Mid travel overland-wheeler build with 35's and BS w/ SAS in the works

Very clean. But damn expensive. Not sure I can justify it.

 

Worth it to me. If you think about it though it'll end up being close to the same price as if you went any other way when you end up buying switches and all that.

 

8 switches at $15....each

 

It's according what type of switches and what brand you go with. Then you have to buy the bussman or blue sea. Then wire all that up (which I don't)

 

Tis true. Plus all the features

 

What all can it do? Strobe, Bluetooth and some other features right?

 

i HATE YOU. Now I need to get one. The bluetooth can make it act as a winch remote if you configure the switches for it.

 

Yep. Strobe, flash, momentary switches, master switches, dimmable, BT, memory, bunch of stuff.

 

I would just buy a wireless remote winch instead of wiring it to the switch pro.

 

X2.

 

Phone s always in my pocket. Plus it wold be like a back up remote. Just read the installation instructions where I saw the bold red print about not using dor winch controls

 

I was looking into being able to control my rock lights via Bluetooth. Switch Pro will not work because I am ground switched(done light ground also triggers rock lights to turn on). So did some searching and found thishttp://www.tinyosshop.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=362

Bought some lights....nothing major

 

Sorry to interrupt the circle jerk but wanted to drop some tech into your build thread...

You're going to need to do something other than a shackle flip if you want to stay off your bumpstops. Once the shackle is flipped you will actually have less weight carrying capacity before the leaves succumb to extra forces. Whether its static or dynamic. This is the only disadvantage to the shackle flip that i have found. You're gonna have to go with a "stiffer" pack unless you just want to lift the ass sky high to give yourself more room to bounce around.

A "Tension" style leaf setup carries weight much better than a "Compression" setup.

 

Yeah I figured out what I'm going to do. I didn't know that the shackle flip made your leafs capacity less though. Thanks for that info.

 

No problem man, going with an AAL?

 

Thinking so. With wheelers super bumps in the rear and the shackle flip.

 

You have engineering to back that up? I am still searching for definitive proof of that type of claim. And also that shackle angle can change spring rate.

 

Sure do, anyone with half a mechanical brain can figure it out on their own also. Since that's clearly not you, I suggest you Google leaf spring technology/design.

 

Thank for for that very helpful reply.
