361. Re: Painting Alodined bits - or Not? (score: 1)
Author: Fred Fillinger <fillinger@ameritech.net>

For sure an alodined surface is more corrosion-resistant than bare, but merely installing the pushrod will abrade some off. Except in salty environments, the aluminum bits inside the wing will not c

That has me thinking here, Pete. Is a gas strut really all that desirable? Perhaps some technology at least a few hundred years old: A 5/8" x maybe 6" long, partially slotted bracket, 1/16" steel. Th

That's a pretty clever arrangement, and sounds like at least two folks think the benefit of the gas strut is marginal at best. The effort to raise the door against gravity is a wash with the effort t

Can't exactly say what load rating is, but it appears to replace the old "ply ratings," and relates to max PSI for the tire. The Cheng Shin is rated at 70 max psi (8-ply rating), but filled to only 3

I should add I have a goof my original post. Cold cranking amps (CCA) per U.S. standard is 30 seconds, at 0-deg F, to maintain at least 7.2 volts. Be careful that any comparison spec is under that te
