Ok so i was putting all my electronics in my new 12l4, and decided to tape in a battery to test that everything worked(i still have no tires so i coudlnt run it).
Taping batteries in that thing is a pain in my arse, it probably took me a half hour and i still didnt do a good job.
taping batteries in my switchblade was easy.
is there some trick to this or am i retarded?
another question i have is the dampening disk, am i supposed to like sand that thing or lube it up cause it seems to move side to side to freely
Cut the appropriate length of tape first, run the tape up the end of the chassis up and loop it in front of the chassis brace, leave the front side of the tape underneath the chassis, put your batts in and tape it down with the end side of the tape that just looped thru the end of chassis, then pull the front side of tape thru the tape hole in front of the batts and up, tape the batts down.
Yes, you'll need lube in the dampening disk. Some use stealth diff lube, some use thick shock oil, some use even thicker stuff like Trinity purple stuff or 50k wt oil.
