    @Coot83 Have you been able to play a little bit of WR??? :transformer::notsure:

    The Vityaz or Golem are good medium bots to start with mainly because of the different weapons configurations that you can have, in my humble opinion. If you can, also try to save up on either a Natasha, LEO, or Griffin (i.e. the heavy bots).

    Most importantly, SAVE THAT GOLD!!! You need to open that 5th hangar slot ASAP!!!

    Upgrade your weapons first. I like the longer ranged weapons (i.e. +500m ranged) because your chances of survival are greater. Hence, gameplay is longer for you.

    Has anyone removed the rear 3rd member on their 2nd gen? There's a step to put the locker fork to the locked position to give room for the 3rd to come out. How much force does it require to put it in lock? I was only able to move it by about 1/4". Trying not to force anything and chip a tooth.

    Got the sumbitch out. I had to turn the pinion flange a few rounds for things to line up inside, then the locker lever shifted about an inch over. The 3rd would get hung up on the way out otherwise.

    Yes sir. The front was much worse. But I have both out now. The battle is only half won. Feels good saving some money and learning in the process.

    Yotamasters quoted me $1100 just to swap in new gear set into my diff for the front, that's with me removing the diff and bring the clamshell to them.

    ECGS is sending me a complete regeared front diff with their cv bushing, with 2 day shipping for $800.

    I'm swapping the rear with another member here. So that's almost a wash.

    Only advise I can offer is to not do it alone without access to a lift.

    I have checked it out, but never got a chance to enter a game. My ass had been doing the baby steps I guess. Appreciate all your insight brother, I need to start gaming!

    So, on a side note the faa it turns out only has slots on the east right now for hiring and so I need to see if they do not fulfill those slots then the west can lobby to take them since the west is slightly overmanned. I think I’m going to accept a 6 month to permanent hire out in Arizona in Scottsdale tomorrow. The fiancé is pretty excited about it and I will likely need to move there in the next 4 weeks. Going to be nuts to transition out, but I’m digging what I see about Scottsdale. If the faa comes back a little later then I can always jump ship, but I’m ready for a change to say the least! Doesn’t mean I won’t have to move a little later, but atleast I get to leave the east and be on the same time zone as you assholes! :D

    Yea man pretty stoked to know I’m out of this bitch! Don’t know if I let down @TXpro4X4 though.

    How far is Scottsdale from you Danny?
