    Shopping for tires Gen 3 BFG T/A KO

    dropped the tire pressure to 32 (@48 deg F) on Saturday about 30 psi this morning at 20 deg F. Still kinda squirmy on that particular stretch of road. I decided to test the road by also driving my '92 down it. About a 4 mile stretch. No squirming at all. 32 psi this morning in the Wild...

    Asus tablet for GPS?

    I don't see that it has a built in GPS although it might. Also 8GB is pretty light on storage, will need to rely on the expansion slot. edit: It does have a GPS, single front non auto focus 0.3mp camera. Probably not a bad deal if you can live with running off the expansion slot and a poor...

    Asus tablet for GPS?

    I have this HTC EVO version - Sprint branded but I've never hooked it up to 4G or been on contract with Sprint, its older, I've had it for at least a couple years, but works great with Google maps and Backcountry Nav tethered to my phone. Built in GPS, WIFi, Bluetooth etc. Can probably find...

    Steering Stabilizer / Damper

    I have a brand new in box Rancho kit that I would surely part with for a Gen 1 / 2 if you want to try it on your Gen 3.

    Shopping for tires Gen 3 BFG T/A KO

    Tire shop that mounted them. Had no idea. I asked for 35 psi when they mounted them up. Didn't check until today when doing an oil change and part of my routine checks. Guess that goes to show - never assume anything.

    Shopping for tires Gen 3 BFG T/A KO

    Dropped the air pressure from 45 psi to 35 psi. BETTER! Going to drop to 32 psi tomorrow and drive on the same grooved road. Its not too close to our house, but is on a frequent route of my wife. (guess where the original complaint came from)

    removing front driveline tips?

    Clears fine on my Gen 1 and Gen 2. Never pulled the Gen 3. Just have a pan ready. First time I pulled one I got a face bath in 90w.

    Shopping for tires Gen 3 BFG T/A KO

    Almost a month on the tires. Not so sure about the size. We have a lot of "grooved" pavement here to aid in traction in snow. These narrow tires seam to follow the grooves much more than any of the other tires we run. Truck also doesn't seam to ride as firmly planted to the road as with 265...

    Fridge Setups .. Batteries and more Q's

    The newer ARBs with the low voltage shutoff (didn't know older ARBs didn't have this feature) have 3 settings: Shut off voltages are: 10.1 low 11.4 med 11.8 high As a percentage of battery discharge, all of these settings are REALLY low to consistently use as a crutch. Even the highest setting...

    Fridge Setups .. Batteries and more Q's

    I doubt that your stock battery will support the usage you are proposing. Figure at maximum 20 hours to get to 50% discharge for a 65 amp hour battery. You really don't want to go lower discharge than this unless you have a deep cycle or AGM. Plus you won't get charged back full in 20 minutes...

    crankshaft seal vs crankshaft seal kit?

    I'm not sure if those gaskets are duplicates or not. I guess it depends on the timing kit you are buying (or bought).

    Updated crank bolt question.

    The new washer isn't mushroom shaped. The new bolt shown in my photo is for a 3.5 and 3.8l, The 3.0l is shorter. I'll add a photo later.

    Recommendations for a flexible arm tablet mount?

    I use something similar on my 7" as your amazon link, only from RAM. It cost a bit more, but works quite well.
