idk, I just saw the metal clamped to the discs, and then the tape measures onto that. when we did dukies alignment we just kept going back and forth, grant it, that was with the tires/wheels on. this seems much more efficient.

Why not just tape it to the tire?

Fritz, good call on the HU. I didn't realize I'd clicked the wrong one, so I backed up and found the eXcelon unit (KDC-X896). Same hardware; different software, more customization.

Good Evening...Here is the update on the XJ. The radiator needs to be replaced, upper and lower rad hoses,thermostat,and the part that is scary is that they saw some leakage from head gasket,but unable to perform pressure test until everything else is repaired.

I can get rad at autopartswarehouse.com for about $84 with free shipping and I already have one hose, just need another and thermostat which is about $15. I've got 2 gallons of coolant in hatch.............so it's not all bad. it will cost some more $$ and be a pain in the **** to be without a vehicle for another week.

I hope you all have done your best to stay cool in this wonderful Md. humidity

Nice HU....I would love to have Bluetooth....but I just wanted something cheap for now.

Might go with the Cobra 29 LX BT though to get my bluetooth on. $100 on ebay....


Unless Fritz finds his.....lol

Glad I could assist. Any thoughts on speakers, subs, amps etc?
