    Standard. Foot on and off the pedal while he opened and closed the bleeder.

    That may also be contributing to the soft pedal. I have found these trucks don't always get the best results with the manual bleeding method for some reason. It is especially bad for 2009+ with the goofy module on the passenger side.

    Very happy with how this bulkhead fitting turned out.

    Here we go, another rabbit hole of a hobby. Already looking at upgrading the electronics so it’s faster and I may have already bent a front shock shaft.

    That's a hobby I'm glad I got out of. Almost had me again with the Tacoma RC, but I stood firm!

    You know....all this time I thought having two weeks off to be in quarantine would be fun. Well it isn't. I tested positive for covid yesterday morning after feeling lousy all weekend. It is day 4, I feel slightly better. But am already bored out of my mind.

    My fault. I didn't get vaccinated. This is my second infection, so it should be milder than the first (and it has been) my first go round nearly killed me and I didn't feel complete healthy for about 16 weeks. I'm 4 days in this time and already feel like I am improving.

    Dromida makes good stuff. I especially like their fpv capable drones.

    Well shit at that point you're pretty much asking for it lmao regardless, fingers crossed it's not as terrible this goaround.

    I had never heard of them until I started digging around. It's nice quality though, I'm happy with it, especially for the price.

    I hope not. Fever is gone, but I have zero energy and my arms and legs feel so heavy it is hard to move and get from the bed to the bathroom. I have pretty much just slept since I posted earlier.

    Oh, I was referring to the crushing boredom. Hope you start feeling better, bud.

    When I was off for 5 weeks during peak 2020 I found plenty to do. That was when my wheels first became blurple.
