I have been studying up on electrical stuff. If you get a used tesla battery you can get 5.2 kw for ~1300. To contrast those drop in replacement lithium are 100 amp hour * 12 v = 1200 watt hours so 1.2 kw for $1000. $1300 / 5300 watt/hour = 0.245 = $0.25 watt/hour $1000 / 1200 watt/hour = 0.83...

Virgin lead in a lead acid gets you 300 cycles. Most lithiums get 3000 cycles and you can fully cycle the lithiums. I like the ability to drop them into an existing lead acid solution. When I get the box on the back I will have a sizable lithium bank. I plan on back charging my lead acid...

I have a leaky axle seal so I will be doing this job very soon. I have the tire off and am about to remove the brake drum.

OnShape can import and export the model in step and iges to be used with any other CAD. Another thing you may notice is that OnShape is free to individual users.

I found a LMTV with the "van body" and went and measured it. There is a giant frame area on the front of the box that can contain 2 air conditioners and I believe a power pack. each side has different clearance below those boxes. Spare tire side from the base of the box to the AC unit is 52...

I like how they use that space. How well do the fans hold up to dirt and water crossings?

my passengers side air ride went out as well. I believe the heat from the exhaust routed next to it is what causes that side to go bad first. I believe the drivers side should still be in good condition. Now that I have the old shock out I have some replacement air bags. If that's the culprit...

The seal kit is ~$50 if I remember right. The job is probably a day if you do it yourself. Maybe a half day if you have done it yourself. If you pay a shop to do it I imagine the price would be steep. If the leak is dumping inside the knuckle then it's the axle end seal (instead of the hub...

ok I found another gear maker: http://www.nitro-gear.com/Nitro-Ring-and-Pinion-Gears-s/106.htm

I'm guessing our ring/pinion are large because ARB didn't have a blank that was big enough to make a locker for them. Here are some of the details I could find: Product Description DIFFERENTIAL - SERVICE GEAR SET Status Active Weight 102.40 Unit Pack 1 UPC Code 737238534631 Brand Meritor...

I have found the gears listed for $1700 for a ring + pinion and I have found them listed for $2000 as well. I have no idea what the price of custom cut gears cost so I'll share whatever I find out.

ok us gears has a form to request custom gears but I don't know how to answer all the questions. So I'll give it my best guess. Does anyone else want some custom 2.90 ratio gears?

I contacted rushgears.com. They don't sell gears for automotive applications. They recommended: tci automotive motion industries

The video is awesome. I wish I could afford one. It looks like a huge upgrade. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk

Does anyone have any specs on the gears we want? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk

ok a little search turns up there are companies specializing in making replacement gears and custom gears. http://www.rushgears.com/

I used to work as a machinest. At first glance the gears look pretty standard. I think the pinion is the most compress to cut. I'll go to some cost estimates. Anyone know what kind of steel they use? I'm guessing medium carbon or high carbon with additives for long wear with heat treatment...
