    Lowrance Baja540C & MapCreate 7 questions

    When I purchased MapCreate7 it came with the card reader and a 512 meg card.

    Baja 540 Maps?

    So did I, just waiting for it to show up. I'll be wiring it to switched source, too. Reading that it draws constant power even when off isn't too appealing to me. It seems inconsistant when aquiring signal from a cold start, though. It's been mostly under a minute, but yesterday it took more...

    Baja 540 Maps?

    I'm going to guess by the loud silence that yes, I do have to spend more money to get it to work right.

    Looking for a CB Antenna mount solution

    I know you said front, but I'm curious as to why you don't use the hinge mount that goes in the back?

    Baja 540 Maps?

    I just got home with my new Lowrance Baja 540C and I'm bummed. I plugged it, configured it, tried to zoom in on myself, and wow, nothing. There's nothing on the screen. My 60 year old street isn't on the map, neither is the larger cross street. Nor does the unit show a 40 year old state highway...

    M101CDN 'hybrid'

    The old bolt pattern matches the VW pattern of 5 on 112MM.

    Wider Fender for CDN M101?

    I recently did a spring over on my CDN M101 and changed the hubs to match my Jeep. I also put the same rims and tires (15X8 black steel rims with 33X12.5 BFG ATs) on the trailer... the problem I have now is that the fenders only cover about half the tire. I'm not real interested in throwing mud...

    Charge Controller?

    The charging circuit from the Jeep will probably be #10 like everyone has guessed. The trailer batteries will likely be charged mainly at the house prior to leaving (turning the fridge on and loading it with food the night before, etc) and using the Jeep to keep the batteries topped off while...

    Charge Controller?

    I'm in the middle of building my CDN M101 trailer and I'm finally starting the electrical. While I don't have all of the accessories picked out, I'll eventually be putting in a dual battery system to run a fridge, a radio or two (music and CB) some small lights, etc. I'm not sure what it would...

    Unlimited wrangler (LJ) Daily driver/expedition vehicle

    Are you buying this used? I didn't see anything on AEV's product list that says they're selling Nth stuff yet. While armor is never a bad thing, have you been hitting the steering box and control arms on rocks already? If you hit them often enough, maybe a lift with taller tires might be in...

    LJ/TJ setup for towing?

    I have a Jeeperman for my LJ, and although it hasn't given me any problems towing my fully overloaded CDN M101 trailer, I'm thinking I might change it out in the coming year. No structural issues or anything out of the ordinary, I'm just thinking there might be something else out there that's...

    Overland Ready

    Very similar to the direction I'm heading - dual batteries, controllable charging circuit for trailer, brake controller. I'm also planning on a roof rack with a removable/connectorized harness for the lights I'd like to mount on it. I'll probably go with a standard 4 pin trailer harness for...

    Extended Range Gas Tank for Wranglers.

    You might be mistaken. The tank is longer than the TJ tank, so much so that it goes from the rear crossmember to about an inch and half from the rear diff. I'm pretty sure you don't have that much room in a TJ, but I don't have one handy to measure. There's a crossmember a few inches in front...

    Extended Range Gas Tank for Wranglers.

    I stuffed the tank in today. I'd say it was easier if not quicker than the motor mount lift. It holds just over 31.5 gallons in it, depending on how much I spilled from the Jerry can. The back of the Jeep seems heavier, but it could be all in my mind. The exhuast is too close for my liking, I'm...

    Extended Range Gas Tank for Wranglers.

    I finished my body lift last night, and I'm taking a break on putting the motor mount lift as I type. I picked up my tank yesterday from Tony and I'll hopefully be putting it in next weekend. The driver's side mount was a pain in the ass... I hope the tank goes a bit smoother than the MML. I'm...

    Overland Ready

    If it's an open invite to Mojave Road I might be able to swing out from Vegas.. If not, no worries. Couldn't find Mojave Road on google maps really quickly, either.

    Extended Range Gas Tank for Wranglers.

    I got a call today - I'll have my tank next Friday.:wings:

    Extended Range Gas Tank for Wranglers.

    It'll cost you about $1000 for the tank. Here's the page over at Gen-Right. Oh wait, you've got a TJ? I'm not sure this will fit. I think the Enduro will give you 24.5 gallons...

    Tire/wheel Question

    There are pros and cons to both types of wheels (steel VS aluminium).... off the top of my head, though, steel rims are heavier, occasionally out of round even when brand new out of the box, and will most likely have a different back spacing than your factory rim (not including the OEM rims...

    The non Rubicon models (should) have the 231, which is a slip yoke.
