    Lowrance HDS-5 Available?

    It is my understanding that the "Baja" designation means that that they are more dust proof and some components are secured better. I have also been told by a Lowrance unit these lessons have been built into all the units making it a marketing term. Take that for what is is worth

    Lowrance HDS-5 Available?

    This is an Email i got from Off Road Warehouse. So we got all the new HDS Lowrance models in stock. I was a little disappointed that the new HDS5m Baja does not have the cool 3-D looking screen (shaded relief) that the 7,8, and 10 have. On the up side, they do load the pages MUCH faster than...

    telescoping antenna mast?

    I will have to look but the are light and no bigger than 3". the seals are leather, big and odd shaped, I tried soaking them but the are to far gone. I have not laid eyes on them in a couple of years, maybe I will head over to his race shop and look at them again.

    Lowrance HDS-5 Available?

    ORW has a good price as well. I understand the 3D is not available on the 5 but is on the larger 8. Reports are good on these, maybe some good deals on 7200's as people upgrade.

    Can you ID this hat?

    telescoping antenna mast?

    A friend has a couple of those pneumatic masts, unfortunately the seals are so dried out that it will not deploy. I looked at having seals made and it made your $450 look cheep. I also spent a day at a big seal house in PHX looking through catalogs with no results.

    telescoping antenna mast?

    The mount is a 2" thin wall tube welded in a tee to a 2" square tube that plugs into the receiver hitch. It uses a coupe of 1/2 bolts for set screws. I have a pivot mount designed but never built that uses a swinging trailer jack. I don't have a pic, but it is long enough to allow the...

    telescoping antenna mast?

    This is my set up, would have been expensive if the material was not free:) It is two 10' sticks of 1 1/2 alum. ridgid conduit, and one piece of 1". the 1 1/2 is joined with a coupler and the 1" is pined in place. I use a 2xb ringo ranger antenna. This pic is at the Baja 500, doing relay...

    Walker Evans Racing - Coil Over Shocks

    KEENO, these coilovers are made to be stand alone shock and springs. I doubt that you could get the valving and spring rate dialed in to make make the shocks work in your application. What you are doing is making a secondary suspension, have seen it tried in Desert racing aplications and is...

    F350 as Dakar support vehicle

    Support trucks require full padded roll cage and race seats/harnesses. They have all the electronics the race cars have. Costs serious money to race Dakar. [/IMG]

    Jeep Cherokee Motor Mounts

    I like the Brown Dog mounts, with the block plates. I built my own back in 98' when there were no other options, they look just like the Brown Dog mounts. My opinion is the stock mounts are broken to begin with, made for ant-vibe not strength. The block mounts are just as bad, My motor...

    Tires - alternative to Michelin XZL's

    The Baja's are great tires. I used them on my XJ (33x10.50x15)when I lived in San Felipe and they were perfect for the terrain. However with there tendency to flat spot and extreme pavement wear (they are a race tire). You would need several pairs to make a trip of this length. I am a BFG...
