Re: Bridge device failure fix
Like most, are team cam to GTR with 2 window motors on a arm to lower the bridge, Did nothing. We then took a Cim with a tough box and attached that to the arm, again did nothing.

We are now using a 1 1/2" bore cylinder attached to a arm as a 3rd class lever. We get about 50lbs on the end of are arm. It also has the ability to raise the bridge and lock it in a balanced position. It's working great so far in the Waterloo regional.
