Still Happy with Diode Dynamics? Seems these and Morimoto are quite pricey, but they do have a lot of engineering and research info on their site. I'm still running the OEM style halogens and don't mind paying the price if they are truly worth it. Might try to replace the lenses since mine are...
Well, we finally had time last Friday to check out a trail close to SLC. We took MDARIUS' advice and went up to Farmington to Skyline Drive. VERY NICE! The GX470 was sure footed throughout. My only worry was the cheapo front tires the dealer installed when I bought it, but they held up well...
I bought one of these 8 Inch RG58 SMA Female to UHF SO239 Female Adapter Cable for Wouxun Baofeng USA | eBay
so I wouldn't strain the connector on the HT. Easy connection to the HT.
My Kenwood Specs say it pulls 11 Amps during transmit. I use direct hot and ground straight to the Battery in my installations. Can't remember the gauge, but it's probably around 14 and fused at the battery end. Personally that is the only way I would make connections.
Wow! I feel like I have personal tour guides here! This is great stuff. I will have to check these out. MDarius and Live to Ski, thanks for being SO helpful!
Sorry, I probably am not 100% sure what I am doing. I haven't done offroading of any sort since we ran through the strip mines in W. Pa in a home-made VW buggy 30+ years ago. I just bought my GX which is my first off-road capable vehicle. Didn't really buy it for off-roading, just liked the ride...
Thanks, Live to Ski, looks like it may be a nice ride if I am looking at the Google Earth correctly, but I am not interested in overnighting on the trail. Daytime only.
Hi there,
I may be in Utah with a bone stock 07 GX this summer. Any mild scenic trails I could do within a few hours of SLC? Not looking for anything extreme (i.e. don't want to dig myself out) and will not have camping gear. Seems like a "DUH" question but we have only been to Arches and Zion...
Well, I knew mine was broken before the purchase, but could not believe that I had to buy a $1000+ armrest to get a replacement. Best I was able to do was find a wrecking yard who will sell me the whole seat for $150. Even at that, I am not convinced a cupholder is worth that much. I will...
