      HM, WF, HL

      HM= $120 USD
      WF= b1performance@comcast.net Richard Hoffman
      HL= bloddy ages!! about two months! although he did say his PC had caught a virus and he lost my shipping details! Even though I put my shipping details on the USD bank draft I sent him!

      I'm thinking that with a neat bit of welding, the reverse lock out may be possible to get back... though I don't have access to welding gear or the ability to do it :-( know anyone Doug?

      My first impression is that it is way too easy to get revserse! I;ve ordered one of these from the US to warn its in reverse: http://www.designtech-intl.com:8080/...atid=12&step=4

        I can't weld - yet.

        2 months is a bit looong.

        Now your bus is going to sound like a bus

        Can you not stick in a stiff spring that pushes on the side of the shaft when try to push it left to reverse?

          Ha! never thought of that! a reverse bleeping bus

          The spring idea won't work, but it may be possible to weld back in place the lock out given some creative work. I'll mark that up as a to do sometime. Here: http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthr...&threadid=1076
