    Help a brotha out: question about tires for a Samurai in Madagascar

    My sister & brother-in-law are teaching in Madagascar. Yeah, I'm a little jealous too. They bought a little Suzuki Samurai (I think it's actually a Santana) in pretty decent shape, which is difficult because preventative maintenance is not exactly a practiced theory over there. They named him...

    garage sale-Garmin Geko gps, ipod cable, scales, etc

    Oops, sorry PirateMcGee From what I understood, the original post made it sound like the TPS was new. ClownMidget, if we could clarify that would be great. Like I said, this was just meant to be a spare so I don't technically NEED it (hopefully I never will). So PirateMcGee, I'd be happy to...

    garage sale-Garmin Geko gps, ipod cable, scales, etc

    Clownmidget, I'm going to hold off on sending money until yall work this out...looks like we've got a little communication breakdown. I think it's only fair that PirateMcGee get the first stab at the TPS if he wants it. Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere so I guess you can consider it sold...

    My Wandering Soul

    Not that anyone who's helped so far is asking for you to "make right" with everyone... But since you sound determined to anyways (which I fully respect), I feel the best way for you to do that would be to keep telling your story, share as many pictures as you can, enjoy your journey and then...

    1st GEN 22RE Exhaust Manifold leak: HELP

    I've seen quite a few cases of warped exhaust manifolds on Yotatech...apparently it's not too uncommon for our rigs. Bummer, at least it didn't cost you much.

    Firefighters and Public Safety

    :Wow1: this thread's been around for a while. Ponder this...if you had the best job in the world (firefighter), but it was in a city & state that you don't want to live in anymore...would you consider quitting to find a job on the other side of the country? End of this year I'll be doing just...

    Exactly. Space is precious in our vehicle, so I don't want to haul anything that we're not going to sell or use.

    Overland Expo '11 Swap Meet?????

    I am definitely down for a tailgate swap meet. I've got a bunch of stuff that's not really worth the hassle of shipping. Should we post up lists & prices like the guys are doing for the Desert Rendezvous? It'd be nice to arrange beforehand what I'm buying/selling...

    Compressors: Patton philosophy?

    I tested my MV-50 immediately when it arrived on my door step and it worked great. The other day I whipped out the compressor to help a guy air up his 37's. After the first tire he mentioned the inline fuse was getting hot. I opened the cap and it had melted the fuse into the fuse holder (the...

    interior panel / door insulation

    Perfect timing. I just removed all of my rear interior and I'm getting ready to improve the insulation and sound dampening...I bought some eDead 45, but it's very thin so I feel like I need to layer something else in there. I'm trying to find some rubber or vinyl flooring to replace the carpet...
