[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 2891, member: 82"] Nice, i hope you have pics of it all for us :) I hope to get a chance to try and do the detent tomorrow afternoon, There is a bit of wear in the housing that the balls run in but i think rotating the housing 90 degrees will do the trick so the new balls won't run in the worn section. I felt guilty getting the detent balls from bobcat yesterday, the cost of them didn't even cover the cost of the paperwork! it cost me all of $2 for 4..... If your using acrilic paint, you don't want the temp too high, i have found with spraying any enamel that is quick dry, all the over spray makes like a bumpy fishish that is dull, some people call it “egg shells“. You really want a nice smooth coat as its MUCH easier to clean rather than trying to get the dirt out of the pores that the dried over spray makes, you can generally get it smooth by giving it a polish, but just how far do you want to go..... I hope that made some sense. I had the same problem when i used 2 pack on mine, when i did the lift arms it was getting late and the temperature was dropping (about 15-20 degrees C) so the paint dried slower and left a beautifull finish so smooth (don't mind the runs it also left). Unlike the chassis that was painted when it was 30+ degrees C, the paint dried quickly and gave a rough finish in some places that holds all the dirt and grime. I hope yours takes less time than mine has taken... [/QUOTE]
