What's it cost?

I dont remember the cost. Might want to give them a call

I wonder if greenshields in everett has something similar...

Either them or Jim Greens I believe, We bought some for the race car not too long ago. I just cant remember which one.

thanks robin

I was finally able to figure out the relay pack for the rear winch--but unfortunatly I found it was bad (looses voltage on one leg) so once robin gets me a new one I will swap it out...

For what it is worth... when I talked to a supplier of electrical contactors for winches, same design as the Warn unit in the picture above... I was told they do not always function correctly when mounted upside down..

Hi Todd! :hi:

When I get the new one----I am ripping that one open to see whay that could possably be.....

Hi Todd! :hi:

Ummm... do I know you? :fawkdancesmiley:

in case you didn't already know.... my junk is still not done :booo:

Cool, I would like to know what you find out...

 

[crash2]

Cool, I would like to know what you find out...

The only reason I could figure why they would say that--would have to be spring pressure against the plunger that goes thru the soloniod.... But I will have to find out....

Nailed.

My guess, electro-magnet. Upside down, gravity no longer works in favor, but now against the connectivity.

But any soloniod I have ever worked with or relay(same principal) has never based its operation by gravity...

 

[briejer]

No need to get a new solenoid since it will be right side up when I'm driving

Yeah it wouldn't really make sense to rely on the force of gravity to be any kind of predictable direction on an automobile part when it could be subjected to 1G forces in virtually any direction with a little effort (or with Robin driving ). Not to say that it couldn't be that way, but if it were, that would be stupid.

Looks like the end for the swaybar.

That's what it looked like, but didn't know

And it being a little bent surprises you?:eeek:

No, i'm not surprised, but for a rig like robins, i probably would have used something larger than the 3/8->1/2 solid... 1/2->5/8 tube, and some high angularity rod-ends...

On some of the electric hoists we service at work, they have contactors that rely on gravity to open the contacts. It has a weighted plunger that pulls up when you energize the coil and drops back down when de-energized. If mounted upside down, the contacts close on their own.

Works great on a hoist mounted in the ceiling but like 64FJ40 said, it's probably not the best design for a rig that bounces around and shows it's belly on a regular basis.
