Well, at least I feel like I accomplished something. The kiddo is sick (high fever, throat hurts, etc) so he stayed home from school. I stayed home from work to watch him. Got back from the doctor, and figured I need to change the oil and rotate tires on the daily driver. So I just finished that up. Here's to being (somewhat) productive!

BTW, you guys already seeing gas prices starting to climb, quickly?

I need to get some work related stuff done, but I might turn some wrenches on the RC8Be as well. I really need to paint this spare body I have, and I should probably find the source of that ticking sound, although I'm wondering if what I heard were rocks that also scored the plastic on the inside of the wheel.

I've turned all the wheels, and I don't feel any inconsistencies in any of the differentials. The CVDs seem fine, and the suspension isn't binding. I'm thinking I may need to remove the motor and see how freely the drive train spins. I'm hoping it's not a trashed hub bearing.

How often do you guys rebuild your CVDs?
