Is there a OBD2 dongle that’s Apple approved? I used torque back in the day when I had an Android, when I switched there wasn’t a single approved for iOS.

Won’t a cheap laptop off craigslist or the local classifieds fit the bill for HAM programming and diagnostics? I picked up a laptop to run the Volkswagen Audi Group diagnostics for $50. I can’t imagine trying to mount a laptop in my vehicle for nav purposes. People do it, but I wouldn’t work...

Four 1/2” grade 8 bolts with heavy flat washers, I don’t recall the length though.

Yeah, that’s why I said normally. I had a 25% off coupon. Does anyone ever pay “full price” at harbor freight?

Same here, 4-500 for a hidden winch mount when a lucky 8 bumper is $800? If I ever get done paying for college and weddings I’ll replace the bumper, but until then this works great.

It’s the “universal channel winch mount”, normally runs $50.

I don’t know why it works for me and not you, I’ve done nothing special. I’m guessing my version of Gaia is old enough I don’t have an issue, it’s been on there for quite some time. It may very well be I couldn’t install it today. You’re acting like ending support for old hardware is exclusive...

Beats me, I have had soooo much less trouble with apple products. I used to build my own home theater PCs and it was a constant battle to keep it working and virus free. Not to mention the hoops you had to jump through to network it to anything else. My iMac I bought used and it never fails. I...

I wasn’t trying to convince you to switch, I was offering a counter point to the low value you placed on Apple products.

Yeah, the cost of Apple products is always brought up by non-Apple users, including me once upon a time. The thing is, they just plain work. I used to be an windows/android user and got sick of the constant fiddling to keep it to working right. Our home computer is a 10 year old iMac, running...

I'm glad someone picked this up. If it hadn't been all the way across the country from me I'd have grabbed it myself!

Thanks, I'd be interested to hear your price. I'd never consider one new, they're stupid expensive and it's cheaper (and a better option for me) to buy a voyager racks carrier.

I'm kinda digging up an old thread here, but... What is the spare tire carrier you've got in the pics? I need to get my spare off my roof, but don't want to spend the coin on a $900 carrier or $2200 bumper for my LR3. Stupid wedding I have to pay for. :rage::confused::blush:

Here’s a few more pics. The release lever access is a little tight, but it works.

Yeah, there’s a write up on one of the Rover specific forums on an LR4, but it’s pretty much the same. I cut out the center section of the factory inner bumper and attached the harbor freight tray in it’s place. I had to mod the outer cover a little, but it’s all inside or very low and not...

As the weather is getting warmer here I am starting to contemplate my trailer project. I'm planning on a 4x6 by 24" tall box with a tailgate and 1 (maybe 2) large side doors up front, fixed top with some type of rack system for a RTT. I'd love to have it be adjustable height so I can use an...

Welcome, nice vehicle choice! I’ve got an ‘06. As mentioned, if you don’t already have a gap tool, get one (or something similar). I think they’re essential to have wether you off-road or not. In addition to the diagnostic capabilities, you can dial in extra height in the suspension instead of...

I’m not a professional photographer and I don’t play one on TV, but here’s the few I got. I was a little bummed as we were driving out that it was so cloudy, but it actually turned out to have a cool effect.

I’ll be making the long haul from Heber, planning on meeting up with those who are meeting in Tooele. I’ll have my 8yo and maybe my 2 teenage boys, if I can get them up in time. I’ll be in a gray LR3.

Do you use it on a tablet, or PC?
