    '06 Sprinter!! Nice find- and it hits the easy button square on!!

    I have been reading and reading on the T1N, and wonder if anyone has a concise top 5? things to watch/swap/correct/fret over? Thanks for all the help- I have wanted one of the Sprinters for many years, and I am loving it!!

    '06 Sprinter!! Nice find- and it hits the easy button square on!!

    Java, wish I had those integrated lights you have up high- very sweet. I do agree with Mike, the lights up high are seldom used. Sometimes when camping remotely, but mostly at slow speeds on lonesome gravel roads- like Alcan or through Labrador. For normal use, a good set of driving and fogs on...

    '06 Sprinter!! Nice find- and it hits the easy button square on!!

    Hey Mike, yes the adhesive is tough as nails as they say, but time for some chemicals ;-) As far as suspension, it will be tough with this behemoth. It does have the air bags which help some, and I am going to 235/85-16 Duratracs, so I will wait to see how it feels then. They are a bit...

    '06 Sprinter!! Nice find- and it hits the easy button square on!!

    Little update- got the new grille on, but what a pain getting the old tape off?! Must be the age and sun... Also ordered 4 wheels to facilitate painting in preparation for new tires ;-)..

    Yes sir, me thinks so. I have a nice little D-I and trying to decide to stick the lockers in it, or sell them- and the Disco. But I will be there- and you realize rendezvous is the same w/e across 109? Let me know if you want it so I can post accordingly. Thanks

    Not bad really- I would say 5 minutes with two having done it before. Or 15 min if in chill mode. Seems like nothing compared to the Base Camp Conqueror....

    Land Rover vs. Syncro t3 Vanagon

    Budget would help a lot. I have heard the Syncros demand a premium, which could put you into a newer LR like an LR3 in which case a no brainer to me. But if you are talking older high mile Disco or Defender, get a shop manual and be a bit handy. Zero experience with the Syncros, sorry... But a...

    Kodiak Canvas tent 10'x14' like new!!

    To be honest, I am not sure. It obviously has the twin flaps on front and back, and I am thinking deluxe- but hate to over promise. So assume basic and be either pleased, or possibly ecstatic if deluxe. I wasn't being lazy, but had bilateral total shoulder replacements, so wasn't too keen on...
