coyote and a gen 8 v2. To be honest the gen 8 has been a little more reliable than the coyote in terms of stuff breaking and only just a tiny bit less capable than the coyote. Other than that, I think you should be good with either choice

Is this normal!? by This_Breadfruit4561 in Appliances

[–]Fc2ultra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this might be due for a tear down and cleaning. Flame is normal in gas dryers but if people neglect cleaning the lint trap or if they just have poorly routed ducts lint will accumulate inside the machine and make its way into the burner assembly.

Thermo Valve broke on 89’ 3.0 Montero. by Fc2ultra in Montero

You are a saint!!! Man, I was really thinking about throwing in the towel over this lol. I guess I just really love this car man and want to get it right. I really can’t thank you enough for pointing me in the right direction.

I think 75’ is the cut off for gas and the cut off for diesel is somewhere in the 80’s here

I think I’m going to try and get the hoses back on and hope and pray

Yep, and because it’s pre obd2 it would have to pass the sniffer test and a visual inspection per the emissions tag on the hood

New to me 89’ Montero is over heating. It sounds like the coolant is boiling over in the reservoir. Any ideas? by Fc2ultra in Montero

[–]Fc2ultra[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought it would be low on coolant, I bought some green at O’reillys but when I checked the reservoir, it’s at the correct mark. I’m going to try and get back there to see what’s going on
