    KVT/Rover Solutions Backpack Rack + D2 Crossbars / Hi-Lift Jack

    Thanks Stu, I'm not sure if the SD brackets would work, they seem to have a channel in them for the bar, whereas the KVT ones are flat. Otherwise they look pretty similar...

    KVT/Rover Solutions Backpack Rack + D2 Crossbars / Hi-Lift Jack

    Putting my KVT backpack rack up for sale. AFAIK it’s a little different from the standard backpack rack with a 4” high basket, aluminum flooring, and the standard Hi-Lift mount. Rack was purchased from original owner in May 2006. It has sat in the back of the garage since Dec 2009. The rack...

    3.9 vs 4.0 V8 reliability? which is better?

    Theyre not, they have the 14CUX system which has its own reader under the passenger seat (which sounds great but the codes can be a bit vague ie; 44/45). there are more differences between 94/95 and 96-99 - If you buy a 94/95 odds are the TC input isn't cross-drilled, which isnt too big a...
