Tony's Screw kit
#1
Does it come with like directions on which screws go where. I am wondering becuase I want to know if I can take my truck apart and clean it before I get the kit, or wait to see which screws go where before I take it apart.

I am just wondering because I am a little bored because I can't drive it and would like to clean it and have it ready before I get the kit.

Ok do you think I would be ok if I took it apart and just sort of winged it on which screws go where?

Or as you take it apart, just replace the screws that you take out with matching ones from the kit.

I use the manual for the ones I'm not sure of.

Is there a manual for a Dace predator? That's what UE-maxx has.

I would just use the t-maxx manual for baselines and adjust screw sizes as you see fit.

Thanks guys.

I am going to clean it really good when as I am taking it apart. I also have to get some stripped screws out. That should be fun.

Get some good hex drivers before you start installing the new screws... I wish I did.

No problem Dan.

What size/how many hex drivers should I get? I seen a picture of Rob's drivers and I think it was 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3.

I just got done taking my truck apart except like 4 stripped screws and one cracked off screw in my bulk.

The RDlogic set came with the following: 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, and 3mm. I've used them all except the 3mm.

I got my truck all apart now.

I am wondering if I should put lock tite on the screws again taking a chance of stripping them out again. I could always just check the screws before I go out and drive to see if they are loose.

I still am going to put lock tite on the screws for like the engine mount, from the chassis to the bulkhead, and stuff close to the engine (servo mounts etc).
