    Default Trying to hide the shifters

    I have a 2009 Dodge Challenger that is an SRT8 with the 6.1L Hemi that we installed a SMS super charger on. I have a Escort QI45 with the shifter pack. The customer wants me to build a motorized hideaway system for it. So I am looking for any ideas on what to use and how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

    Tell your customer yes I can do a system to fit your wants and please you but the performance of your laser jammer will be severly hindered by installing your jammers this way

    The guy spent $500 on an 8500 x50 and got the ZR4s I think in the customers mind looks trump performance, and if that's the case then hopefully he wont' preform well enough to pull a stegall and the stealth community will remain as such.

    That A-bond system looks like it'll meet the request of the customer. The only other approach I've seen the same way have all been home brew versions of the same concept.

    This sounds like a bad idea. Hindering the performance of a sub-par jammer is no bueno.

    It looks neat, but it has 2 problems.

    1) It's mounted WAAAAY too low to be useful
    2) The mounts wiggle, and change the alignment on something that has to be very precise.


    I wanted to build something similar, but I cannot figure out how to make actuators, and a mechanism that won't change the alignment as it moves up and down.

    Another problem with these sorts of mounts is that, when you mount them back far enough that they can be pulled up behind the bumper, the jammer heads end up being recessed so far that their effectiveness is reduced, especially for overpass shots.

    you will have to use a screw drive system, that way they will stay constant.
