That does not compute (in my tiny little brain, anyway). In that case, just cut the axle tubes shorter. Seriously, I go to a lot of trouble to get my QC installations to be pretty close to right, mix and modify parts, etc., so I really don't know what to tell you. BUT...the AMT double dragster kit has two pretty good earlier style QC units, typical of several in other AMT kits with steel axle bells...and a bajillion other cool parts too.

What kinda car, what period are you wanting to put one under?

This is what it's supposed to represent, more or less. Cast aluminum axle bells. Not the best one to start with for a street car running the older style QC.

Look here at 2:38...

Complaining about everything was the most obvious real talent of some models I've known.

The upside is that now you know how to make really cool Halloween spider webs...just in time.

Fun fun fun with models while snacking on dates, dates, and more dates.

A girl I was considering getting involved with asked why I had so many models, 'cause "you can only play with one at a time...and aren't they expensive?" I asked her how many $400 dollar pairs of shoes she could wear at one time (already knowing she had a closet full). Her response was about on the meltdown level you get if you answer "it's not the pants" when asked the classic "do these pants make my butt look fat?" No more romance there, for which I'm daily thankful.

"Date" is probably going to trigger a whole new crop of those ads we get because everyone talks about "models".

Seems like "one world" government would be a pretty good idea on first thought: improved overall efficiency, no wars, etc., but like a lot of "better ideas" it won't work when the worst aspects of human nature (at our average state of philosophical and intellectual development) are in play.

I'm afraid I'll see my past catching up with me...or...SQUIRREL!!!

Must be wonderful to have a wife who has her own interests, isn't jealous of time you spend doing what you enjoy, and is secure enough in her own identity...and value to both herself and you...that she doesn't need constant companionship and reassurance.

Finding this quote by Richard Feynman kinda made my day: “Never confuse education with intelligence; you can have a PhD and still be an idiot.”

That question is as answerable as "why do so many highly 'educated' idiots think they're really superior?"

Years of education don't seem to be doing much in the way of turning out generally competent, capable, thinking graduates who can tell the time, figure a tip, or find their way across town without a handheld substitute brain and the requisite app.

Very nice. Work like this is really making me want to get into big trucks. Slick idea for the headlights, too.

You're very welcome, sir. Glad you found it to be helpful.

Your answer is here, grasshopper:

Magazines with a capacity of over 10 are just as much the cause of what they're blamed for as kitchen drawers with more than 10 spoons are the cause of obesity.

Hurty (potentially hurty, anyway) pass times are discouraged by many of today's helicopter parents.

Man, that looks good. Nothing special here either...just a hearty Tuscan pork and lentil stew, with warm buttered black bread and a cheap California Pinot Noir. Pumpkin muffin for dessert, and dark, strong, black coffee.
