Now all TJM shops use solder and heatshrink on all
trailer plug installs never had a problem since
Solder might be better than scotch locks but it will fail way before a proper crimp. That's why NASA solders nothing.
I agree for the most part but, actually, NASA soldered everything when they alledgedly lobbed a few blokes onto the Moon.Quote:

I must have soldered about 200 bifurcates before I got enough to pass.
Crimping is now the standard in aerospace and rightfully so due to repeatability, quality assurance, ease of inspection and weight saving.
You're so clever evilQuote:

Glad to see the last of those suckers I tell ya.
Therm-a-Rest BaseCamp self-inflating mattress. XL version will fit nicely in my ARB single swag...just have to wait for it from the 'States now...:(
We splice joined 7 /067 cable then soldered at tech when doing our apprenticeships, never used it in the field.
That takes me back
I could imagine...Quote:

Bugger if you had a bit of a hot spot in the middle of the board. Locomotives used mainly spade lugs for medium voltage contactor control, crimped and/or soldered lugs for high voltage motor control.
Mongrel job re-soldering joiners in while standing between traction motors.
Just awaiting the postage costs and then it'll be sent..
So far communications have been excellent with the seller and they have been more than happy to link videos showing different notes..
Also a egt socket added at no extra cost..

Full spare belt and hose kit (kindly put together and plastic sealed by PatrolApart) as backup for family trip to warmer weather in September:-)
Can't wait, CNE Victoria today has just proven it's 3rd season in 1 day theory, waiting for snow here now 4th :-)
You should put the new hoses and belts on the truck Mark and keep the used ones for spares.

Yeh he is a nice bloke. I actually picked up my Runva winched from him at his Packenham store. Although I saw somewhere that the store is now closed and he's only trading online?
Yup that's right. Had to close upQuote:
