whats the point of this? lighter?
yeah, lighter and the original ones can go bad. This one was cheaper than a new original one. Oh and it turns the accessories slower, main benefit. Even with the Polaris wheels the power steering works 100% (cold/just started).
Looks good, as seems to be the norm with the things you do.
Envious of those welds seen on the truck intercooler. I bought an AC/DC tig welder myself, and the globs of molten metal between two aluminium parts holding them together that i come up with are not exactly as beatifull as those ones there. Steel is OK, that i can do.
I might have asked this before, but please do remind me again, where does that cooling fan come from? 940?
Thanks! I want the car to stay together wherever I take it
About welding alu, as you can imagine, practice practice. first 1/2 of this year I had to weld a lot of aluminium at my internship, that really helped. But even then the first welds arent as nice as the ones after some freshing up. Before I welded the IC i didnt practice but they turned out good.
The Efan, Boris is right. There are some small differences through the years but they all work. The 940/960 style has a ground lead with a wire terminal and longer wires, the 850 version has a plug and shorter wires. Some very early ones are 1 speed but pre-wired for 2 speed with the relay etc.
Oh and here a pic of the car with my brothers Polaris rims:
Need to get my own set repaired/powedercoated.
