Iron Locust Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 (edited) Nice and shinny! Love polished aluminum!

Daddy Rim Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 Al + H2SO4 = Al2(SO4)3 + H2 It has a clear lacquer finish on it. I have another made that I'm annodizing red for my 280Z. :cool2: And yes I should clean the engine / battery, but that is a very old battery that is sitting in the truck, (since it's off the road while I mod it) which will be replaced by a new Interstate battery which is currently sitting on the driver seat. My '01 is cleaner I promise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALPATHY Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Good thing you took the pic for memories. Don't think it will look that way for long in spite of the lacquer finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
02silverpathy Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Dude if the battery is leaking, I am probably not worried about my bracket!! Your bracket is gorgeous and I am jealous...I don't have a bracket like that...or a pathfinder Lol, but I do have a deep cycle that would do nicely with such a hold down!!

Daddy Rim Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 (edited) Man... all the negativity! sheesh! hahah I just made two of them up yesterday because my other one was rusty and my 280 doesn't have one. I think it looks kind'ov neat, had two people message me to make one for them, so I can't be all that crazy. I know Lacquer won't keep it looking great forever, but it's in a truck so I'm not all that worried. I'm anodizing the one for my 280 since I can anodize at work.

trogdor Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 I thought that you bught those as well, for making them your self that is a great freakin job!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Rim Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 I thought that you bught those as well, for making them your self that is a great freakin job!! Merçi! Made some 1" strut spacers today, not sure what I'll make tomorrow... I was thinking about welding up a storage rack to mount into the hitch receiver. I'm sure you can buy them... but it's cheaper and more fun to make! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trogdor Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 can I have some of those spacers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Rim Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 can I have some of those spacers? You may! I'm going to try and program it into the CNC this week or early next week. If enough people are interested I'll do it cheaper :-) Though I doubt since a group buy was just done on the 3/4" spacers. Tyler has some 3/4" spacers already made if you need something urgent.

vengeful Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Very nice work! I rather like it...though, for now, I think I'll stick with the OEM, as it's in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarsiff Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 so if you do make some more of those hold downs what do you think you would charge?? i might be interested and i would rather support someone here than buy from some other company i have a red top that was in my maxima but since its smaller i had to flip over the stock one and its kind of rubbing into the top of the battery, i dont really like that to much.
