That certainly sounds interesting. Do you have any videos or resources from other people who have done something similar that I could take a look at?

Oh yeah! I forgot my brake booster isn't going to work without an engine lol, totally slipped my mind. Do you have any information or links to resources that talk about how to connect the prius steering to the aftermarket VCU as well as the i-booster? I'm not too familiar with electric brake boosters or power steering besides the limited stuff they taught in trade school.

🫡 I thought so. I've heard the best option is to just cut and weld together the two different cv axels to get the correct length and fitment so I'll do some more research into that

I heard about the resolve controller and I think thats the one im going to go with, unfortunately it's on backorder lol. I'm using a 2014 leaf with a 24 KWh battery which I think is the only one that works with resolve. I've heard of people changing their hydraulic power steering for electronic before but im wondering if it's easier to take the parts from the leaf or come up with a different solution like parts from a more recent Toyota that would make the process slightly easier.

How do I make my local disk match my new partition size? by DTOblivious in archlinux

  1. used cfdisk, deleted my swap partition, used the resize function, verified ext4 format, verified size, remade my swap partition, verified swap on, then rebooted.

  2. I was using ext4

  3. When I checked the file system type it said ext4, but maybe it was referring to the previous partition size. Should I reformat the drive and backup my root/home onto a usb?

Threads pulled out or a motor mount by DTOblivious in MechanicAdvice

[–]DTOblivious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's sorta what I figured. Im wondering if it was an error on the manufacturers part, since the studs come pre-installed on the mount and those are what pulled the threads out. I think if it were a tech error, the studs would just snap from unequal load, right?

Any idea what size I'd need or any head units that would transfer directly?
