    In-dash stereo options?

    I just put a single DIN alpine in my truck in your price range. It has blue tooth and Ipod control. I got a mounting kit that has a slot/compartment that fills the upper DIN. Perfect place for the Ipod to sit out of site. My ipod cable comes off the back of the head unit so there are no...

    Are your expedition/overland vehicles auto, or stick?

    Unless you are being paid to deliver a small pox vaccine to the southern tip of Africa, I assume you overland/expediton travel for fun, right? What do you like to drive for fun. My DD will always be auto. My fun vehicles are sticks when possible.

    XJ Diagnosis help

    I have seen a bad cps do what you describe several times. Check for codes. They start out intermittent then get worse until you have a no start situations. I beleive they do allow spark b/c we started my buddies several times on starter fluid to get it home. Replaced the cps and all was normal

    Head unit power source(s)

    In my 04 F250, the factory radio continues to play after the vehicle is shut off and the key is removed until you open the door. This is neat feature that I really like. I replaced the head unit with one from Alpine a few years ago and the feature remained. Last night, I put in a new Alpine...

    Astro Van AWD - 2" or 4" lift?

    I did 2" on mine recently. Ran into problems with front body mounts that were rusted out. You said it was a $500 dollar van. If you buy new 31s, you wil be doubling its value.:elkgrin: You can start with 2", then go to 4 later. None of the work precludes the other. I pieced together...

    TJ Manual hub question?

    1. If you have manual hubs, you can have a real bombproof front locker, and still steer. Otherwise you must go selectable which is more money and arguably less reliable. 2. If you break an axle shaft with manual hubs you just unlock and drive home, I did that this summer 3. yes it is cooler
