    Option 3) It doesn't f'in matter
    I have always seen it done on the same side as the front axle drop. So for cjs with pass. side drop it always seems people put them on the pass. side. But for yjs/tjs with driver drop it always seems people match with that side. Not sure the exact reason except for available room free from the exhaust.

    How much does it cost to install an AUX port in a vehicle? Should i take it somewhere or do it myself?

    call the dealership then. you're looking at 3-5 bills for an aux jack. ask me how i know.

    you have to ask yourself if you need a 6cd changer when you have an ipod jack. Personally, i haven't used my cd player at all since I got my new head unit with the ipod jack

    how did you find out a way to do it? car stereos are brutally simple.

    The quality on those is ****ty at best. sounds like your music is playing through a tube, not to mention you're lucky if you can find a station that doesn't rape your speakers with static..

    Here is what the dealer would install if you went to them. Might be worth it to shell out the extra coin and not have to afro-engineer your stereo system like in that link you posted. These types of systems are super easy to install. Usually they send you the connectors and it's a plug and play type of job. It's a good way to keep your cd changer and still have an aux port.

    Is it possible to run both a propane set up and a regular gas system on a truck? What I am wondering is if I did buy that yota, could i make it to where i drove it with the carb system on the road, and flip to propane while offroad?

    And if it is possible, what would have to be done?

    Yes, it is possible. Not sure if that trucks system is currently set up for it and if not I am not sure what you would need to add. Pretty sure extreme 4x4 had a little sammi buggy many years ago that had this propane/unleaded system.

    Now I am not so sure. This doesn't sound like you can b/c it states you have to remove the stock fuel system. http://www.gotpropane.com/p4.html
    On second thought maybe that sammi was a bio diesel hybrid. Not sure.

    EDIT:
    APPARENTLY I NEED TO READ A LITTLE MORE BEFORE POSTING UP.
    Look further down the page and there is a dual fuel system for the 22r. Check that out and see what components it has, then see what that truck is missing and add it. Done deal.
