How do I get the end cap off to change the brushes?

And why did Hitachi put in two +ve brushes but only one minus? 

 

What model starter?

Looks like 88690-60190 might be the superceded part number @Bearded Baldy

Fuck that's cooked

I've got a few ideas, depending on what you're trying to do and how much torque you need and power available to drive the motor.

But yea, keen to know. Or PM if you want to keep it secret 

Hell yea, I need one of these.

Those drivers are only expensive because they're 0-10V dimming control. 

You could use non dimming constant current driver instead.

I might have a look later to see what will work

Entrant list added to first post. 

Another thing is, who is willing to follow us around driving a vehicle for the weekend?

@Hemi keen?

Hello Joe, what you have there is a fucked armature. 

Kind regards,

I used a 2 speed electric one from a Volvo 850 I think, on my 13B. It was awesome.

I might even have a spare one

Fletch is bang on with charging advice, redarc stuff is really nice and safe but criminally expensive, keep an eye out for second hand stuff if you're not in a hurry.

Run those panels in parallel, you'll want all the power you can get.

I'd run a 24v winch from the main batteries and run a lithium house, have you got winch already? Unless you find a cheap PTO, that would be super sweet.

What about sal 4HU?

Soap is cheap.

@Nominal it's impossible to say without seeing it, I avoided doing drum bearings and seals because it takes forever and was never worth it.

I've had some success with a desulphator and charger on a battery for a few weeks.

This is hardly news, been going on for years.

Just slam your shit so they can't get under it.

Unless you're fitting much bigger tyres, don't bother going higher.

Like kpr says, they all do it. I've repaired lots of Digi dash stuff off that era too.

Would a normal electrical wholesaler have this sort of thing, and be able to crimp a lug on the end?

They'll have the cable and lugs, but won't crimp them for you.

Whatever you do, don't be tempted to solder them. You could try bribe an auto sparky to crimp them?

25mm double insulated flex is most commonly used.

Sounds like a good opportunity to replace it with a 4.6 from a range rover.

I dunno why you're complicating this, just goto the tyre shop and tell the guy what you want. Buying second hand tyres can get fucked for a daily tbh, you gotta check the date code to see how long you got till they fall apart.

I've used motor treads in the past and he's been great for doing exactly what I asked of him.

This thread sucks, do you ever finish anything?

It's only 6A, I'd just run it through a switch.

Unless you really had your heart set on putting a relay in.
