Given what you're running, I really dont think you need dual batteries. You should be fine with one good battery. By good, I don't mean Optima. More like Odyssey Batteries PC2150 aka Sears DieHard Platinum Marine PM-1. Those are legit batteries than are more than strong enough to run...

Thanks, Bob. That was the educated answer that I was looking for. The 321 would be a fine emergency radio. The 14.300 net is USB and would be one of the first places I'd go if I needed emergency assistance over amateur radio. I'm in the military and well familiar with the sometimes awkward...

I think that you're misunderstanding the function of the solar panel. It's not going to help your situation. Since you're running your lights at night, you need a solution that will leave you with enough battery to start your vehicle the next day. That's a function of battery capacity, not...

Not very usable as in how? Poor xmit/recv performance?

Anybody ever used a Clansman radio? I don't want to give away too much yet but the VRC-321 looks like it would be a nice match for my new truck. They're readily available in the UK and the price is reasonable for a quality radio...if they are indeed quality... I love the way that these radios...

The truck is sold. Congratulations on your new Defender, Lucas!

No, you are out a set of rotors because you didn't check your work. You claim to be an Audi tech? After your libelous post, who knows? Victim! The victim!!! You bought a ****ty rebuilt aftermarket part and tried to mate it with another aftermarket part from a different manufacturer...

I'm not the one out chasing rock-bottom prices for a critical safety component now, am I? If I'm buying calipers, it's new-in-box Genuine for me, and you can damned sure bet that I'm checking the fitment of my installation before I get the truck out on the road. And if I do **** up an...

Yes, but a simple inspection of the rotor/caliper mating would have revealed this: You went the cheapskate route on some rebuilt calipers and then didn't check the fit on your aftermarket rotors. Then you bashed the vendor when totally avoidable damage happened. The fault lies exclusively...

You put new calipers on and never checked the clearance? Did you even bother to spin the rotors after you put it together?

I'm suspending the sale for a few days. I've decided to take the truck back to near-stock and keep most of my accessories for my next truck. I'll update the thread as soon as I get everything pulled and the original parts put back on and a new price posted.

I brought it with me when I moved here in 2010.

Details from the auction: There are a few things that make this particular truck stand out amongst the rest: This truck has spent nearly it's entire life in my family. I'm not a used car salesman flipping an unknown truck. My uncle bought it from the original owner in 1995 with less than...

Definitely not getting out of Defenders. The plan is to import an ex-MOD 110, move it onto a galvanized frame and bulkhead and build up a really nice diesel truck. Like the 90, I want something rock-solid reliable and minimalistic. The ultimate setup for two-week lightweight desert trips is...

PCS to Lewis, eh? We PCS up there in June.

It took about nine months, I think. It's not an item that's normally sold in the US. The instructions are Japanese-only. I think that SP USA had to place the order through SP Japan and probably wait for the next shipping container or whatever.

Special order from EE. It came by sailboat and mule. So worth the wait. I love the super-deep lip on the lid.
