    Good news Paul,
    it must have been one hell of a trying time.
    The bloody smoke alone must have been hell, and full of toxic gases.
    Here near Mildura we have had a few days where the bushfire smoke has rolled in and it certainly has a toxic odour to it
    and it would be absolutely nothing compared to what it would be in the fire zones.

    Cheers, Mick.

    solenoid question

    Not sure how to wire up solenoid on my vehicle.......... older 2a with starter button

    IMG_0356.jpg soleniod

    IMG_0359.jpgwhere does terminal "A" go to, and Terminal "B"

    I would imagine one goes to the ignition but which one and what is the other for?

    Cheers Paul

    Terminal A supplies 12volts at crank only. Terminal B is your starter solenoid activation terminal. You need the battery to be connected to the starter motor. The starter button usually takes the place of the starter solenoid. But you don't have an inertia reel starter fitted(original type starter motor), so now the button is just used to activate the starter solenoid. Cheers

    got the guards on so I can continue with wireing and have something to fix to

    IMG_0371.jpg IMG_0373.jpg military chassis certainly lifts the body

    IMG_0378.jpg IMG_0379.jpg I'm thinking its a little high at the front

    IMG_0375.jpg I'll move the springs to the top hole....not a job I'm looking forward to

    IMG_4434.jpg My original concept drawing....pretty happy with proportions in reality

    You need to realise that at the front at least, you must use the standard shackles if using the top hole, and extended shackles if using the bottom one, otherwise, the steering castor is wrong and will cause steering problems.

    Not as big an issue at the back.
