Bought myself a 5ive-B

[Jshaff16]

First kit I've done in probably 20 years lol...last was my AE rc10gt. Way back when

Good you knocking the dust off your tools ?

 

[Jshaff16]

Negative. The DB spends plenty of time broken.

I was close to getting a 5b not long ago, then they ran out.
I have a 5t waiting for me now but I'm having second thoughts and can't make up my mind.

both??
love my 5ive an 5b?

 

[Jshaff16]

Weather is too nice today to tinker with the mistress. Fixed the dbxl instead. May do some building later til then out to bash on dbxl

 

[Jshaff16]

Came home to some more parts. It's getting there slowly.

Looks good but check the clutch housing, it looks like its for the smaller bores.

Me too. Ask me how I know. I just received my exchange from ddm today?

 

[Jshaff16]

Hey at least you admit to it. I was gonna say "change of plans my blue/silver theme went out the window" lol

My dbxl is all red silver and black. Shooting for a blue silver and white look...and obviously some black. Can't get around the factory plastics


Actually, how long did your return take? Or did you simply buy another and deal with return at another date? I have a feeling I'm sort of stalled after building the shocks

 

[crucialRC]

Everyone here knows I'm straight transparency. If I fek up I fek up? Turn around was about a week or so.

 

[Jshaff16]

Off to order more parts...overlooked the on off switch for the receiver, need proper clutch carrier. Still undecided on tires/wheels. I will NOT run the stocks. Definitely done gluing tires thats for sure.

Madmax giant grip ?? vertigo clutch housing

ive got the rovan knock offs on my dbxl...looking for more of a pin type...i think.

I believe the tires come glued now. You don't want to use the supplied on/off switch? Was the carrier the wrong one?

Uber spikes ????

[Jshaff16]

Oh yeah? where is said switch? Ill continue looking lol

And, in the end...Yes you were right its wrong

 

[crucialRC]

? My bad I was thinking L5T. I think you're right. I cant remember if it came with a switch or not. ?For some reason I thought it did. Maybe it just came with the rubber switch cover only. It was a long time ago?

 

[Jshaff16]

Yeah I've got the rubber cover. No switch. I've got the proper clutch carrier and a switch in shopping cart. Waiting til I come up with a few more items before I press go button.

However like I said earlier gotta build shocks and wait on paint here soon.

Pipe isn't here either. So definitely not rushing through this

 

[DougStar]

Nah no switch ??
