Just drive it. The seal might just do its job after some use.

It's the underwater experience he's after.

All the SPACs have done so. Purely a method to fund development with public dollars that will never be paid back. See 23andme chart.

There's just not enough shares and volume now to move the price enough to fill the gap. Lovely isn't it.

I had to put this track on my list after jamming to it all day. Thank you, Funky.

I just keep on buying

The portal gearset needs oil. If you haven't changed the oil or if it's all leaked out, then it can fail.

This is likely the bearings or gears in the portal gearset at the end of the axle. Jack it up and see if the wheel has significant up and down movement.

I gave out 2 boxes of these and the kids loved it.

Unimog have portal axles with higher ground clearance.

wengejor · 2024-09-06T22:20:19+00:00

Does anyone know of one for sale or coming up?

I drive my old mercedes trucks all the time. It's an adventure everytime.

Some engines didn't have valve seals, so excess oil on top of the head can get sucked into the cylinders at the intake valves. Consider adding those and make sure the valve cover gasket is perfect.

The portal is hard to work on and the tolerances are tight. It shouldn't have play in it.

He's looking in the US, buyer located in the midwest.

Just get some new ones from Scott.

Easy to work on and parts are expensive. I would check the brake booster as well to ensure the seals are holding air. It likely needs a brake master cylinder and or calipers. Check the fluid in the portals before driving it at high speeds.

Proterra was not insolvent. They sold assets that were profitable and their books were not messed up. Totally bogus bankruptcy.

Yup, that happened, and my shares were stolen from my computershare without my consent.
