    1997 F150 "Dad's Truck"

    Sorry to hear that. I try not to blame people right off the bat, but if it's the second time, that's just nuts. Time to start making noise I guess – and to start getting some grease!

    2003 E-150 Build (Family Adventure Van)

    Also, which Wilson booster did you get? Do they really work? My home gets crappy reception, and of course it'd be cool to have better signal out there as well.

    Oh man, that's awesome. I've wanted to build a van for a long time (one day :smiley:). Yours is looking good, looking forward to seeing updates!

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    Oh man thanks, I had no idea! I just looked and it says my radio has a built-in digital S/RF/CAL/SWR meter. I guess dumb luck saved me there. In the next few days I might make another thread in the CB section to ask questions in.

    What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

    This came in today! The rest of the stuff should be here Monday or Tuesday. Got an antenna mount for the passenger side rear (above the taillight), 3ft firestik, 18ft cable, and a HD spring mount. Hopefully I got everything I need. I'm stoked! :grin: I know absolutely nothing about CB, ham...

    Wrecked my baby Update:

    Man, I feel for you. I can't stand messing with that plastic interior stuff. Seems like every time I pop a panel off, there's a new rattle for a few days afterwards. I've gone as deep as replacing the stereo and running a few wires through the firewall for installing switches and whatnot, but...

    Wrecked my baby Update:

    Yeah, I guess it just depends on the price of the warranty. Most fixes for XJs are not expensive (cheap parts and they're relatively easy to work on), but of course there are exceptions. The most expensive fix I've had done (and one of the few repairs I didn't attempt myself) was replacing the...

    Nice! Starting from stock is better for sure. Don't wanna deal with the PO's bad/uninformed decisions re steering, suspension, etc. Only thing about the 2001 (and 2000) is the 0331 head problem, but if you take care of it, I think that's not a big deal. Mine's a 99. If you have questions, let...
