bsneon98 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Such a beautiful build. I cant wait to go all out on a car one of these days. So much hard work and effort put into something that truly pays off.

More to come on that soon. I replaced my hatch struts on the tahoe this year with Tuff Supports. Before the hatch wouldnt raise by itself until i pulled it 50% or more of the way up. Now with those it pops open around 25%. I did my access window too and all i have to do is push the button and it opens up completely. Heres their site/catalog. Should be able to find the ones you want/need and grab them off of amazon for a little better price. Theyre not all that expensive anyways though http://tuffsupport.com/Pages/Pages/Product-Catalog/4.aspx SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No joke, I momentarily shorted a single cell and wow... The sparks were way stronger than from a lead acid. Also found out how to fit (2) 5Ks in this small ass car I totally shorted one of my cells too hahaha. That's a lot of lithium! Are they jy?

WalledSonic Posted September 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Funny story about the shorting. I was talking to a buddy about the lithium in the garage. I tapped my beer can on the bank while I was explaining something, shorted a cell for a moment throwing sparks, popped a hole in the bottom of my beer can. LOL! 2 banks are 80Ah JY and the other 1 is a K2 from that ebay seller we were watching. I'm thinking of selling the 73Ah one just for consistency, but havent put it up for sale yet. I'll probably end up with a third JY before the end of the year. Once I'm done rebuilding, I'm planning on adding caps too. I've been in touch with Samwha Capacitors. They make some caps that are larger than the Maxwell cells.

Wishuponasub Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 I shorted one of mine while test fitting also lol. Melted a bit of aluminum on my Jim's terminals.

nkrell11 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Holy lithium bank, I almost bought 3 of those 73's but I'm thinking 2 will suffice.

WalledSonic Posted September 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2017 Building a battery cage. Not finished yet but here's the basic frame I really hate having to spackle, paint, sand, etc, but it has to be done.
