Re: PFB's Vario JD 850D

Nope, those are RC4WD they make them in 2.2 and 1.9

Whole garage is dirty. The bikes don't have a chance at keeping clean between sparks flying from the rally car or rc builds.

Re: PFB's Vario JD 850D

Not sure on the tires, hopefully they'll hold some weight stock. Otherwise I'll stuff more foam or plastic bbs in them.

I can make you a set, it'll be after Indy though.

Re: Idea for something to do at truck shows. Truck Pulling

Re: PFB Tools

Rural King has an IR 80 gallon that's pretty reasonably priced. Just stay the **** away from an oilless unit, that's what this one is.

Re: Soldering Irons which ones best?

Re: PFB Tools
