Earth straps

Recommended Posts

I wonder if anyone has one of both of (parts no.s from the Caterham US site so I think they are right but could be misleading):

3369E - Battery Earth Lead Vauxhall/Rover/Zetec

2694 - Earth Cable Engine - Chassis

 

I have the first of these but it's very brittle and tired so could do with replacing. The latter I am missing and think really ought to be there.

 

Steve.

If no-one has genuine Caterham bits then you only need to know the lengths and the size of the bolts for the terminals each end. Any decent motor factor will have these off the shelf in a range of lengths.

 

The engine to chassis strap goes from an engine mount bolt on the engine to one of bolts holding the rubber mount to the chassis, so 300mm long (according to the build manual) with M10 terminal at the engine end and M8 at the chassis end.

 

The battery earth lead goes from the battery -ve to one of the starter motor bolts, say 400mm long and M6 at the battery end and M10 at the engine end.
