    A good Android based tablet for GPS navigation

    Lenovo TAB A2 - rock solid, paired with a Ram X-mount. (Here - off line, Google Maps, BCN). If I were to buy now I'd sure take a look at that Freedom Pop 8gb LG G pad. Pair that with a Google fi data only sim @ $10 dollars / 1 gig ... might be interesting...

    Still New To Me Gen 3 Won't Start

    Sounds like a similar issue that came and went with my '05 last year. Symptoms of being flooded. I pulled the fuel pump fuse (in the engine compartment fuse box) and cranked the engine until it started. Obviously engine only ran for a brief few moments. Replaced the fuse and started normally...

    what doi you use for Gen 2.5 Tranny OIL

    Full fluid exchange is roughly 10 quarts. Depends on which Gen you have thou, some are a little more, some a little less. ie: about a quart. Might want to buy a dozen, then with any extra, change the Power Steering as well.

    Wheel spacers on a Gen III or "factory rims" to get better offset?

    Can't disagree with your statement about narrow vs. wide when air down and off road. Not sure of your planned driving of the vehicle, but in actual miles our '05 is on the street and highway 95% or more of the time. We had Falkin Wild Peak A/T on it for 45k miles (265/75R17) and were a much...

    Wheel spacers on a Gen III or "factory rims" to get better offset?

    Swapping out my 235/85R16 on 2001 wheels for 285/75R16 on 20th anniversary wheels (plus an ARB/OME lift). The 235 tires are too squirly since new day 1 - and they now have 35k miles on them are are getting quite the hum.

    Ride after torsion bar crank

    2" is a lot. Cranking the torsion bars does not change the spring rate, it only changes the ride height. As Toasty said - things get really messed up if you hit the bump stops which a 2" raise is likely to do. As a note - cranking the torsion bars also changes the suspension travel in the up...

    Gen 3 front strut or coil 50mm spacer?

    Currently stock spring? I'm in the process of obtaining (in transit UPS says) ARB OME medium springs for all 4 corners of the '05. It will be riding on KYB Gas-A-Just shocks & 285/75R16 tires. BTW - those spacers in the photos above sure don't look like 50mm. More like 25mm (maybe 30mm).

    MUT reader or Raspberry Pi/Arduino stand in

    I've never used it, but I think EVOScan works on the early ECUs (Mitsubishi spin of OBD 1). Interface cable from ebay. Its $25 for the software. http://tunertools.com/evoscan!!!-software-license-!!-for-the-mitsubishi-and-subaru.html
