    Need help validating my simple 12v trailer power setup?

    Draw yourself a schematic of your system. It will help with future troubleshooting and may reveal your parasitic load. It will also help you decide where to put your disconnect.

    Tire Deflators - What Do You Use and Why?

    Stauns with custom set points. For a spring loaded valve I consider +/- 2 psi accuracy acceptable.

    Maximum Lift on IFS Vehicle?

    There is no generic answer to this. Each vehicle will have it's own "personality". My '06 Xterra has a 6" lift on IFS, a dropped front diff, and aftermarket upper control arms. As she sits, all the front suspension geometry is "stock", including my CV angles. She's built to go slow and ride...

    Unless you plan on lifting your front, then put it in as a spring over. I converted my SUA to SOA.

    How to keep RF out of my other electronics?

    I've run a separate 60 amp buss for aftermarket accessories (including a 2M/70CM mobile and CB). Other than connecting to the battery and having a ground buss, the chassis electronics are not touched. I haven't had any RF problems, in either direction, ie alternator whine on audio, or radio...

    Just purchased a Yaesu FT-9800R,

    That radio is only set up to transmit on HAM bands. It might receive analog/FM EMS frequencies for monitoring but it won't transmit on them. And if his department is on some kind of digital trunking system, it may not even pick that up.

    Condor Tactical

    Price for Condor versus fit and finish of 5.11 (which we can get both locally), Condor is well worth it. Officers I work with own a decent amount of Condor gear. So far it stands up to the rigours of a nuclear power plant (off n on n off as you cycle in n out of hardened positions, lots of...
