Making a couple transmission controllers?

Maybe one or two. CNC experimentation burns up a bit of it.

I would be interested in buying one from you in the future once my suspension is squared away.

I was thinking, cool build turbo 4runner, but then I kept reading on. Shift controller is just over the top and left me awestruck. I probably shouldn't be chiming in but on the air horns are you going to point them down so that it allows collective moisture to drain?

Slightly, just not enough room to position them perfect but we'll see.

My air valve showed up today, maybe I can get my horns hooked up this weekend. Just need some fittings and air hose.

[Clownmeat]

Yeah, and walmart is right across the street too.

Got the horn mounted and it's on the way back together.

 

[fightman80]

HA HA! Sweet!

 

[Clownmeat]

At least the idiots that pull out in front of me will have fair warning before they are run over.

How much was the horn? ive been thinking about getting one... still undecided.

I got mine for free off my dads cement truck he doesn't use, but it's a $130 horn, plastic versions are cheaper.

More testing, seems to be ready for a in-vehicle test in the near future.

 

[Clownmeat]

Tested at 14 volts today, still going with no problems. So it's looking like everything is good enough to go ahead and make the first real PCB for this thing and start soldering together a finished product this Friday.

LOL...Probably more than half. It's been about 2 months since conception but the paddle shift project is finally getting close to a reality. Lots of progress on the controller (the scary looking thing). Here is some stuff to refresh you.
