Vehicle Build-Up Net - Sept 3, 2009

Post by cruiserlarry » Tue Sep 01, 2009 12:48 am

This week"s net topic is Vehicle Build-Up / Evaluating Priorities.

We will be discussing what types of modifications and equipment you should consider for your vehicle, as well as some ideas for how to determine what areas should be addressed first, and what changes can be spread over time. Since the availablility and choices of equipment vary tremendously with vehicle make, model, and age, I will try to keep the conversation regarding equipment to a more generic level. Additionally, your budget can influence the priorities you might give certain mods, so I'll also try to present rough estimates on what you might expect to put aside to accomplish these upgrades.

Categories I'll try to cover, time permitting, include: Vehicle protection products, suspension upgrades, engine performance upgrades, charging system upgrades, communications options, and accessories such as winches, lights, and navigation.

Modifying your vehicle is a highly personal endeavor as well, and while I'll present my ideas based on my off-road and retail experience, I look forward to hearing the thoughts and ideas from everyone else participating on the OAUSA net this Thursday.

Larry :D
