Thanks for the offer matey but I have a load in the locker, I thought they were for the extra wheel on the fronts but obviously they are not, and to think I have been driving it around like that, makes you wonder if that is a cause of the wobble in a previuos thread I posted :dunno:

That was my thoughts exactly, that there should be nuts on the outside as well, reading thru the manual last night it describes taking the front wheel off by undoing the nuts first, but there isn't any. Does anyone have outer nuts on their jimmy front wheels??

Who is Snotty Johnny

Another 'myth' of WW2 is that the USA had no idea that the Japanese would attack Pearl Harbour. That dastardly attack was a complete surprise - I think not! And what 'luck' that all the US Navy Carriers, that were essential to operations in the Pacific, just happened to be out at sea at the time!

 

It's an interesting thought, how things might have been if the US Navy had intercepted and sunk the Japanese Carriers on the way to Pearl Harbour. US public opinion might have accused their own side of starting an unnecessary war and blamed the military for attacking a poor defenseless Japanese Navy 'just out on manoeuvres' in international waters.

 

As it happened the 'surprise' attack was so shocking that US was able to join the war on the Allies side - for which GB must be truly thankfull, as without them we would never had won WW2

 

America entering the war was a forgone conclusion. The U.S., Britain, and the Netherlands had already agreed that all three nations would go to war against Japan if the Japanese entered Thailand — which they did a week before Pearl Harbor. So the U.S. was already committed to war (without the knowledge of Congress or the American people) a week before Pearl Harbor.

Roosevelt then told his cabinet that they had to get the Japanese to fire the first shot.

Pearl Harbour.

Done it Rick any bigger then you start losing a lot of quality. ;-)

See the rust you get on those "foreign" vehicles.....terrible.... :roll:

 

Cheek!!

That is camouflage :whistle:

Send it in here and get it published on the forum Chris :dunno:

Ok thank you, had me worried there for a mo'

Hi All

This may sound and look silly, but should I have wheel nuts on the front wheels of my jimmy :oops:

Well I for one am not changing my handle, it is what I was christened with. :coffee2:

On this point if someone does post with a weird name just PM them and ask fro the real one and if they want to give it out then they will, as Ian2B says lots of forums have run for years without peoples names on there so why change just because we are getting a bit of flack from some quarters, do you really think that this will stop because I post under Bert or Sid, dont think so.

Whatever we post on here will be/can be criticised because the outsiders want to, not because we have "handles"

Carry on.

Mark, have you thought of permanently wiring a charger into circuit and then just plugging the power lead in when you want it?

 

What just a normal battery charger, that is what I would like to do, or is there another type of charger around?

ABN when I have done the inside and finished I will post some pics up here

Thank you Neil that is great :-D

Looks good Lee, I assume you can wire the top plug to whatever you want? i.e. a battery charger etc.

Sympathy vote - Nah. :coffee:

 

 

You are supposed to be at work Mark, so stop playing snooker or whatever and wash the trucks :coffee2:

The battery is located on the right hand side and I am intending to install in the back close to that point, I will use 2.5 cable which should be ample for a charger and a "plug/socket" within, also this plug/socket will supply low voltage lighting in the event of no genny supply, but primarily it will be for using it to charge the battery.

Why not ?? the plug/sockets should be ablr to take the supply, yes!!

Can you still not get permission to look though

OK I have this

http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b114/MEasterby-Wood/CIMG0462.jpg[/img]

and I have a power supply socket at the back for all my needs from a genny or house, this supplies all my needs as in lights etc. to charge my battery I have to remove a cover and then run a lead (may be raining) to charge it, if I install the plug and socket as above I can then charge from inside the back end, the power cable to the truck is waterproof when on site/shows, whilst on this supply or at home I can plug in the charger and sort the battery out.

Does THIS make sense. :-D

Cheers Tony, my thought is to put them in the back of the truck (living quarters) and charge the battery from there, and then if I want an extra light I can plug into that, does that make sense.

You GOT to post a picture! The thought is mind bending. :schocked:

 

Its been advertised on TV, have you not seen them :schocked:

I got nothing

Richard I have not fitted or got them yet, the wire would be my choice probably 2.5 which should be enough for a cgarger, would the sockets be man enough though.

Would these be OK for charging the battery through :dunno: i.e. amps etc.
