    2500 Mile First Gen Roadtrip!

    We make super long trips in ours all the time. We are headed to Belize in a couple months. I think its over 2500 miles one way, give or take. I run LT285/75/16 Nitto grapplers. They have a small bit of hum but with the radio on, its hard to hear. They also do pretty good offroad.

    99 Expy 4x4 Transmission Service Question

    By looking at the Radiator, how can I tell if I have one inside? It has a trailer hitch and wiring in the rear so Im guessing it came with the towing package.

    I need dual batteries. I have a Smittybuilt hidden winch, 20" Led light bar, 40" LED light bar and 6 4" LED lights. It was really easy to do and set up. Just the batteries cost so much. Other than that it was a piece of cake.

    What are you doing to SUV this weekend?

    I installed it all in a couple hours. The dual battery box that I bought fit right where the old one was. I found it on Amazon. I just mounted it to the side and bottom of the vehicle. So the isolator controls where the charging power goes. Its primary target is the main battery(red top). When...

    Yes. If you look to the right you with see a clear box with True on it. That is the isolator. Works well. It lights up to let you know which battery is charging.

    First I sanded it down with 80 grit sandpaper. Then I washed it with SOS pads to clean it. I let it dry in the sun for a while. After dry, I wiped it down with a tack cloth and painted. It came out really well. No bad spots.
