    Mac's Car Refresh

    I discovered a task less enjoyable than cleaning and repacking CVs. I chased all the threads (left and right handed) on all my rear suspension links and installed new heims. What a pain in the ass! But...it's done. Went over the engine and put a wrench on everything. Installed and clamped...

    AZ buggy registration.

    Good question. I do know they DO NOT send renewal notices. This is one of those...I'd call AZ MDOT. https://azdot.gov/mvd/contact-mvd

    Ok...hold up. :ROFLMAO: biden and newsom are on record saying they would extend EV tax credits for EVs...EXCEPT Tesla. Yeah, that's not a lawsuit. No EPA limitations for Blue Origin or Virgin Galactic rocket companies...BUT...EPA restriction on SpaceX. obama started this bullshit with...

    ADHD wins again! Cleaned the garage and reset for the next phase of the car. The plan was to focus on the car ....THEN...I decided to clean my boat and put a train horn on it. Now I've been going over the boat and making sure it's ready for season. I'll get back to the car this week.

    Shifting to the next phase on my car. So, clean up the garage a bit and reset. Go over the engine and make sure everything is tight and clamp hoses. I need to chase on the threads on my rear suspension links and install the new heims. Maybe get to installing the rear suspension.

    New to me 4 seat SU Ultra lite

    Angel, Congrats on the new car. I would talk to Fox and see exactly what you need or even Kartek. Kartek bought the "extras" when Fox discontinued making certain shocks. They don't advertise it but if you talk to Chris there, he can help you. That is the 4 seat version of my car with the...

    03/07 UPDATE Electrical all checks out. The issue was one wire was connected on the wrong really pole and yes, causing a looping issue. (@John@Outfront , Thanks for the input). So a reposition of that wire and everything works as advertised. I was cringing at the idea that I might have...

    Not sure I'm following. I have a power distribution that has a main battery disconnect. From there, the power distribution feeds the relay power through breakers and the Switchpro. From the Switchpro, I have a main power on/off (button 8) then an ECU button to turn the ECU on (button7)...

    Old School 2 Seat Alumicraft Rebuild

    I used rivnuts where I could. They really clean things up and reduce hardware frustrations. I used all stainless steel rivnuts and hardware for this. Pretty reasonable on Amazon. Tractor Supply sells Grade 8 bulk hardware by the pound. It's pretty awesome and you just throw what you need in...

    Old School 2 Seat Alumicraft Rebuild

    Awesome to see the progress. A couple of thoughts: - Wherever you plan on having electrical, weld a bolt on the frame for a good ground. Put one near the battery, engine, dash, wherever. These are great, solid points instead of drilling and screwing grounds into the frame everywhere. It will...

    We have power! Having a configuration issue. Everything works as advertised with the exception of ECU power. It comes on but when you try and turn it off through the SwitchPro, it cycles the fans and won't turn off. You have to kill the battery.

    Pretty much done with the wiring. Tomorrow I'll program the SwitchPro and test everything out. Definitely happy with how it's turned out. I wanted clean and organized wiring, this now all makes ls sense to me.

    Mac's Car Refresh

    Lots of work this weekend. Got the engine harness married with the computer harness. Checked, loomed, heat shrunk and now installed. I did forget one sleeve of heat shrink and ended up unwinding the main connectors to slide a piece on. After all this work, I wasn't going to have one joint...

    I did tape around the bundle about every foot and if more than 2 splices in that foot, I put an extra tape wrap. The solder heatshrink splices really do a great job. They glue into the insulation on the wire too.

    Fueltech uses a touchscreen start button. I'm wiring up my Switchpro to be a master on/off and then a button to turn on the Fueltech. I'm using the solder/heatshrink slices/terminals.
