Rocky Mountain Race Week Preparation: 10 Bolt Posi Install + EBC Brakes Upgrade! (Uncle Rob Yukon)

What happens here

The presenter applies the yellow gear marking compound to the teeth of the differential's ring gear using a small brush. He emphasizes painting a sufficient number of teeth to get a clear impression when checking the pattern. He also explains the theory behind the gear sweep pattern, indicating that it should be centered for optimal performance, and jokes about taking on the persona of Bob Ross while painting.

Goal: Apply gear marking compound to the ring gear for pattern analysis.

Tools and materials

  • Gear Marking Compound — Marking gear teeth

look at that what we're gonna do i have never ever ever done this before so if i look like i know what i'm doing i'm a good faker but i think you just painted on here you know with a good amount of teeth to be painted you want like a good coating so you can see the impression that it makes when it's like run like turning do it but i don't want to leave any like bald spots because that could be mistaken for sweep instead of you know painting mirror i don't think you need to paint this many teeth i'm just doing it because i can't i'm gonna paint all i'm painting tops and pink bottoms going inside out slides backslash and forth everywhere okay bob ross then you just just are using yeah i'm zen bob ross is my spirit animal bob ross was a military veteran who probably had ptsd and decided to paint things instead that's pure speculation i like bob ross i was just saying he was in the military well people probably don't know that i think you're supposed to let this stuff dry but i don't really know how logan's going
