What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[ECrider]

Why has it taken me 18 months to notice that I can scroll through the various Waze/Google Maps fields with the shiny wheel?

Or am I just getting old?

I didn't know that either.

This happened to me today
Driving along motorway and fuel level is showing 'greater than 430miles' i had already do about 80 since filling. The 'greater than' symbol disappeared and I got a few readings with 452miles as remaining fuel and over 30mpg.
I have never had it where the fuel level has been higher than the >range.

I always forget that that thing is even there or useful. Same with hitting the microphone button to use Siri. Although she is very hard of hearing.

No problem sharing the file - just making some final adjustments.
Larger radius next to magnet - looks more like the GME product

I tried printing this one with PLA. It came out shiny, but not glossy enough to match the piano finish so will go back to the PLA-CF which gives a nice matt finish.

Magnet came with the UHF kit I brought from GME | XRS-370C4P
They sell the magnetic mount separately

But you could probably buy something local/amazon and modify the print to suit.

Not sure where to post the file or what format.
The original design is in Autodesk Fusion

If you export it as a step (.stp) file then I can import it into solid works.

You can attach a file to a post or email it to me.

Today Bomber Lane, Wales, Uk. Thanks to all, who gave me the recommendation

Had a productive day, replaced the kinda useless spot lights with these KC (Flex ERA 4-2) lights.
Mounting bracket from Grenadier Works and the Shadowmarq wiring harness.

Definitely take the time to remove the middle bumper piece to install, made it much easier.
The lights will fit through the OEM bezels, just takes a bit of elbow grease.

Had a little issue with the harness, one DT ground connector had come undone, simple fix to re-term. Reached out to Shadowmarq and let them know, it's a really good product regardless and well put together.

Lights are connected directly to the headlights, so when they're on the pod lights are on low power and have an amber glow that's perfect.
And the output on full power is great!

Wish I got that kind of mileage on mine!!

In NJ for work for the next 2 days. Stopped in Montvale wanting to check out the new HQ. Couldn’t find the offices and wandered around a bit. Timing ended up being good and caught up with an Ineos employee at the showroom space. He let me see the Arcane Works Grenny and had a nice chat.

Actually.

An Auto desk fusion file would work great for me

Luckily we get the diesel, for now.
Normally I doing easily over 400 miles on a tank, filling up before the annoying refill bong goes off
Love a diesel

 

[Tazzieman]

Finally got around to hard mounting one of my 2 extinguishers.
Piece of 2mm angle alloy lying around. Grinder activated.
About 10% of a can of Raptor paint, when only the toughest and most tactical will do.
I'd lost (or as a senior says ,: ''misplaced'' ) the original clamp.
Add couple ''o rubber straps= Saul Goodman.
About 3 bucks drained from the wallet.
Oh and I put some longer bolts in. The original seat bolts are quite short.

Love a diesel - just not so keen on all the new shite that goes with it. My thing seems to regen a lot, the energy it must consume because the heat and noise is high. I swear I can see the street lights flicker.

400 miles - that's decent compared to mine on a tank. I recon I'm getting 20-22mpg imperial at the mo. Obviously we might be comparing apples with oranges.

We are both Uk, so working in the correct units of measurements.
I get low mpg if I use for short or stop start driving. Mostly I use on the motorway at about 55-65 mph

A bit of a cross over with another post. Fitted a Toughdog steering damper. Took about 15 minutes.


Steering very much improved!

How many miles have you done in your vehicle, I'm on about 26,000 miles and the steering doesn't bother me but the wife doesn't like it so rarely drives it and therefore never gets used to it.
What different does it make?

About 17,000 miles.

The steering never bothered me either, I got swayed by the enthusiastic members on here to try it. I was a somewhat sceptical that it would make a difference.

Differences -
The steering is lighter, more to the point it is quicker making the vehicle seem more agile
The wheel returns to centre
The old damper would go lock to lock if you applied extra pressure, now it goes freely from one the other

(This damper has 9 settings, even the highest is not as stiff as factory, but it can be tightened up for off road in a few seconds).
I wouldn't say the difference is night and day, but it is very noticeably better.

Hi landman,

It is interesting you don't find setting 9 as stiff as factory, I find setting 6 close to factory setting on mine, and setting 9 stiffer than factory.
When I installed my Tough Dog damper I put the adjuster facing back for protection, the adjuster is still easy to get to.
I ordered one before they started manufacturing and got one of the first delivered, so possibly they may have changed the settings?.

While the wing fits the vehicle profile nicely, an wondering if it has any effect in reducing the accumulation of dust/mud/road grime on the rear windows and doors or how it might be adapted to achieve this.
