GM starter solenoids suck for anything other than starting GM cars
Ford is the way to go when it comes to those. It takes more than one solenoid to reverse the polarity. Every winch on a truck I've ever owned uses Ford solenoids to revers the motor. It takes 3 solenoids total: 1 for each direction and another to isolate the grounds so it doesn't back feed.
And ya'll accuse ME of having too much time on my hands! Hellbilly,the link master,has scored again! Pretty cool that those servos have stall ratings. I can't remember how to wire it up to use those,but Ive seen it done on A/C units on cars. Something about the stall amperage trips some sort of switch so the servo will just stop automatically at the correct position. Pretty cool find bud! But where would you mount it? Alot of heat in that area. No offense,but I'm still a cable kind of guy.
Buuuut,maybe this could be going down the right road for something else???....pods maybe? Possibly some sort of servo operated wind guard that could be activated when you pop into high gear? The super hi-tech cure for the dreaded cross draft! Hmmm,how would that work....??? Shifter linkage wouldn't work right.it couldn't tell 5th gear from 2nd-4th. Horn button?Honk if it's windy! Man,ya'll ideas is partly responsible for my being up late all the time.
Or a license plate retracter for when you wanna split lanes?
