    Ultimate (?) DIY dual battery controller!

    This is an awesome setup. A full step-by-step how to write up would be awesome. :punk03: I REALLY need to figure out a way to have back up power for back country solo expeditions. Bart

    Four Days in Death Valley

    What was the weather like at the bottom? I was there in September 2 years ago and it was like 115-125F down there. Still Death Valley is AWESOME. I want to go back again soon. Cool pics. Bart

    Battery Backup/Emergency Jump starter

    OK, so I am sure there are already a million threads on this, so if someone knows of a good one that answers my question, just point me in the right direction please. This summer, I will likely be going on some remote trips with a single vehicle. I am looking for a solution in the event my...

    Five best overland vehicles in North America?

    Even though Isuzu dropped out of the passenger vehicle market entirely and there is no aftermarket, I still feel that a well maintained, properly outfitted Isuzu Trooper is going to be a fantastic expedition vehicle, especially 1st and 2nd gen models. They are extremely roomy, can fit a nice...

    1986 Diesel Trooper Thoughts and ideas?

    Hey Richie! Where you been? I didn't do a diesel swap, but I swapped the GM 2.8 to a 3.4. I have a lot of plans for my VX, things are going good but slower than I want of course. Money is always a factor I guess. I'm hoping to have the truck done by spring just in time for the camping...

    1988 Isuzu Trooper Mods

    Just to be on the safe side I would install some independent4x HD tie rods. I just put some on my 91 Trooper and they are nice. Still a work in progress. I need to build a light bar for the roof rack and also mod the front bumper to accept a Warn M8000. Hopefully I will have it done by...

    1986 Diesel Trooper Thoughts and ideas?

    A 4.3 would be awesome, but the 3.4 is a much more straightforward swap. There's loads of info out there on the 2.8 > 3.4 conversion. I just finished my swap last month and I'm lovin' it. :victory: Bart

    First: Post/Expedition - Glad I'm not alone

    California is awesome... ...but a detour through the center of Nevada is even better! Have fun in Mehico. :costumed-smiley-007 Bart

    1986 Diesel Trooper Thoughts and ideas?

    Go sign up on PlanetIsuzoo.com and ask the same question. You will likely get a fast response. I don't know much about the diesels myself but several of the lads over there do. I do however know that 1st gen diesel Troops are quite desirable to some. $500? You can't go wrong. :victory: Bart

    Yeah, I'm on the Planet...thanks for the info. Right now I am just going to keep my eyes peeled for some 4.77s. I think I would be good with that setup and a locker in the rear. :smiley_drive: Bart

    Dumb Question

    Yeah, hence the " "s. I will, probably under the Isuzu section. I have website with mucho pics on it and several threads going over on PlanetIsuzoo.com. Anyway, here's a couple links for you: Main page: http://www.nofuture.com/myvx/myvx.htm Trooper page...

    Dumb Question

    Thanks guys. Yeah, I just finished the 3.4 swap in my Trooper. Much more power now! :victory: Just working on tweaking a few things. It's kind of an avalanche of sorts when you start working on these older trucks. And yes, the Trooper is very narrow compared to most SUVs around today. I...

    Dumb Question

    Cool, I may end up building some myself as well. I'm not 100% sure what I am going to do with the front end yet. I need to mod my bumper a little so I can stuff a Warn M8000 on there. I'm not sure if I will be fabbing up a brush guard as well. If I do they I will likely make up a set of...
