Tech Talk / Dual Batteries & Switch
December 12, 2010, 09:51:37 AM
Does anyone have dual batteries and switch setup? If so can you provide some details?

1. What brand of switch? What ones are better & why?
2. Did you have to install a different alt. to handle the extra load.
3. Battery Type

I have a 2004 TJ stock Jeep. It has a second battery tray already installed on the drivers side.

Thanks,
Dave

Tech Talk / Pop Corn Noise from Front of my TJ
July 18, 2010, 06:03:19 PM
I still have a noise coming from the front of my stock TJ.  It only does it at low speeds, when going over a small bump in the road, etc.  I have replaced the links to the front stabilizer, and put new poly bushings on the front track bar.  The nosie is a metal on metal sound, and it only does it after you have been driving for 2-4 miles.  Could it be the upper or lower control arms?  Also are those under any pressure, or can you just take the bolts out and they fall off.  Can the arm go bad, or do I just need to get new bushings?   Sorry for all the questions.  Heading to Colorado, Moab and AZ and want to get this thing fixed.

Thanks,
Dave

Tech Talk / CB Radio Problem
June 05, 2010, 04:34:01 PM
I get engine noise/feedback in my CB.
I have installed a Uniden 520 CB in my Jeep.  I have a rear bumper mount ant., 4 ft. Fire Stick.  I ran the ant. wire along the inside next to all of the electrical harness that runs to the back for the hard top.  I have run the hot and ground wire to the fuse box and tried to run it straight to the battery.  I also purchased a noise filter and still have the same problem.  I verified that the ground wire to the ant. is good.  In fact I installed a new one just to make sure.  I have a handheld CB and I can send and received just fine, from a distance of about ΒΌ mile.  If I turn the squelch up the noise stops.  

Has anyone else had this problem?  If you did, what was your solution?

Thanks,
Dave
