rattle can man

I don't recall building this kit. I have no answer on stabilizers, but instead of filing just one surface, can you remove some material from both parts? If the chassis is too low compared to the body, it is likely you need to remove material somewhere (likely that interior/ drive shaft tunnel area)

I have the kit somewhere in my stash. I will see if I can find it. you just want the suspension assembly, correct? it may take a day or so. Ihave enough kits to open my own shop.

Any suggestions on a tool to remove paint from the ribs of a pick-up bed? my paint job came out bad. I placed the parts in 90% isopropyl and it came off easy, except in the recessed area of the bed. Carving tools are too wide, dental pick are too small (and likely to leave scratches). sanding twigs are barely too wide. Thanks in advance.

I'm just finishing spraying several kits to see me through the next year. I do my spaying outdoors and away from windows, and of course wear a mask. It's too cold to paint in the winter and too hot in the summer. When it's 90 plus paint goes on with quite a bit of orange peel if you are not careful. And of course don't forget the humidity causing the paint to blush.

If you mix and match paints and coatings, you need to allow plenty of dry time between color and clear coats. The different solvents take different amounts of time to evaporate. Enamel takes much longer than lacquer to completely dry so you may need to wait 30 days or more before top coating enamel with lacquer. another thing to avoid reactions is just spraying very light coats and allowing time for the multiple coats to "flash" between coats. When in doubt. experiment on scraps.
