That is quite a resume! I am rescinding your “noob” badge though!

That is a real kick in the nuts to see you part out a kiversand. I always wanted one of those.

I don't plan on parting it out, but I do plan on swapping over parts from it to the Vienna Green one - It will be available for sale when I am done, and with any luck it'll be running too! (I just don't know how much effort I will put into clearing all the codes it is popping or remedying any major issues)

If you'd like to take it off my hands before I start swapping parts over to the green one, send me a number. Note - getting a 3rd row into the '04 is a pretty high priority.

Ok. I will contact you. But before I do. Third row seats rattle and annoy the hell out of me. First thing I yank on any truck is the third row seats. Food for thought.

Love the Kinversand, mine is a 2000 and I am searching for a donor. Yours would fit the bill, if I wasn't in Pennsylvania!! Anyway, good luck with the swap over. Lots of good help and advice on here. Here's mine :

Okay - hopefully I am about to make some progress on this thing - I gave up on finding a used/loan Nanocom and pulled the trigger on buying one from Cyprus. Just received shipping notification, so hopefully will be tinkering away by next weekend.

In related news, I went ahead and purchased a replacement battery. Decided to go with an Interstate H8 AGM from Costco, I like Interstate batteries in general, and the Interstates from Costco in particular. The H8 is pretty chunky in there, but I've made a little angle aluminum battery tray that should work great. The other challenge is the Battery Cables - will probably make new ones soon since the terminals are reversed and the ground no longer reaches the battery easily. Expect photo updates relatively soon.
