I have installed a new 24 volt starter from Germany and went through the brakes and other systems to insure that theywork perfectly. It has a brand new set of Goodyear Wrangler Kevlar belted off road tires. Plus there is an extra set of All Weather tires to go with it if you prefer something more suited to on-road driving.There is no radio installed but installing one is easy since there is a place for one in the dash and running wiring is so easy. Besides, ho needs a radio when you can hear the music of that Mercedes-Benz 2.4L Diesel engine. There is no A/C either and the steering is manual, ut who needs A/C when you can throwopen the top and let in the fresh air and sunshine of the great out doors on your overland expedition?
