THE PORTAL HUB - Pinzgauers, Haflingers, Volvo 303s and more!

I am curious about what is actually needed in terms of parts that could be printed in plastic or TPU (Oil/Gas resistant rubber).
Someone mentioned the green lenses for the 4x4/DifLock panel, the horn button... anyone with ideas suggestions?

well, if ypou want to be really helpful, try to print the gear for the wiper motor that can't be bought as spare part ....

I would love to get into that gear! Having said that, what material is the original, how many are needed, if it is just for one... Really worth the effort?
I am not looking to make any $$ out of this, lets make it clear, I would just expect help in convering cost. But since I will donate my time, I would be more inclined to take on projects that benefit the largest number of Pinzies.

Albert, do you still need the gear? Give me details.

Jerome

I have bought a new wiper motor generation 2 when the gear failed, and I guess there are many more in the same situation.



There are a few spare parts available for generation 1 wiper motors but no gears.
If I can find an intact gear and measure it, what format do you need the file to be ?

it would be great to have the gear... but if it is a regular spur gear, a photocopy in any flie format would work.
Or measurements. I have not played with the gear extension of my CAD software yet.
Do you have the broken gear?

Jerome

I have bought a defective gen 1 wiper motor with working gears as part donor.
Will disassemble it and measure and take pics.

Jerome,

You can certainly count me in for 2, and I'm sure that I vouch for and additional 2 for another local Pinz owner.

At one time, Dennis at Linden Engineering had a run of those wiper gears made from Delrin. Might be worth checking to see if he still has any.

Jerome

I just realized the donor wiper motor is at the weekend house.
Won't be there before Chrismas, but I'll remember the topic.

Don't forget!

give ne two weeks ....
