The wireless ones never worked in my area, too much interference and too many strong stations. This wired one is supposed to turn-off the antenna input when powered up and feeds the input directly in through the antenna wire to the stereo. I've driven cross country many times and never a lick of interference. I'm not

I have no idea how those lights command the priced they are asking. I grew up with the old KC Daylighters being the standard and $1500 would put a whole family of smiley faces on your light bar.

Have about 5 years on that same setup in my pickup, works great. I disassembled the little black plug box and mounted the switch and plug in blank panel in the dash.

With them folded out you can get a better view of the rear wheel placement, useful when negotiating tough obstacles (the taco-bell drive-thru comes to mind).

These are the items that bring that bumper price up.

The Carfax came back clean so it must be a deal.

Yeah, I'm not big on the headlights either, but I bet there are plenty of guys out there that would be lining up to swap you their stock set for them.

They have the Black Express package that would be pretty much that. All the black...

Mostly Chrysler and AMC with an occasional Chevy or Oldsmobile thrown in. Ford is different.

It seats 4 but is twice as fast, so everyone still gets there on time.

Now-a-days we can hop in any car in the world, and even if we can’t figure out the infotainment system, we can at least drive it.

1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2 - Commited to memory 20 years ago. If I ever have Alzhiemers at least I’ll be able to do a tune-up on most american V8’s

I drove home one day last year with mine on the passenger seat. Quick pull start from a Combine, let the clutch out in 2nd, starts right up drive home and and get to change the special order because it specific to a manual trans starter out in the comfort of my own garage instead of a cornfield.

Good warning to keep in mind. I’ve run a drag car around with a stripped down column, but I can’t think of a time I ever took the key out of the ignition let alone had a key ring on it. Those fusible link’s can be a pain in the rear, I replaced a handful of them on my car 2 years ago, they simply got old and corroded

Easy, A few years ago I came into an 89 Lancer ES Turbo with a burned up clutch and title issues, ended up parting it out, and still have parts from it. Last year I happened across a package deal on a wrecked 87 Shelby Lancer and 86 Lebaron GTS parts car. Both were rusted beyond repair so I saved all I could from

I’ve got 2 spare Lancer grills and a set of taillights on a shelf in the barn...

I trim the potting compound off with a knife close to the component and then use a stiff plastic brush to get the rest. Done this many times when I socket an ECU, including the one in my 89 Shadow. Not a fun job, but far from impossible.

The coatings used and location of the lines. I’ve had lots of 20 yr old salt belt vehicles with holes in the floors, rocker panels rotted through but good brake lines still. Those GM trucks put the lines in a bad spot right behind the tire along the frame, and the lines don’t last like others I’ve seen.

It is common on around here, but the GM trucks have lines rusting out much faster than most vehicles. I’ve seen some rotted through on vehicles 3-4 years old when most other makes seem to go at least 8-10 years before this is an issue. I had to replace every line on my uncles 06 Silverado within 5 years on a truck
