Depending on how the light falls, mine can/does look more full than it is at times. I use mileage exclusively for fuel; don't trust gauges on either tank. Just me?

This is the way. Nice work.

Brought dinner to friend momentarily at St. Joe's on Wednesday. As I was wrapping up an absolute slaughter of short ribs, it started to trickle, with some distant electrobooms making themselves known. Fifteen minutes later, at the main lobby, it was absolutely pounding. Natch' I'm way too tall...

Is there a chance that they declared two of the ones that were on the truck as 'ok' and only swapped the ones that did not respond to the readers (dead battery, otherwise dead)? I'd look at the hex ID's in techstream and see how different/similar all five numbers are; that may give a clue.

bump. happy to take an offer

Brosario. Whoa. I looked for that for ages! I am low skill (now verified). At one point I was just going to try to order a thousand of these and give them away to make Cruiser friends and gain Land influence. FYI if the hair-thin copper contacts fail, the plastics won't help much. I have a...

About 30 years ago, VAG started exhibiting 'the next/new' VW bus protos at car shows. I wished and salivated for decades, until the desire completely dissipated. About a month ago, I found one next to me at a traffic light; electric, and not really cab-over (thanks, Congress). Two things I...

looks like SolarEdge

This is a brilliant discovery. There should be enough wrecked Tacos out there (just given volume) to make these findable. I did a full uninstall and rehab on my switch, and it works like a charm again, but a full RnR would have been much easier. They come out, you just have to not use gorilla paws.

@xssfox glorious autismo. hat tip!

That's a 10-seater T4R. He's more legit in the SOB lane than me with Sally the inflatable passenger.

This is pure love of the platform. Spotted Monday I-17 s/b, moving briskly. For want of a motor, he reached for the angle-grinder and welding machine. You can't see it from this angle (homeboy moving way too fast), but the front end of the thing being towed looked like a nicely finished trailer...

Amazing source of trails, instructions, and difficulty ratings/descriptions. This lives in my glove box. https://funtreks.com/product/guide-to-arizona-backroads-4-wheel-drive-trails-3rd-edition/

Not trying to be Captain Obvious, but you should be totally confident that the rear springs are on the correct sides. Taller one should be starboard, US passenger, AUS driver (where your main fuel tank sits). Also, use all best practice for big suspension changes: open KDSS (both) valves no more...

I think the damper only has an impact on vibration mitigation of some sort at speeds over 35, but I'm not certain. What I do think: my PO (or his shop) pulled it when installing armor: remove bits from the t-case that don't get put back on, and just skip this thing as well. I think I bought mine...
