It's generally recommended to isolate dissimilar metals to prevent galvanic corrosion. Lead counterweights should be isolated from aluminum components to avoid potential issues. Using appropriate barriers or insulating materials between the lead and aluminum can help mitigate this corrosion risk. I find something new around every corner which sends me down an educational rabbit hole.
Keep up the good work mate, I’m hooked on your journey building this puppy 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Joblist is getting longer, great seeing someone dedicated to getting the job done correctly, no matter the time cost
No compromise. Gotta go backwards to go forwards sometimes.
A question….Is there any Vans requirement to isolate the lead counterweight from the aluminium frame, to avoid galvanic corrosion?
