While I am game for helping out on a ham / GMRS radio presentation, I do not believe it practical to do a ham license training class. There are many free ways to do the minimal study necessary to pass the FCC Technician Class license test. One of those ways is a free one day class where you take...

Didn't see this until after I arrived at Hernandez Hideaway around 6PM and too late to venture out into traffic to get to that part of the county.... Oh well, see y'all next month. Never saw any email or map link.

Glad to hear Sam got a good solution for his 40... Brian's Automotive is a great place to get work done! They used to be my go to shop for everything that was beyond my shade tree mechanic capabilities or back when I was too busy working to play with cars... But he's usually too busy for things...

Well the link works and shows the awning as right side only for $149.99, and the 25% coupon works, but when trying to check out their website freezes... Tried with and without coupon, and with MS Edge, Google Chrome and Firefox browsers, so it's Rhino not me... Maybe they're sold out, but it...

Gonna pass this year (again) as the dates are too close to our departure date for the Rocky Mtn Folk Music festival in Colorado.

FYI - Recent texting with Ted who is currently camping up in the New York mountains area of Mojave said the daytime temps were in the 80's and decent night time temps. However the place we camp there in 2019 had burned pretty badly not long ago.

IMHO - If it can't carry a sheet of plywood it's not a pickup truck.

Dues announcement updated with ZELLE news!

Have you checked your kickdown cable adjustment? My 80 did this pretty badly in the past and was much improved after adjusting. I think it's covered in the FSM. I couldn't find the mud posting about this so I did a Grok search which produced the following: Query - 80 series landcruiser slow to...

Those are nice, expensive, circuit breakers we used to use them at my company. Great for alternative power installations like batteries and solar panels.

Not sure what's different in the 100, but since I replaced the stereo on my 80 with an ATOTO head unit that provided for a rear camera input I got the ATOTO camera and installed it inside the trailer hitch receiver since I never tow anything. Works great and the guard lines with that system are...

It's probably worth checking to confirm that the input and output wires are not reversed. Basically a matter of swapping the INPUT and OUT2 wires on the Dakota Digital module. Or disconnecting those two wires from the module and connecting them together to verify the speedo works as it did...

I don't imagine an LS swap would affect the speedometer, assuming the transmission/speedometer sensor are the same... All the Dakota Digital does is intercept the speedo sensor signal on its way to the gauge cluster and adjust it as necessary to read correctly. The Dakota Digital as implemented...

Interesting. Some troubleshooting steps here... Was your speedometer working correctly prior to modification? (indicating the sensor was functional... ) Can you confirm good power at the Dakota? Are you sure the settings in the Dakota digital are configured correctly? My settings shown in photo...
