Jared-
I do have some experience with this, specifically in the problem realm, and have a long back and forth with Doug from AB about the whole thing that would be easist to push via email (hit me at ray.gerber@gmail.com). For the sake of everyone else reading, I have to ask what are your...
Wrapping up the backup camera, installing VHF including diamond motorized antenna
With the rear swing away blocking much of the field of view of the lic plate mounted camera, I scoured Amazon for a replacement that I could mount up in the hatch. Ultimately I landed on this one: Bulkhead mount...
KOS Controller install & backup camera fitting
I did, will use your reply as the springboard for that odyssey.
To form the basis of the rest of the accessories I knew I needed to find the final location for the controller and get that settled. I'd decided that the only good place was...
Kenwood KOS V1000, Yaesu F7900R install; Part 1
My long awaited revamp of the in car electronics, version 4.0 (at least) got underway shortly after the New Year when the wife bounced back to the PRC and the weather took a turn for the warm, briefly.
The overall intent was to augment the basic...
NOCO Genius dual battery 2 bank waterproof on board battery charger
One of the other things I've managed to accomplish in the past few weeks is the installation of a NOCO genius charger. The specific model has 2 banks which allows for simultaneous charging of both the starting and auxillary...
Just for you, I did it on the way in this am.
Don't reccomend it! At least not if you put the window all the way down. Mine shot out the side (this was at 60mph mind you)...
Updating after a lag; sunshades
Been a bit since I updated this thread. On the verge of being able to wrap up some major radio/communications changes but wanted to start the series with a few other minor changes. Truck continues to be superb, in Dec it proved its worth as a very comfortable...
Just a couple of shots from a few weeks back when it snowed. Needed some more pellets for the stove, decided that Coyote was the optimal vehicle for the conditions (who am I kidding, a miata would have been fine-I just wanted to drive her)
Oh, and a city light is out in one of my headlights...
I'd be interested in hearing about those that haven't gotten 2" out of the OME springs. I'm sure in time, like all springs, they will sag-but thus far I'm pretty sure my truck is more/less at offroad height as she sits. To the point where in doing the comparison with the EAS truck we didn't...
So I'm admittedly intrigued by the idea of a custom coil over for the sake of performance-but have to ask to what end, and of course there will be the inevitable at what cost?
In the end you are going to run into some limitations of the vehicle design as others have noted (CV angles, the nature...
In short, no-we didn't deal with the delta in extended/super extended mode. Your point is well taken, in some circumstances that will make the difference between being stuck and not.
That said, the overarching reality is that any modification is a compromise. Of course so is wheeling a 5.5k...
I know this was sorta for MontyMog but I'll dump in my comments:
-Believe they are all originally Dunlop kits, at least in terms of the black box which is the true secret sauce. Then other folks re-brand or what have you (UK providers, AB, L8, etc).
-The dongle can either be flashed or...
They are almost certainly the same kit, just rebranded. L8 does support the community a great deal though (i.e. active participation at events). Their website currently only shows the standard height kit at more/less the same price as AB ($870); not obvious +2 kit-but they work best via call...
Where are we as a community when someone posits "nowhere near the quality..." of anything as it relates to a P38 :)
Sorry, I just found that far too amusing. Cross link valve links-far less so.
Despite the fact that Land Rovers come from a country that is a wet island they tend to not have good watertight integrity. The LR3 is no different in that regard. The wet floorboard on the pass side is fairly common-almost ubiquitious with ownership-between the sunroof drains, the lower...
Don't want to speak for who I consider the pioneer of the conversion, but you may want to scroll down the page and take a look at this since he posted there:
