use a joystick for those 2 functions...

OK, back to 'square one' . What are you trying to warm up ? Hands, torso, face ? Since I have a BX23s ,really interested.

Been here 7+ years, almost left very early due to the ads.... got the free adblocker+ and it works !

While side vision isn't too good it's far better than freezing your butt off while freezing rain pelts you in the face ! I added a 'winter windshield' to my BX23S and it's GREAT ! If I ever decide to put the free rear blade on ,a rear winter shield WILL go on as well . 1st I 'd have to get the...

should work fine, a 'yellow' spade lug will be needed. yellow denote 10ga wire. Blue is 12-14, Red is 16-18. Just be sure to properly crimp them and tape ! tape to keep from 'zaps' AND secure them so they don't fall out and ZZZZZAP !!

option 'J'... disconnect battery !, remove the 'scotch' connector, clean the wires really,really good, tin them, then wrap 'feed wire to 3rdfnx' around 'power' wire, solder very well, wrap with electrical tape. Now you have a solid connection ! Using taps or bullet adapters isn't the best...

I said 7.5 years ago, someone should make the 2 piece fan. So far 1600hrs , 80% in heavy offroad use, and the original fan is still A-OK, though my BX23s does have the factory guard.

just wait until you 'find' that skid you KNOW you'd moved out of the way a week a go........:oops:

BUT... does your BEV do the SAME actual WORK as your ICE ? I know several 'have both', use the BEV for short,one person hauls. need the ICE to haul a trailer or 4 kids and hockey equipment.

option 'B'. neighbour uses miniex to dig the holes, then drops in length of 6x6 1/4" wall steel tubing, slides 6x6 post into it, then backfills. doesn't have any issues. the 6x6 steel are cutoff/scraps. we weld into 3-5' lengths as he requires.

easy to tax,just scan and grab odometer reading every year,sub last years number, calculate tax, send bill.

Replace the wires with 'lamp cord' or 'test lead' wire ! I used to make 100s of test leads and yes Virginia, there IS a special wire for them. Very flexible and nice 'rubber' insulation. I finally used up the 2 500' spools a few months ago ( Belden mfr )

For giggles, I went to Ford Canada's website and got the cost for the SMALL battery, $43.885.05 + dealer install + disposal fee + 13% taxes. Now I'm sure they'll say it needs a new top cover ( +-,$1800) + 'shop supplies'. When 'out the door, you'll be over $50,000 Canucks, so 1/2 price of the...

NICE...love to see real hackers making things !! I settled on PICs 25 years ago,and well, too old to 'upgrade'. FWIW ..the water 'problem'. drill 5 or so SMALL holes ( #63 , IC pin size) both top and bottom of the cluster to allow air IN and OUT. it should help !

You may find that on the original PCB, one of those 1/4" tab is not properly soldered onto the PCB. It's a bit of 'magic' to get BIG tabs and itty bitty SMT devices to be properly soldered by machines.If you wait too long, to properly solder the big tabs, some small parts can fall off. If you...
