External Power Connector

[Manta22]

The front suspension is now finished and aligned, except for toe-in which I'll set to zero later. I re-made my anti-roll bar down links to get a little more clearance around the bottom of the upright and around the coil-over adjusting nut.

Today I mounted a big electrical connector that will allow me to charge the battery or to start the engine using an external 12V battery. It is made by Elcon and rated for beaucoup amps. It is mounted with 4 ea 10-32 Ti screws into steel Riv-nuts.

I measured the dimensions of a panel in the cockpit that I'll need to cut out. More rivet fun coming up!

That is a great idea! I'm always having to deal with trickle chargers and those starting issues around weak batteries.
