• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

What lubricant should you use on a brake pedal?

The pivoting on the axis or the slight pivoting of the rod connections to the brake pedal would possibly show some wear in about a million miles. The brake is not in constant use. For 99.99% of the time it is just sitting there in the neutral position waiting to be pressed. After about the 4th or 5th new engine, you might need to check the wear on the brake pedal pivots. Putting just about any kind of lubricant on the pedal pivot that might reduce wear, would also attract dirt and grit, holding it in place and doing more harm than good. Bearings in the brake pedal pivot of my model appear to be sealed bearings. There is normally no need to lubricate sealed bearings. They are pre-lubed before the seals are installed.
