    Have had this for a while. Usually, but not exclusively, when starting for the first time each day turn the key and...nothing. Wiggle key...nothing. Hold key to the far right...nothing. Then, LC just fires up. Most days, that's it. But, occasionally, this happens after turning off the...

    Water dripping on my left foot

    On last week's Baja trip we did encounter some rain. Since I was wearing shorts and flip flops I could feel the occasional drop of water. I could not locate it and forgot about once we hit our southern destination where it was not raining. Hmmm...

    Drove the 80 all the way down Baja..

    Highway miles mostly. 150 miles of salt flats, deep sand and the occasional rocky section. The Harbor Freight trailer did its job with the BMW GS. Carried extra gas but mostly for peace of mind. The ARB compressor help re-air the tires quite nicely even though I never got around to mounting it...

    Tie rod tune up time

    Gathering the parts to do a front end tune up. OEM vs. Moog vs. eBay vs. GM and other heavy duty alts Any thoughts on which is the correct solution? Are Zerk fittings an added bonus? Or just something that will break off? Should I be ordering anything in addition to the four tie rod ends?

    Removed rear heater. Now what can those electrical links be used for?

    I am fairly certain other Mudders have taken advantage of new-found electrical leads from the rear heater fan switches circuit. Any suggestions on how to go about using them?

    Removed the OEM rack. Now what bedliner to use on roof.

    Getting to mount my Craiglist Con-Ferr jumbo rack. Removed the OEM rack this weekend. Had one buggered nut joint and one frozen one that got its bolt hacksawed off. The rest came off cleanly. The protection strips were, of course, glued on but, oddly, screwed down with sheet metal screws, not...

    And, if so, is there a source for a complete kit. Or, would a few feet of silicone hose be the way to go? I'm thinking blue!
