2013 Ford Transit Connect Roof Holes For Solar Wiring

I still have vibration for a while after a startup.

2013 ford transit connect roof holes for solar wiring.

I changed the passenger engine mount and that provided a relief from the vibration for a few weeks but it came back. In this video i walk you through the details of my diy solution for mounting solar panels on my extended long wheel base high roof ford transit van. I also replaced the transmission mount shortly after that but it doesn t make a big difference. So i got a 3 4 box aluminum rail from lowes set it in lapping sealant to be under the inside edges of the panels and used two 1 16 lines of your vhb.

Turns out if you drill a hole in the middle of the 4 mounting holes in the fitting for a m8 bolt and use the ford roof anchor holes the panels end up about 8 mm apart in the middle. The most difficult step for me was running the power feed wire from the rear of the vehicle to the battery in the front. You could choose yakima rails but that means drilling holes in the roof. The worst complaints are transmission engine problems.

Ford does not recommend that anything is added to the roof if it not attached with the provided m8 mounting holes and the weight is only applied to the area immediately around the hole. It s also built ford tough with a payload rating of up to 1 600 lbs 1 cargo space of up to 129 cu. The 2013 ford transit connect quite possibly the ideal commercial vehicle combines maneuverability and efficiency with cargo space and durability. The harness it self was as advertised and plug and play.

Inorder to use yakima s towers the ford transit needs some type of rack rail system. I have this issue as well on my 2013 transit connect.
