Realistic budget of a 2wd -4wd and goodies build

major overkill on the CDR hoses, I LOVE IT

only because it was free! , would not have gone this way if I had to pay out of pocket for this stuff. Good awesome though and easy to assemble

There is a difference between a starter relay and a GP relay, a GP relay contacts handle the high current, Here is what you should get for a manual GP. The left relay in pic is the one.

ah yes the PSD white rogers every one uses. I knwo the starter relays are only like 30/40 amp i believe. And dont the GP pull almost 80 on startup, abviously tapers down logarithmicly, but that 1-2 seconds of high amp pull..

 

[Greg5OH]

what i wondering as well is the ground of the relay...i dont have anythign on the bottom pin. it is basicaly just fastened to a abre steel plate which is welded to the fender. Bad ground? Do I need to ground it seperately from the bottom terminal to the battery?

I got 38 ohms across the terminals with the relay energised. In a ford service document for a psd it said if its over 8ohms replace it. Is 38 really that much?

 

[fsmyth]

yes

 

[LCAM-01XA]

Yup. Should have near zero with it energized. Also, regarding the ground, that's only used for the trigger circuit, which uses quite low current. If it had a lousy ground it wouldn't energize the relay at all. So if the relay energizes you have good enough ground.

Thanks guys, ill be getting the white rogers one

how much current do the glow plugs avtually pull??

found this one, 100a cont 400inrush
http://www.alliedelec.com/white-rodgers-124-902/70101959/#tab=specs

is this adequate enough? or pony up the extra 20 and get the monster one?

 

[79jasper]

Heard this one is equally good. 56131K can get it at western/fisher plow dealers.
Seems roughly 200 amp inrush and tapers down to about 100.

That looks like one I have used for years (although re-branded by White/Rogers).
A damn good relay. Wouldn't have any qualms at all about using it in this app.

That is some serious whistle.
