Thanks for the warning. I had not intended to try that but in thinking about it given your failure that does make some sense. The motors would have far more power at 24v and the plastic teeth don't look particularly strong. So far I'm at the running wiring stage after installing the motors and...

It's a 10 minute fix. If that. I'm actually in my PDP right now installing some power window wiring and a 12v distribution bussbar. All you have to do is let the motor park, loosen the bolt, turn the linkage till the wipers are where you want them to park (which is where the linkage bar is...

I wouldn't hold your breath. I know and know-of several former employees and customers of Acela that don't have really excellent things to say about the owner and management. The "product" suffers from the management's use of cheap Chinese and Amazon parts, old surplus tires, and other issues.

You're over thinking it. Also I've already had this problem and fixed it. The nut on the motor came loose. For the arms to get into the grill area they would have to come loose from their pivots and since both arms are now parking at 1 o-clock that hasn't happened. They are still timed relative...

Huh? Acela builds trucks, yes. What are you getting at exactly?

Ronmar has a good point - you may have an argument for getting a substantial refund since the truck will almost surely have issues being registered with the paperwork they are going to give you. You should also ask them to please fix the paperwork side of things - you can show them a VIN decoder...

The home position is set by rotating the arm on the motor. Pull the PDP panel and it's accessible. The nut has backed off and allowed the arm to slip on the tapered/splined motor drive and has thrown off your timing of the home position and wiper position.

The videos you saw were all done in 2nd gear. 1st is much slower.

His truck is a 2000 M1088 with the 330/860 3126b I believe he is tipping the scales around 24k lbs with his habitat. Test drive felt really good. Very smooth shifts and didn't lack for power that I could tell anyway. Took about 12.5 hours but that was with an hour break for lunch and to wash...

It's a 3126b engine - trucks made after 2005 have C7 engines. It can't be newer than that. And by the VIN it's a 2003.

Why go to all the bother of modifications to the mounting and wiring to only get 5 more amps? If your going to do it, get at least a 200 amp alternator.

You just connect the output from the switch to the output from the disconnect relay. Do you have the old relay with all the little wires on it? Get the new one that's completely enclosed. Those had problems. Here's the PS Magazine article on this issue...

In your hand drawn diagram there - it's not positive and negative that you are dealing with - it's +12v and +24v and the negative is the chassis for both. Looks like you are missing the +24v? Check your battery terminals and cables first.

Yeah - looks appropriately configured for a 2003.

Appears to be much heavier than the trailer is rated for - to haul the vehicle on top of it that is....... I believe based on some googling that this is actually a gear trailer designed to be pulled behind on the BC Customs side-by-sides. Carrying equipment, supplies, and fuel. It has no...

Yeah I don't think that will be all that difficult.

Kinda what I figured we would see. There's a small factory's worth of machinery being flung around at high speed in our drivetrain. Running all that stuff at double the speed is going to require fuel. The study that showed 22% improvement stated it was mostly due to final drive ratio and...

Sorry - others have claimed I'm trying to pump up sales because the designer of the ECO Hubs is appreciative of my review and programming his ECM so he is including my information with every sale in case people need my assistance with correcting their speedo or increasing their performance, etc...

The automatic is not significantly more inefficient when the TC is locked. Why do you suppose the ENTIRE automotive industry has adopted automatics for better fuel economy and control? Also it's a 5 speed up to their test speed not a 4 speed, and if you surpass 65 mph you can easily get into 7th...

DUDE! Where did you get my picture!? That's amazing - I look exactly like that BTW. I'm quite a bit more bald though and my glasses are thicker and my lower lip can't cover my teeth quite as well but hey - that was probably using a Beauty Filter on my phone. I'm flattered :love: I don't charge...
