At Ace Hardware, Benjamin Moore, the FSS colors are listed under "US Government"

Rectifiers are cheap. If you have solar or battery, it should be no trouble to feed such a system with a 400hz generator rectified to DC.

The K&N style filter is the absolute worst you can put on a dirtbike. You need oiled foam. Oil isn't particularly important. This is a 30 horsepower machine. It will tolerate anything. Diesel engine oils have soot dispersants. That's all you need. If the brakes still have DOT 5 and weren't...

JB weld can work. Drain the coolant, end drill the crack, V out the crack, clean clean clean, then apply. Most people will skip at least one of these steps which is why they get bad results and then blame the epoxy. The right epoxy properly applied should be permanent. Be wary that the...

Most electrical wire is PVC or polyethylene based insulation. These tolerate all oil types. Only EPDM rubber is sensitive (SO cord). That's why I say it really doesn't matter what system you use. Use the one you can get. If you do have SO cord, coat with silicone based oils.

Broken bolt extraction from aluminum is really easy once you learn how to do it.

You will need an acid to remove corrosion. Maybe citric acid would work? It's not very strong but leaves no residue. Personally, I would just replace the screws. The terminals and bars are all copper and you'll find them to be a-ok under the screw heads. Afterwards, hose it down with your...

Mine is worn down 2-3 thousandths. I just put new bearings on and ran it. Wheel speeds aren't very high, this is a fairly forgiving application.

The bearings are clearance fit on the spindle and can and will spin which wears down the spindle. My truck has worn spindles.

The DOT 5 thing is funny. There is zero difference between DOT 3 components and DOT5. But, if you mix the fluids it will ruin the components. When I bought my truck there was DOT 3 in the brake system and it caused the diaphragm on the master to swell in that chamber. The rear wheel cylinders...

Timken doesn't sell their own bearings. This applies for all aftermarket suppliers. What was good yesterday may be different today. Always keep this in mind.

Yes, you're missing one. You can see witness marks from the bolt that used to be there. It would be wise to replace it. No, it wasn't sheared off. There is no way that bolt could see forces that would cause it to shear.

If you have a hole through it you can use an EZ Out. Put it in your oven for 20 minutes at 300 degrees and then use the EZ Out while hot. Don't force it, it should come out with modest effort. You don't want to break the EZ out.

You may want to consider polyurethane sealant. Silicone is not paintable.

Are you going to open it, clean, and reseal or are you going to try to slather product all over it?

You'll want to replace your wheel cylinder. The axle oil will damage the rubber components on the wheel cylinder. It's also possible the wheel cylinder was the source of the oil. Remember, these trucks use a silicone oil for the brakes instead of traditional brake fluid.

OEM parts are almost always best. Be weary chassis components with zerk fittings. These are problematic because the correct lubricants for modernish vehicle suspensions are NOT available at the parts store and are typically very expensive to purchase. The rubber seals and components used in...

You snapped it while installing? You should be able to remove the remains with a pair of pliers.

As I understand, the risk from CARC is the silica content. Silica is not harmful when ingested so it is not like lead. If it's on the ground it's ok. It is bad if inhaled. So you have two options, wear a respirator or don't make dust. Wet sanding means no dust and makes your paper last longer...
