    What are those things

    What's the most common culprit of the sprayers not working (sprayed once for like 10 sec and slowly stopped)? I had real weak wipers and after lubing all the linkages in the motor and firewall they became normal (minus parking :)

    Just replaced rear axle, now u-joint breaks

    Radio Setup

    I want to add a am/fm radio to my truck. How do most people install theirs (speakers and radio)? I was going to use the stock location, but it is the wrong size. Do most people just cut it up to fit? Pics and info would be great. Thanks, Miles

    Power Steering Fluid

    Fuel Tank Vent?

    Also the gauge goes to full and then reads after filling. Is that related or just a wacky gauge?

    Fuel Tank Vent?

    When ever I open my fuel cap I hear a hssss that only lasts a second or two. Is there a vent that I may need to check or is this normal?

    How long to charge 24v?

    When I cold start mine I start it and let it idle for a min then rev it and hold it till the gen lights go off. Once they are off my meter goes green in about 10-15 sec.

    Adding a Winch

    Can I use the 24V slave on the front as a quick-connect or is it not enough amperage?

    Adding a Winch

    Has anyone added a 24v winch to the front of the m1009? What are some good ones for a reasonable price? Also how do most people install them? Do they just add a receiver hitch on the front?
