John, did you take the car into their workshop and get them to weigh it, each corner before selecting the springs? Did they fit the springs or you? I had them do the lot to ensure the right...
The rod will pivot in the rubbers, my front and rear sway bars were the same, not a lot of accuracy intended.
jaysee, I would route the cable into the roof gutter on the passenger side and sneak it across and to the rear of the snorkle, then down the back of the snorkle and into the gap between guard and...
I like both these concepts, however will need to see what I can make work. The HH antenna on the rear might limit my rear options, and the rack support legs might be just that bit close for the side...
How do you validate these numbers? Solar density across Australia varies from 300 - 600w/m2 density from what I understand, and the 1000w/m2 is achieved in outer space and used as lab rating. For max...
I run 2 x 200W panels on my rack. I went up from 2 x 60W shade tolerant canon panels that served me well, however I am a wasteful power pig when camping and want my food icy cold and drinks the same,...
I would not stuff with getting the broken one out if its not sharp against the rope. Drill and tap a new Hole or see what the other guys can suggest. Are you going to remove the winch from the...
If you can use the original mounting bolt, just do that. Alternately MudRunnerTD, Rossco, @NB have all used different knots and hillbilly chants i believe on their ropes with success.
The fairlead only sees zero load when the rope is sliding straight over it. Any angular pull into the winch outs load on the fairlead. Its a sliding load, so decreased by the co-eff of friction, but...
No, they use too much air. You need a compressor and large tank or a really high flow compressor. A few of the guys on here have battery units, I know MB has the Milwaukee brand, I bought the 240V...
Since I took the leap from the Dremel to the 240V die grinder, a whole new world of opportunity and pain has opened up. I am yet to really master the stability of the bit as have bent 4 burrs to date...
If it were me. I would chonk out the section of the bullbar. Do you have access to a grinder and the 1/4" dia shank burrs? I think the fairlead plate needs to be supported across its back, and i...
Good job, bet you are glad to finish it.
Colour designations are odd from the car companies. My BMW is colour Amethist Grey and its a metallic brown. The interior of the GQ is listed as blue, yet its clearly grey. Suggest you guy a can and...
You should be protecting the device first then the wire. If the device calls up a 2amp fuse, thats what you install. If the device is calling up a 15amp fuse and you have 10amp cable, upgrade the...
Should be fine as cables are typically rated at 10a although there is a 15a cable avail for trailer wiring as well.
Shorted to earth. I think we are talking in circles. If you have a main cable feeding a sub board, protect the feed cable as suggested with the 60 amp breaker, and the accessories off that board are...
I am sure they will trip at a point well before the insulation is compromised is perhaps the message. They are a cheap generic design and I have them in use and they certainly have worked for me when...
I agree with BB. Running a big cable is great for DC voltage drop, especially at low voltage. The accessories are protected by their own circuit fuse. You want to protect that supply cable from a...
