We have some negatives from a Hasselblad we would like to get printed. Is there a place anyone can recommend? Thanks, James

I was playing with Bing maps this morning, I discovered a nice feature. I was looking for the Ashust-Hayden Diversion Dam near Florence, Arizona, so I typed in "Florence, AZ". Under the search box, there are options to search for Businesses, People, Collections, and Locations. I clicked the...

My colleague just rebuilt the engine in his 94 Silverado, and he is not all concerned he did not get the cam timing right. So, he just asked me if it is an interference engine, and can he ruin it by trying to start it. I told him I was 99% sure that the 350s are all non-interference engines...

Is there an always-on or accessory-on hot wire at the rear of an 06 Silverado where I can easily tap into? I want to put our cooler back there, which draws 5 amps max.

We bought an Estwing Geo/Paleo Pick to use for rockhounding. It turns out is is also an excellent piece of recovery gear. Especially when you are trying to pull a rock out from under your vehicle, and you don't have a whole lot of room to work. It is about as large a pick as you can swing...

Does it take measured points and divide the distance between them by the elapsed time, or does it calculate it from the Doppler effect? Or does it depend on the unit?

My first ABS equipped vehicle was our 93 Range Rover. It has a valve block, an abs pump, an accumulator, and no brake booster. Our 95 Volvo and 06 Chevy both have brake boosters, but no accumulator that I can see. Is this a case of the accumulator taking the place of the brake booster?

What an effective way to display imagery and mapping data. Too bad it costs $59,000. http://www.pbs.org/kcet/wiredscience/video/231-touchtable.html

I can find several web-based tools that convert township and range and section to something my GPS can understand. I would like to find one that runs on my laptop or my handheld, so I can use it without being connected to the web. Is there anything out there? I could do it the old-fashioned...

I plan to list parts here as I get them. Anything that doesn't sell here will go on eBay. My eBay name is kjhranch, so look that up if you are looking for something. Everything is located in Tucson. I have already shipped parts as far away as Australia, so I am not afraid of international...

Since I know several of you are also on the Mendo List:

Every week or two I put a piece of the Range Rover I am parting out on eBay. I was wondering whether folks here would want to know about these items as they go up for auction, or if you were prefer they stay off of here? I couldn't find any policy on this in my search of the archives.

Sold I have a Rover differential, 24 spline, from a 1993 Range Rover. I also have the rear half shafts. 120,000 miles. Located in Tucson. Shipping weight is 63 lbs for the diff, and a few more for the halfshafts. $40 OBO for the diff and halfshafts.

My 4.7 Salisbury ring and pinion arrived today from England. I went out to compare them with the Rover ones, and took some photos. The Rover 4.7 ring and pinion and carrier weigh about 23 pounds, including the bearings but excluding two of the spider gears, since they fell out in little bitty...

These are interesting. Probably a little hard to get in North America.

So, I have a new Garmin Vista Unit, and I want to take a whole pile of places I have saved on Google Earth and put them in the Garmin. I can export the places as .kmz or .kml files, but Garmin MapSource doesn't appear to import those. What can I do to get these waypoints in?

I got two new jerry cans for Christmas (YAY!). Does anyone know what the two small holes in the front of the handle are for? They almost look like where a nameplate gets riveted on.

It looks a lot like a Jeep, but it says Mitsubishi: http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21646

It looks an awful lot like a Jeep, but has the Mitsubishi logo on the front. Does that make it a Jitsubishi or a Mitsubeep?
