U4x4T Response to Pinz 12 Volt Upgrade
I think it would be a good time for me to respond to this thread. A good client of mine just clued me in on the discussion going on.
My name is Robert Crow and I am the owner of Ultimate 4x4's of Texas.
As you all read, I stated that I was not able to ship this "kit" out as I had originally intended. It just didn't work out. Prototypes have that problem.
I don't doubt anyone's capability in performing this upgrade, I just rather not deal with the potential warranty when something goes wrong on a custom modification, especially out of state.
Bottom line, I have been very busy lately and not had a chance to update the web site. An individual contacted me regarding this product, and I responded.
If this person would like to design one himself, go right ahead. It isn't that complicated. Take a Toyota Tercel 55 Amp alternator, make a bracket to hold it against the engine, install a longer belt, and away you go. There are a few more things involved which I have painfully learned that I will gladly share with you if you contact me.
My suggestion is this- go with a simple 50AMP 24-12VDC Converter/Charger that is available for direct purchase and hook up with out this mess. Alternator should handle it fine. Contact me if you want pictures and details.
Good luck, and call me anytime if you have any questions. My number is listed below...it is my cell phone, and I usually answer it 24 hours a day.
