Just completed the entire process of tear down, clean, grease, oil, MOD and rebuild... Purchased a NEW body and custom painted it myself (as always...LOL) Now in the process of taking the stock (BLACK BODY in pic above) and stripping it down with DOT4 brake oil to repaint that one also (coming soon) ... But here is the complete project FRESH off the build block...
