I've often wondered, how common are places that can re-gas your shocks? It's not something I've ever looked into but often wondered.

Yeah I gave it some thought about who would have that tech too. There is guy in Geelong that sets up dirt bike suspension and gave him a call. Just been in to see him and it took him about 5 minutes to recharge and wouldn't take a payment. Nice guy. Chad's Dirtbike set-ups.Quote:

I normally get shocks charged at the local hydraulics shop. They have all gear, the gas and it's basically the same as charging an accumulator, which would almost be a daily occurrence for them.Quote:

This one has been rattling around in my head for a couple of years and once I began it turned to shit quickly. I have lost some hair over the last couple of months trying to make this work the way I wanted.
I got them to work about a month ago but was unhappy with them so threw thewhole lot out and started again. Glad i did.
No junk piano hinge. These are how they should be.

Nah Laser cut Acrylic Perspex. 4.8mm. Not as easy to work with as I was expecting to be honest.Quote:

The reason I believe that Cremulator Mate has mistaken it for glass is that Perspex is a brand name of Acrylic which is the Bees Knees for clarity especially with the bestest of the best fish tanks etc...
Polycarbonate we’re forced to use for playground stuff due to its indestructible little turds nature and greater fire resistance/melting drip timelines.
Acrylic for the win clear viewing just don’t lean on a tree branch or drill without clamping with a blunt burning drillbit as sharp ones corkscrew in way too fast and spider crack [emoji51]

Yeah I was very surprised at how much like glass it was to work with. What a MOFO. YouTube was my friend. The first set I made i had a couple of goes at. Once I was happy I had the whole lot programmed in and laser cut.Quote:

So I'm a bit of a Beast on Facebook Market place. Forever trawling.
Picked this jigger up a couple of months ago. I think it was $25 and still in its box. Never used. Local pickup in Geelong and all.
I took it out of its box today and put water in it for the first time. This will now be a water tank, pressure hose, and hand cleaning tap in the GQ forever.

That is pretty cool! Would be a bastard without the Dazwing though, opens up so much more space in the back of the wagons!

Yeah i would have mounted it against the left side windows facing the back. Side access is a winner for sure.Quote:

Had a productive couple of days. Had to nut out a few thing and figure out where I was going to pull power from but really bloody happy with the outcome.
LEF strip lights off ebay defused and ready to mount 5 for $18! Cheap as chips.

Had to figure out how I was going to mount these switches off ebay too. 19mm hole.
Inside diameter of 25mm conduit.......19mm!
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/03/33.jpg
Painted conduit yesterday. Cut 60mm tube on bandsaw today.

Sussed out how the 3 pole switches work by bench testing.

These are bloody handy for that. Jaycar. Cheap.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/03/36.jpg
Spent a lot of time pulling wires and splicing looms but stoked with the final setup. Everything is fused off existing cicuits off my rear subboard. Very pleased.
http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/03/37.jpg
How good is that. I can reach it from the DazWing side or the back seat side.

I ran a switch to each side switching a light to the back seat storage area. I pulled the back seat out for a Trip next week. So Good!!

Can you have 100 units ready for shipment by end of month?
Cause the GQ is heading to Tassie and the bog holes on $1000 track are Deep.
These will live in the GQ for life.
