Cabin door motor mechanism
 

Does anybody know what mechanism Cigarette uses to motorize their cabin doors? I was thinking about doing an upgrade project to motorize my Bullet door. Any suggestions?

You need a linear actuator. how big is the door? Got a pic?

It's a worm gear and has several coutom brackets. I had to change all the screws to thru bolts and add a bracket to mine because it was always coming loose and falling off :mad:

The new ones are hydraulic with pressure supplied by a mercury trim pump mounted underneath the helm.

That would be a cool upgrade. Keep us posted on the progress. Take pictures when you do it. You might start a trend.

do they have a manual over ride?

Does anybody have any pictures of how it is rigged or what the mechanism looks like behind the passenger's console? That would be extremely helpful.

Is there a simple fix to a terribly constipated cabin door to speed it up and smooth out its operation?

Damn thing sounds like it grinding rocks every time it moves.

More crap to shake loose and break. I wouldn't bother.

That's a lot of help. If we dumped all the crap that can shake loose and break we would be left with an oar.
