    Those were the good ole days. Air - fuel - spark. Now you need a computer to read a computer that reads little computers all over engine. The only thing I like about new cars is the nice bluetooth but I hate talking on the phone anyway.

    I guess you gotta surrender at some point...to a degree.
    I'm looking forward to trying/having adaptive dampers though.

    Of course. I am still waiting for the ShiftPod III Mini to finally (fing forever wait) to show up in stock.

    I was thinking about a shell with this system but probably much to bulky.

    I bought a 3rd gen and spent 15 months resenting everything it wasn't and every car payment it was. My brand new 7k mile subaru just broke and is at dealer. My pos 1st gen daily never breaks enough to not drive. Its always got broke shit but it always fires up and drives.

    I understand that an axle truss enables you to mount upper link mounts which is kinda nice. But, can anyone tell me wtf you need these huge full axle trusses on massive 1 ton axles for trucks other than comp buggy apps? I don't get why these trusses are being pushed so hard. I hate them. They hold dirt, salt and moisture and will rust and you have a 1/2" thick tube to weld to. Plus they look stupid and bulky like some military axle.

    One of these traces is not like the others. Could not figure out why my dash lights wouldn't turn on in the new Tracker.

    Lol yeah that would do it. When I modified my instrument cluster to indicate 4HI and 4LO I utilized the unused ABS light. I had to solder a wire from terminal to terminal since the lamp wasn’t connected to the terminal since my truck didn’t have ABS.

    Funny enough, this one has lights wired in for features it doesn't have, and blanks in others it doesn't have :confused:

    There's a market for anything that looks military-esque.
