    No, I think just 25+ years of taking these things apart. I also left the front and rear assembled, with a-arms and bulks so that helps

    50togo that's crazy, glad mine didn't turn out black lol. I used the rit liquid and quite a bit of water. I didn't boil it though just tap water as hot as it would get then dumped it in and left it.
    Thanks Craig, my motor and esc will be here friday, just in time for our snow lol! Gonna drive it anyways!!!!

    So I got my motor and ran my ERBE for the first time.....WOW!
    The carnage was epic, but when i did a back flip at about 30 mph the looks and jaws dropping on my friends face was worth it.
    Broke my front drive axle, spun the hub in the rim and cracked the rim open, sheared the hub axle pin and broke the wing mount. AWESOME!
