    there are several useful videos on youtube. Bill Burke also does a class on it at 4wd events he presents at. Such as the Land Rover National Rally, Arizona Rally, coming up, etc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPC4tWmGXjg Winding rope on a winch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eHPhb071ZVU

    Antenna Ground on Rover

    It could be that mass of electronics / light next to the coil, try removing the light. You should just run a flat ground strap to the body ground, maybe near the hinge bolts on the rear door.

    The check engine light is most commonly associated with the throttle body being dirty. You can do it yourself. Also adding some cleaner treatment periodically helps. The one time I paid to have it done, the light came back on enroute to home, so I added sea foam and it went out a couple days...

    Is our fridge still working correctly?

    I did some testing with power usage, and temps. In the shade, garage in TX, my engel 32 is running about 36f, on about #2 on the dial. That's with a transit bag. 2nd fridge NL72DD at -18 and -1C respectively 0F with transit bag. Due to the design, there's a strap around it, to keep the bag...

    CL: New NATO Spec Jerry Cans - Desert Tan color - in Phoenix, AZ - $40 Each

    Are these German NATO Spec, I believe US military is using Scepter, hence the demand, because they are not sold in the US. I do know a guy though, and they pop up here all the time. I'm glad your happy, but not what I had in mind when I clicked the ad. Here's another can, looks the same, for...

    SPOT Trace Product....Theft-Alert Tracking Device

    In other words, it's free for 99.00 a year. Sounds like a cell phone company, only cheaper. Neat idea though.

    I'm not selling ARB Bumpers, just offered to help. I suggest you give british4x4outfitters or lucky8llc an opportunity to beat the price. B4x4 is in San Antonio. Now here's why I won't be spending a dime in 4wheel parts anymore. I bought a set of Nitto's from them, 2 years now, paid extra for...

    Dual Battery Isolator

    You can, but it's a bit of a pain. I like the looks of the Blue Sea system, I use Traxide and am in the process of testing another system which seems very nice the sidewinder system from Australia (actually the last 2 systems are from Australia). The primary difference between the last two are...

    Parasitic Discharge?

    I think you're probably ok, but test with a multimeter and see what you find. I am making the assumption it's the temp, and it sounds ok.

    Parasitic Discharge?

    As the temperature & charge level varies the conductivity and charging voltage. As you get charged, and float, power might be used and power might drop, but I suspect it's the temperatures. If you've got a temperature sensors somewhere the charging voltage is going to vary based on temperature...
