I'm looking into trading my 4R for an LR3. Is there a better year or trim package that I should look for? I've heard about a coil springs suspension being offer in the early run (05-06?) but are they so rare I'll likely not find one and is the air suspension troublesome. I'll be using this as...

Spotted this one on another forum and though it might find some interest here. No affiliation, yada, yada. http://web.me.com/racingjason/Dormobile_for_Sale/Welcome.html

I've been wanting to do more MTB for a while. My 94 Trek 870 is a bit out of it's league these days so I've been looking around. The terrain around here is mostly flat and swampy, there are often ravines and drops in the woods but no real long climbs. This is a pine forest area so there are...

I know many of us upgrade out audio and my Sony deck just died on me. I was wondering if anyone has a factory unit taking up space that you might want to sell.

My radio stopped receiving, the CD player works and I get hiss from the speakers with the tuner on. I pulled apart the dash last night and checked all connections and wires and could not find a problem so either the tuner part of the stereo is gone or I have a break in the connection where the...

I've located a 71 that is complete but apparently has bad rust on the frame. I've not been able to look it over but I might this weekend. I'm familiar with frame swaps on series Rovers-is the 40 similar? Is a frame swap something common?

In building my photo kit I am in need of a good tripod. The last one I used was a solid/heavy Bogen that was owned by the event photo company I worked for so I haven't put much thought in to them. I see that carbon fiber has become the material of choice which I can understand for it's low...

As a hold out fan of film I've noticed that the prices of used F5's are very attractive. Add to this that I used to lust after this camera in the Nikon catalog but I knew there was no way I could afford it new. So..how is it and if you can compare it with the F100 that would be great as that...

I was given the gift of a new lens for Fathers Day and my wife and daughter being the smart people they are just told me to pick it out as I got way too far into lens geek world when I tried to tell them which lens I prefered. So here it the short list based on recomendations from here and...

I am off on a business trip this week. I will driving to Lexington KY tomorrow (MON) and using that as a base until Wednesday. I will be going through Asheville, Knoxville, and then to Lexington. I will also be in Louisville and Evansville, IN Anyone have any good camera shop suggestions in or...

Excuse the question but I'm not familiar with the FX format details other than it is essentially 35mm in size and is the hot tend in DSLR's My question is related to lenses and compatabilty. It was mentioned in another thread that DX lenses will not work on FX bodies due to the cropping aspect...

I am wondering about the valuation of used gear and if there is a "standard" way of setting price. In another hobby of mine, guitars, the usual used value is 45-50% of the retail value for a used acoustic on very good-excellent condition. This mostly relates to Martin guitars but also applies...

My old Cannon compact RF needs light seals, the originals crumbled away. I was thinking I could handle this job myself but I'm having trouble finding the supplies. Maybe I'm using the wrong search words or just the wrong sites. Anyone know a good source for this?

As I've mentioned in the Lens thread I need an all round lens for my D70s. I've read a lot of reviews and I think I've got it down to 2-3. At the top of the list is the 17-55 f2.8 but the $$ is an issue. The 16-85 f3.5-5.6 is about 1/2 the cost and I like the range as it works very well with my...

I've found a used Voightlander Bessa-R with a 50 f1.5 for sale. I got some pictures of the camera from the shop today, they are asking $499 for the kit which I am guessing is a little high but how much? If I offered $450 for this kit would it be a good buy?

I've wanted a rangefinder 35mm for a long time. I've always lusted after Leica's but the sticker shock has and continues to keep me from owning one. I am starting the look into getting one and I am wondering if the Zeiss Ikon range finders are a good alternative to the Leica. I guess what I am...

I tried to install my seat brackets today only to figure out these are the brackets for the adjustable seats sans the sliders. Without the sliders the brackets will not install without drilling the seat base-which I'd like to avoid. So..any one have some sliders for a series laying about that...

Is there a commonly availible sender/float that will work in a IIa tank? I just had my tank cleaned and sealed and found my sender is toast. I know I can get replacements from the usual sources but if there is something I can find at Napa or similar that would be even better.

I've just ordered my seats for the IIa. I'm going with the deluxe trim low backs and will be mounting them to the brackets fixed. I've got the brackets and hardware for them but what do I need to attach the seats to the brackets? I'd like to get the hardware now and have it ready when the seats...

I have determined from a fuel filter change(clear one) that my stalling problems are from crud in the fuel from the old tank. With the amount of crud in the fuel (looks like fine rust particles)I am assuming the elec fuel pump is toast as well so I am changing it back to manual-I didn't like the...
