Hey guys, so I have a seriously blown front door speaker that makes listening to gravel shaken in a tin can sound better than my stereo. I have the JBL system in my 2006 LC and I really want to replace the speaker myself, but I'm not extremely knowledgeable about this stuff. I've read some...

Either turn off the radio or use the antenna switch to lower it prior to going through. I made the mistake of going through a car wash and forgetting to lower the antenna and now I have a useless metal boomarang that doesnt retract. You live and you learn I suppose.

The trailer I ended up going with is a 7'x16' dual axle cargo trailer with electric brakes on both axles. It's brand new (I'm picking it up from the factory), so I know it hasn't been abused and that the brakes will work. I'm currently having a trailer brake controller installed to make sure i...

Thanks for the good response. After seeing everybody's advice, I think I'm going to just go with a 7'x16" dual axle trailer with a brake control and WD towing system. I'll take it slow and hopefully that should do it!

Also a side note... I have Goodyear Duratrac 275/70/18s on right now... I'm not sure if that affects tow-ability.

Hey everybody.... so it looks like I'll be needing to move across the country here in the near future (IL-CA). Due to the strange nature of my move and uncertainty of where I will be moving to, I'm kicking around the idea of just buying a car mover trailer to put all of my things in (including...

Finding a nice 100 is all about patience and luck imho. I saw mine on a dealer's website and drove 3 hours to see it that day. When I decided to purchase, they told me they had just taken ownership of it the day before and that another guy was waiting to test drive it. Just lucky I guess...

Again the boundless generosity of my fellow mudders is shining. Big thanks to HEAVYMETAL for the receiver!

Thanks for all the info! Your setup looks pretty similar to mine with the tire size and all, so that is very helpful! I checked out the site and looked at the Curt brand hitch. It has that odd looking square cut out on the right side. Does yours have that too? I'm guessing that's for the exhaust...

Hey everybody.... so I recently picked up my hundy over the summer knowing that it didn't come with a factory tow hitch, but I didn't really have an immediate need for towing at the time, so it didn't matter. Now I have a need for towing, so I need to add a hitch. It has all of the wiring for...

I like the sound of the Magnaflow... I've been thinking about getting the same sort of setup for mine since my current exhaust is getting pretty rusty (gotta love living in the rust belt woop woop). How is the noise on the highway with the new exhaust? What is the purpose of removing the resonator?

I forgot to mention.... this is on a 2007 LC 100

Hey everybody. I just recently started having some issues with the power lock on the drivers door not working. It's one of those things that is just a hassle and I'm not sure what it could be since it's just the one door... Has anybody else had an issue like this, or had some success in fixing it?

I've owned an 80 series and now own a 100 series. I sold my 80 because the primer started to fade and I was 21 and as foolish as they come. Not a day goes by that I don't regret selling that cruiser. I love my 100, but IMHO it's just not the same feel. If you can find an 80 in good condition...
