The truck has been stripped of all IC parts, the Hitachi motor and trans are at the shop while we fabricate the motor/clutch/trans adaptor. The Hitachi motor is from a Datsun / Nissan forklift, which i advanced the timing 12.5 degrees for 144 volts. The battery racks are coming along well, and should be installed in the next week or so, just in time for the motor/trans. As for the ElectroCraft controller, charger, and crosscharger, thats the eazy part for me, having converted many many forklifts over the years............... May 9/09..... The latest changes, The power steering pump is installed and working, using a 12 volt hyd. pump motor, with a custom adapter to bolt the P.S. pump to the motor. I also decided to go clutchless to simplify the drive motor / transmission adaptor. It is also coming along well and should be ready in a week or two, when ElectroCraft is supposed to have the controller ready...... Latest setback, all 4 leaf spring mounts have to be replaced, this is part of the frame, where the shackles mount to the frame. I need to replace all 4 when the leaf springs get installed, to carry all the extra weight......... Aug 4/09.......... Rear leaf springs and battery boxes are installed. I had to make a custom ventalated battery box for the back seat to fit the remaining batteries that couldn't be fitted under the tilt bed. All the components are here, the motor\trans adapter plate, the ElectroCraft 800 Amp controller, ElectroCraft Crosscharger 12 volt to 144 volt 15 amp, And ElectroCraft Battery charger 120 AC input 144 volt output 6 hour charge. The Hitachi motor should be done this week and be ready to install the motor\transmission in the next week or so..... Latest change, i went back to using the clutch and original flywheel. The main reason was that it was eazier to adapt a magnetic pickup on the ring gear for the tachometer, which has a shift light built in. I'll use shift light output for the RPM limiter, just a simple relay at the speed pot input.................Aug 26/09.... The motor and clutch are installed, the controller, potentiometer box, charger, and cross charger are also mounted. I'm in the prossess of making up switches for the transmision shifter and clutch pedal, so the motor can't be opporated without a load. Next step, installing the batteries into the trays. I left them out to make it eazier to push the truck in and out of the garage.... Latest problem... I'm not happy with the 12 volt motor that i have driving the PS pump. It's too loud and winey. I experimented with a power resister on the motor to slow it down. Although it was alittle quiter, i lost pump preasure the more i slowed it down. I'm considering other motors, or going to direct drive on the main drive motor { thus i will loose PS when the truck and main motor are stopped }. 1461 75 50 2009-03-24 12 Volt Aux P.S.

Car needed some rust repair before work started on the conversion. Donor had 320000 ks on it (195520 miles) when I bought it. Still ran well but oil and coolant were mixing. Radio busted. $750 Price was good since it has new tires and was in good overall shape. Design goal was for a real world range of 100 miles per charge and top speed above 60 MPH (hoping for 70). Another goal was to not cripple the car for the conversion. That means trunk and seating capacity stays the same. So far, this seems to be on track to work out as planned. 73 85 2008-11-18 none Stock all seasons 2009-11-17 2009-11-18T05:13:13Z 291 1996 Removed tbd 2009-06-07 One string 12 volt 12 each for 144 volt with T1275 batteries Trojan 144 Flooded Lead Acid electric vacuum pump http://electricranger.blogspot.com/ 8 estimated Quick charge x2 72 v 20A Curtis 1231C 8550 2009-06-08T01:41:43Z Curtis 1400 1000 3700 Estimated 2010-06-08 161 878 Ford 72 Ranger Warp9 Watt Gas Fair weather project due to no heat in garage. range and speeds are estimates Got a good quote on T1275 trojan battery, may go with those. Frame is finally painted and wiring being sorted out. 7-8-09 Welded up the frame for the electronics enclosure and vacuum reservoir. Built and tested tachometer circuit and sensor mount, fabricated enclosure to protect the sensor and pulse wheel. 7-16-09 Work on the control box is progressing, parts are mounted and much of the wiring is installed, timer circuits for precharge and overspeed were checked for proper operation. A new vacuum pump was ordered, and the other was removed from the enclosure. 7-18-09 New pump arrived, it is very nice and will replace the other 2 pumps. I found a nice set of battery terminal crimpers that I picked up at a very good price. I used them to start on the large wiring in the control cabinet. Ran all the vacuum lines for the brakes and heater controls to the vacuum reservoir. 7-25-09 The control box is about complete, made brackets for the chargers, made some cables. Got the air shocks lines done and ready for the truck bed to go back on. 11-1-09 Too many projects and work have slowed progress, but on the plus side, I now have heat in the garage so I will be able to work year round. I have been working on lower plastic water/debris shield under the motor before I mount the control box. 11-13-09 The shield under the motor has been trimmed and installed, panel to cover radiator opening has been made and installed. Hoisted the control box into the engine bay and hooked up throttle cable and some wiring. 1240 68 35 20 2008-04-08 Manual conversion stock 70 2009-11-14 2009-11-14T13:36:30Z 18 1993 None, even in AZ!

The car is VERY simple in design, so the suspension, brake and driveline mods are quite doable without a PHD (or even a GED). I'm counting on the forum to get me through that which I understand the least--electricity. 11-14--The front suspension is removed from the car, as it's 53 years old and needs to be freshened up a bit. I have a set of Midget spindles with disc brakes to replace the feeble front drums. They'll back on after I get the A-arms sandblasted and painted. The steering assembly is a mess and the passsenger side idler has pulled it's mount away from the unibody. No wonder it looks like a duck! The steering will be yanked in favor of a more modern rack and pinion setup. I've pulled the heater assembly, exhaust system, and fuel tank. There will be a brief interlude before I can pull the engine and tranny. The car was titled using the ICE serial number for the VIN. I have to get someone from the state to inspect the car and retitle it with the chassis number before I can pull the engine. Oh, well. I've got a couple road trips betwen now and New Year's, so I guess we'll focus on little resto projects for now. 182 6 45 20 2009-10-15 None 155-80X13 55 2009-11-14 2009-11-15T00:34:08Z 8750 1957
