oval'd hole in my tunnel. Suspension mount.

This thread "shows" a fix of a stainless "bushing". Tunnel is aluminum, bracket behind it (black part in his pics) steel in back of it. Both are enlarged.

If the pics don't show up there, perhaps this will work.

Have to find a place locally that polishes up semi's. Since I am taking part of the sled to a welder and if that needs to be welded the whole thing, I might as well take it to someone who can lay a really good polish on it too.

What are you trying to get welded? I'll do it free of charge for you if you'd like. I've also welded for the military and know my shit. ;)

Have to take the whole tunnel in for welding.  :)

 

 

Sean, if you need a bushing made, get me a sketch.

Went for a drive with the Miata yesterday and I felt like Cinderella as my german plates expired at midnight :lol: 

And I spend my Halloween dressed as a douche, ie driving a convertible in cold'ish weather :lol:

Just a little cooler. Probably 30min worth of work. I REALLY appreciate the offer. If you were closer I'd do it for sure.

After 8 years my ridgid drill battery finally went bad. Time to go buy a new drill. It could have waited till I got this last sub installed.

8 years of use out of a drill battery is great amount of use.  make sure you give it a proper burial :)

Different materials designed to do different things. Running a "heater" err voltage carrying wire along the material can steer it. ie, solid state plane flaps move either direction depending on heating or not-heating. Obviously balancing near the equilibrium is key for quick changes.

There was a documentary on TV a year or so ago using solid state technology on gliders for NASA. Supposedly could fly for several months without needing to land. Was to be used for "weather" observation.
