[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] You know.... truly the hardest part of this whole project has been THE SCHEMING,[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] not THE WELDING. Just figuring out what is the best thing/or way to do something. like this gas filler, it has taken FOREVER[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/frown.gif[/img] to make the choice of where to put it, and then which lights to go with. HOWEVER...having this BBS has been SUCH a big help.[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] Without this, we would have already made some big fat regretable mistakes,[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/blush.gif[/img] and would have wasted some dough.[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/frown.gif[/img] There are SO MANY different Jeep samples out there,[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] and I check out every one that I see, just looking for ideas. We also just decided to go with three seats instead of two, with the single rear seat alongside a storage box and demountable to make room for a cooler/luggage/stuff. Yeah, we usually don't go off road all that much[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/wink.gif[/img] except for on the family farmstead, or when it is snowing so hard you can't FIND the road. Last summer the ZJ saw mud for the first time in 70,000 miles.[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/crazy.gif[/img] By the way....the transformer flunked the test. Too much circulating current on X-1[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/frown.gif[/img]. We had a little over 10,000 AMPS on the secondary bus, and I think the internal connections are too close together,[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]because it was showing heat near the tank lid at X1.

[img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/smile.gif[/img] The way to check that out is to put your ear to the tank at X-1
to see if the oil is boiling so to heat the tank at the X-1 [img]/wwwthreads_images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
YES I'M JOKEING

But i know of a guy that stood by a oil boiling BRK trying
to let people hear the oil boil thru a 2-way radio as they
where trying to tell him to get out of there.He could not
hear them because he had the button pushed on his radio.
Well the tank blew on the other side of him and left him
unhurt. Fools and drunks?????????
