Description
I'm going to need some additional components in order to complete the next phase of testing. Right now, what we need most are thermoplugs and thermoplug adaptors! I'll explain what they're for later... Crank Greasefuse runs a shop near the entrance of the town. Go speak with Crank and get him to fork over the necessary parts. I don't care what they cost, just tell him to bill me later! I can't be bothered to negotiate right now. I need to prepare the modifications to the X-52 Personnel Armor!
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Simple Experiment
Now that you've delivered the necessary parts, I can begin testing my latest prototype! I call it the X-52 Personnel Armor! It will be nearly indestructible! Gallywix has always coveted my inventions and now that he knows about the X-52 I'm sure he'll be up to no good.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Debt Collection!
You need thermoplugs? Well, you came to the right place, kid. But I ain't giving 'em to you on credit. There's way too many shlubs who haven't paid me back the money they owe. I'm in over my head here, if I don't get paid fast, I'll be out of business in no time.
