Found a battery last nite and had a play with the new linkage position. It was difficult to test it as you just can't hold onto the motor as its too powerfull, the mount needs to be fixed.
So I had a long hard think about the movement of the linkage/clearance on the servo etc and welded in the bracket.
Hooked up the battery and EPIC fail!
1 - The bracket was just flexing so it needed more strengthening to hold it steady.
2 - As a result of the flexing the bracket snapped lol
3 - The linkage didn'tclear the servo when going round.
I was pi$$ed off at this point so put it down and walked away. I'll have a rethink and come back to it.
I then, determined, went back to the gearstick plate. I played around with the welder and setting and got it right so I could get a decent weld without blowing through. It might look a bit rough but I was getting better as I moved round and even worked out how to weld up the old blow-thru holes. So all in all pleased with that and I'm sure with more & more practice my welding will only improve :D

Good going, as you've probably seen in my thread I've done some shocking welding on mine, but also some fairly decent bits, but its all about practice, so good on you for having ago aswell mate :thumb:

Cheers bud.
Michael is coming over on the tuesday after xmas for some rear arch action! I can't wait :D :D
-
just mount it in the same place as mine simps. you only have to weld one washer to the wiper mech and job done

So you're running just the single wiper then? hwo does it effect the wiper angle using the corsa vertical spindle?
-
ye just the single wiper but its plenty good enough. the angle of the spindle makes no difference aswell
-
cheers bud. looks like another visit to the scrappy for me! lol
-
the best bit of course is that it plugs straight in aswell :)
