Re: WA Tech Day

Is there anything else I need to bring along on the day apart from the snorkel

Cheers
Wayne

I dont think so i will PM Chippy to see whether he has the big hole saw.

Open the box waylib and check the size of the hole needed. A 120 is 75mm from memory? Probably different for a 90 series. I have some so let us know.

Re: WA Tech Day

I have drawings of said bash plate.
I tried to set them up on my photobucket but no go for pdf's.
If you want me to send you some pdf's before the day I can email them.

PM me you email if you want the drawings.

If you can wait for the day I can bring some A3 size plans. A4 are just a little small.

Plans are the best that I can get off a cardboard cuttout so small adjustments maybe call for on the day of fitting.
Also the plans are for the standard type mounts, (bolts and spacers) Not the TECH DAY modified MOTOTRIM mounts that look alot better.
These are not included as they were done on the day and were not writen down.

It is not a small/ easy DIY, so if you think it is going to be straight forward, buy metal, drill holes, fit bashplate, then you will be let down.
You will need to buy plate, cut to size, bend plate, mark out and drill mounting holes, mark out and drill clearance holes for front diff, drain holes for gearbox, transfer box drain plugs etc.
If you have a machine shop at your disposal it will be alot cheeper. you could save money on material as well as save money at the sheetmetal worker if you have access to a welder,

Jeff.

Re: WA Tech Day

Send the template through to me Jeff and I'll see what I can do about getting a few made up.

You know the email address.

Re: WA Tech Day

After being told it would only take a few days to get my snorkel in, I have now found out that it is on backorder from ARB and should be delivered on the 13th. Cutting it a bit fine but will just have to keep fingers crossed.

Re: WA Tech Day

DOH, I'm out.... I will be becoming a god father on this day...

I am yet to hear back from Tyce at 4WD Action and I have also put the feelers out in regards to building a couple of bash plates as per Jeff's plans..

Re: WA Tech Day

Hi all

I am keen to come along mostly to see how to fit up a dual battery system and other auto electric jobs Spot lights, and UHF fittings. I will try to purchase a system before the day if possible. (would apreciate an idea on the most popular source and brand.)

I am trying to organise to go to the PP GTG 09 I am interested to know when you are leaving Perth. I can only leave after 1 pm Monday 29th

I also look forward to meeting other PP members

Re: WA Tech Day

G'day Matt

The more the merrier.

Have a look at some of the UHF install threads and decide on whether you want remote head or mic controls.
Then you get to decide on GME or ICOM.

As for the GTG .... I'm thinking Tuesday ... or even sparrows fart on Wednesday.

Cheers
Chippy

Re: WA Tech Day - Sat Nov 15

Moto - thanks for PM - will see everyone there.

Don't think a start time was ever decided, was it?
I remember we get kicked out at 5pm with 3 hrs of sunlight left during daylight savings :wink:


Matt, I've never seen Sharky stuck - maybe he doesn't need a winch! Although he did come VERY close on Leachy's birthday run and ruined anyone else's chances of getting out the way he did...

on the other hand, a winch would look great on my rig, and it'd get used :roll:

Could use the winch to get the Mazda out....
