It doesn't have the normal radiation hardness of other craft. But it also is only intended to go from Earth to the ISS. It isn't meant to go into the radiation belts or anything.

Memento posted:Out of curiousity, what level of radiation hardening do these systems have? ISS is well within the ionosphere, so fault tolerant processors (essential in any flying vehicle anyways) plus a large frame and a little extra radiation shielding should work just fine for the durations that they're in space, what you'd see in a satellite for example. A vehicle designed to travel to Mars, or perform extended Lunar operations would need a lot more radiation hardening to perform well, and might cross the threshold where COTS electronics aren't suitable for the job.

But it also is only intended to go from Earth to the ISS. It isn't meant to go into the radiation belts or anything. Our atmosphere attenuates a lot of radiation. I can almost guarantee that radiation was a design factor in the electronics. For example picking components on a rad parts list like this one https://radhome.gsfc.nasa.gov/radhome/RadDataBase/RadDataBase.html, providing shielding via mounting location/design, and via subsystem testing in a radiation test facility. Got a source on a crewed spacecraft having less “normal radiation” mitigation than “other craft”? What other manned craft would there be?

I believe (and stand to be corrected) Dragon uses three hardened ARM based modules as the NASA human rated specs call for redundant modules that if one gets affected by cosmic rays, get rebooted as that almost always will clear the radiation induced error. So the hardware seems to be fine. The software I dont know what to make of tho. While the gruntwork is C++, the screens are basically a webterminal / Javascript running on a Chromium system.

I remember when those things were snapped up by redbull as the original redbull girl cars, and they'd always come by our skate spots or at the local snowboard park and hand cans out like candy. I always thought they would be perfect for a hayabusa swap.

Was changing out some o-rings on my ARB air locker in my CJ7 and just was wrapping up the job, slid the jack under the axle and noticed that the axle wasn't moving much on the driver's side: this is/was a heavy duty M.O.R.E. brand shackle hanger.... less than 2 years old with about 5000mi on it

I discovered some time back that the bearing on the Ford tensioners, at least on my Crown Vic, is a common one and pretty easy to replace. Of course, that wasn’t the problem on mine. For some reason the tensioner was just a hair too close to the block and under certain conditions the pulley would *juuuuuuust* contact the timing cover, causing a chiropractor by noise. Solved by thin washers. Edit: this was the tensioner with the smooth pulley on the US passenger side. I also had some issue with the replacement, but I forget exactly what it was. It’s been years.

Yeah, its just a 6303 bearing, but that poo poo is loving trashed now so no reusing it. I also don't want dayco garbage in my car if I can avoid it.

Ah yes, judging by the seal the ever popular "HCH" brand of bearing Never heard of them. Guaranteed winner of cheapest possible price bid Background image right from the manufacturers website screams quality with their top notch packaging and state of the art warehouse.

I learned the (not hard?) way to just buy an oem tensioner when I did the timing belt on my legacy. The Gates tensioner failed and the belt skipped 3 teeth on one of the cam shafts. It started to backfire through the intake. Somehow this didn't grenade the motor or the head even though it was an interference motor. Drove it another 100000km before I sold it.

I had a dayco tensioner on one of my Mustangs, thought the alternator was going bad until I realized the tensioner spring had just shattered the aluminum casting and was holding almost no tension on the belt. I think I posted the picture in this thread. E: I did!
