    Towing a Samurai

    You may be right as the book says it is set at the factory.  Either way, I am sure the alignement shop will know.

    Ft Wilderness Campground at Walt Disney World - Orlando FL

    My wife and I just came back from Orlando.  We stayed for six days at the Fort Wilderness Campground at WDW.  We highly recommend the experience.  We had a premium campsite with full hook ups and a level concrete pad.  We stayed in the 900 ring and had access to an excellent dog walking area...

    Towing a Samurai

    I just got back from Walt Disney World and I didn't tow the Samurai for this trip.  The only adjustment for the Samurai front end is toe in.  I did lift it 3 inches to put in a VW diesel engine.  I have purchased a 3 inch drop pitman arm and will be installing it tomorrow.  Once that is...

    Towing a Samurai

    There must not be a lot of experience out there with towing a Samurai, since I received no responses.  I re-read the manual and they only recommend using a locking device when you are towing on a dolly.  There are no adjustments on the front end other than toe in and it is on the money. I am...

    Rear View camera installation

    I completed the camera and monitor installation and it works great.  For anyone out there looking for a system, here are the components.  They were all purchased at RVCams.com 1. Voyager 5.6 LCD color monitor with audio (AOM562HD).  It has a second input if you want a blind spot camera as...

    Rear View camera installation

    Tim @ RVcams.com was a great help.  I highly recommend them if you are considering a camera system.  I could have saved myself a lot of time if I had just called him first.  Research a lot, buy once.

    Towing a Samurai

    I have an 87 Samurai as a TOAD.  It is a wonderful, small general purpose vehicle. The Samurai owner's manual says to put the T-case in neutral, the transmission in 2nd, unlock the front hubs and "secure the steering wheel with a clamping device designed for towing".  It does say unlock the...

    Rear View camera installation

    Thanks John.  They sent me the drawing with the locations of the wire ends.  This should now be an easy installation.  I will provide an update with pictures when I finish.

    Mystery switch

    Thanks.  The mystery is solved.  I must have been looking at the diagram for the wrong model number before.  I'll have be more careful next time.

    Rear View camera installation

    The wiring installation - chassis (dwg. 140023) shows a circuit 74J rearview monitor system.  It also shows a three pin connector in the front area.  I am not sure where this connector is yet - maybe behind the overhead light. It does not show where the other end is at the back of the vehicle. ...

    Rear View camera installation

    I have not been able to find one so far.  I will review the wiring diagrams again.  There was an option for a satellite dish, with installed internal wiring and a marked spot on the roof.  Since it does not have a rear window, I am surprised so far that a camera was not an option.  None is...

    Rear View camera installation

    I will be installing a rear view camera on our Itasca IF430V so that we can monitor the Toad (Suzuki Samurai) and back up more safely.  This RV uses the E-350 Ford chassis.  Has anyone installed one of these already.  I was wondering what entry point was used for the cable.  I don't want to...

    Mystery switch

    Thanks for all the feedback on the switch.  The model is an IF430V.  There is a switch for the footlights (courtesy lights at the top of the entrance stairs and at the base of the shower stall) located in the bedroom.  We will check to see the switch controls them also. I have been reading a...

    Mystery switch

    My wife and I bought a used 2002 Itasca Sundancer this summer and we have enjoyed the heck out of it already.  I have the downloaded all the manuals and diagrams from the Itasca website for reference but I have not been able to answer this question so far. There is a two position switch in the...
