q-tip Posted April 26, 2016 Report Share Posted April 26, 2016 Good lord, your rotisserie-ing a 510 not a tank! Over built is always better than under built. Did you rough/finish those m24 holes or did the machine have the torque to single stage it? 2 Quote Link to comment

Trophy24 Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 Very impressive Jeff. Can't wait to see the lift in action! Quote Link to comment
Colbino Posted April 27, 2016 Report Share Posted April 27, 2016 So...a Voltsun. No wait, a D A T S L A. Hmm. I'm torn. This is gonna have some serious torque. Ho's this rotisserie/lift going to be powered? Quote Link to comment
Josh K. Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Got some motors for the lift ;) 1 Quote Link to comment
tr8er Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Wow! That is epic. Good lord, your rotisserie-ing a 510 not a tank! Over built is always better than under built. He's going to rotisserie everything now. He'll just have hitch like mounts welded onto everything he owns. Alternator dead? Rotisserie. 3 Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted April 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Got some motors for the lift ;) Thanks Josh! I've got a line on some ball screws too! This project is really coming together! Wow! That is epic. He's going to rotisserie everything now. He'll just have hitch like mounts welded onto everything he owns. Alternator dead? Rotisserie. Pretty much. The idea was to give it a minimum safety factory of 10 so we could potentially lift two cars at once, or later if I for some reason decide to rotisserie a big ass car. Either way safe as can be. 1 Quote Link to comment
carterb Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Some people put rotaries in 510s Jeff and Sam put 510s in rotaries! :rofl: 3 Quote Link to comment
Duke Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 That lift is going to be awesome. Where is it going to attach to the car? Will you be able to lift a running/driving car or just bare chassis? Quote Link to comment

]2eDeYe Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 I remember when you had this one at Franks place and you were putting the floor in it. :D What's the plan for this round? 1 Quote Link to comment
fisch Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Tesla 510! This means the lift is done? Pics! 2 Quote Link to comment
Lockleaf Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 My first thought was "that's not on the rotisserie" :) Very excited to see progress. 1 Quote Link to comment

Icehouse Posted August 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Tesla 510! This means the lift is done? Pics! No lift isn't done, CNC mill broke a few months ago :( Still trying to get that sorted out. It's from the 90's which isn't to old but makes it a bitch to get parts for anything computer related on it. So for now I'm just going to get the rotisserie to "stage one of use" So I can do some rust repair and raise the rockers 2", shorten the doors. Hopefully by the time that is done I'll have the CNC fixed. Stay tuned 3 Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 raise the rockers 2", shorten the doors. What??? ... :lol: .... that sounds like something I've been considering, to fit my 4dr on a shorter wheelbase chassis. Electric should make it way easier to close the hood on a crazy low 510. 1 Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted August 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2016 closer! Been stripping it back down. Getting ready to fit it onto the rotisserie. It's going to be rad! What??? ... :lol: .... that sounds like something I've been considering, to fit my 4dr on a shorter wheelbase chassis. Electric should make it way easier to close the hood on a crazy low 510. Plus electric is way faster than gas and reliable. So excited! 7 Quote Link to comment

Ranman72 Posted September 2, 2016 Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 this looks quite different than a few years ago 1 Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted September 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2016 this looks quite different than a few years ago Yeah Washington winters do a number on cars that aren't driven. Shouldn't have bought the cheap clear coat, I can't believe how crapy it was! Never doing the cheap PGP clear from wesco ever again thats for sure. 3 Quote Link to comment
