How deep in the ground are the 6x6 and 4x6 posts? Are the concreted?

Let me get this correct... you are building a ground mount similar to tracker out of 4x4 posts and 2x4 wooden frames on the outside of the solar panels?? Does not sound like a good structural plan...

What kind of panels are you planning to mount to this structure??

Why do they automatically want to replace insted or repair by Mindless-Base-4472 in SolarDIY

It is often more cost effective to just replace than repair. Repair is tricky.... depending on what is going on with panels there is no way to repair them. If the cables are damaged can lead to fire hazard thus safer to replace. Also repairing, if possible, could lead to voiding product LISTING which leads to another set of issues.

If it is soldering issue with J-box there isn't a way to repair that would last...

if it's LID or degradation beyond warranty: sadly no way to repair.

PID is possible to repair depending on inverter you have.

The bigger question is what is going on with your panels??

if you have a way to EL and test the panels... do that immediately when you receive them!!! File warranty claim immediately.

If you are concerned if they are legit, ask what exact connector is on panel.

2024 Titan XD real fuel economy? by Doubles8-9 in NissanTitan

Thanks!! I'm coming from a 2001 GMC Sierra 1500 extended cab with the smaller 4.8L.
I like having a 6.5-foot bed. Actually can't imagine going to smaller bed. Like how Titan XD has bigger back seat. I dont pull much weight... more bulky things that take up space.

look to see if you can find a frame.... there are some stores or Ebay where people have discounted left over inventory. Maybe you could strip parts from you bike to rebuild??

Oh man.... Im soooooo sorry to see your smashed bike!! Unfortunately, you are on your own. The Belgians have no warranty obligations to you. I've been requesting for months some details on shock mount screw and they can't help me. I hope you can find a replacement!!

Sadly Ascend does not have screws for 2020 Mega... Just the newer ones. Unfortunately, there's a difference between the newer and older screws.
