03 Dakota Sterio Question

From : cobrakhan

Q: okay - i realize sterio should be stereo thats pretty funny. i have an 03 dakota with the factory six disk changer. does the factory unit have an auxiliary input i had xm radio in the past but got rid of it because of fm station interference from time to time. i want to get another unit sirius this time but i want a direct connect so i dont have to worry about the fm stations. is there an auxiliary or another option for satellite radio without fm modulation or swapping out the factory unit .

i have resurfaced rotors and can agree that every rotor is stamped with the min spec. rust sometimes makes them tough to read or convert mm to in. but there are book specs to go by also. selling brakes needs to be a system thing. dont just slap pads on and expect new brakes. to get back close to original performance rotors must be trued and calipers lubed bushings and anti rattle springs replaced fluid flushed to get the system up to par. think about it how long do springs bushings and fluid stay good at high rotor temps over 40k miles people spend 50 bucks for pads 100 bucks or more for labor and pass on the 5 dollar bushings or springs and 5-10 dollar rotor turning. you get less than what you paid for when you short cut a few cheap items. if rotors are in need of replacement spend a bit more and get the drilled vented models for better than new performance and longer life with no warping. hi all! been wondering lately about replacement of the front rotors on my 99 ctd 2500 rwd. is there a measurement or rule of thumb used by brake shops on when the rotors need to be replaced or is it strictly appearance out of true criteria thats used also how many times can the rotors be resurfaced tia best to all fred .
