11 Set stuff

[cletrac (RIP)]

I think the 11 set was the only one they used in the 8 cwt trucks. They were pretty well obsolete by the end of 1941.
That's why I posted them on this thread.

I did see some Canadian 11 set power units on ebay a few years back , in Canada . They were painted a green colour on the front , like the set itself . I saved the pics of the units for sale , but its not much use to you right now

I have a Canadian low output power unit I got off ebay several years ago for around $50. That's the only one I've seen.

Isn't Kevin Powels 11 set a Canadian set? I have trouble searching this forum!
He has posted pictures of it and I'm sure it has a green front?

On the subject of vehicle bonding to eliminate Wireless interference. I fitted the kit as supplied to my Willys Jeep. There was about 20 or so of those flat braided strips in various shapes and lengths for just about every thing metal. Even the choke cable and oil gauge pipe are earthed. Ron

This is the stuff that was on ebay in Canada a few years ago

I have three 8cwt cabs and they all have some of the grounding straps. There should be enough to end up with a complete set for the one I'm restoring. The spare chassis has the long ones that run to the back of the frame.

I was checking out the charging switchboard and I assume I'll have to fabricate one. I got quite a bit of info out of the manual. I'll have to come up with some appropriate gauges and switches. Does anybody have any better pictures or more information? or some gauges or switches?
