Short of moving into your house how much closer do I have to get before you step up and help? ;)
Ask not what motorheadmike can do for you, ask what you can do for motorheadmike!
It's got about a quarter inch before it touches the bump stops. I can jounce the suspension and it moves well enough... shouldn't be too jarring.
Also, I found the noise. It was two large washers under the battery tray. That's going to be an improvement...
Third version of the fender liners. The car decided it hates the plastic, now it can try to eat through steel.
Stabbed in the new polyurethane bump stops and then things snowballed...
That's where four cans got me (both sides). Guess I need a few more, eh? Ah well, it'll look fine...
Under which conditions? Extended idling, low/high speed driving, boost?
True, but there is no sticky white fence painted cage to slow me down.
Also, she's good to go again.
And I think I figured out the noise: there may be a large fender washer rattling around under the battery tray in the...
At least when installing this gauge it didn't fight me.
Freedom, Mobility, Liberty? Found my larynx? Feed me lard?
It's been a while since a car whooped me like this.
And the noise? Undetermined. Got my trunk monkey to bounce up and down in the car and we couldn't replicate it. Even I...
Soooo... I got the car all buttoned back up, backed it out of the shop to let it get up to temp and confirm its functionality... then, it started to fart and misfire, puffing blue smoke and the O2s went dead (3mV constant). Dafuq? I never touched any of that...
After a bunch of noodle...
I was just using WD-40... it probably didn't help with the initial seal. But, key-on prime and pump on continuous seemed to go alright.
Got to move it back on the lift now to check for a suspension noise that also wasn't there last year.
LOL.
Ordered those as very expensive back ups, thanks. But, I am happy to report after much effort I have finally got it all sealed up again with these blue ones that I had "in stock". Definitely a tighter fit.
Even after they were installed it took a lot of tweaking to get it all aligned...
17x9.5s front on 275/40R17s (really want to go down to a 245) and 17x11s rear on 345/40R17 (going down to a 325/45 probably). Both sets of wheels have 5.375" back spacing out of the box. The fronts have special .375" hub centric spacers and a 1/8" shim OEM F-body spacer, the rears are as-is.
Not sure how I missed this post. Thanks for the info and insight. Yes, it is been a long trip down Struggle Street with Satan Elmo holding a lit match telling me to "vaxx" my kids and take them to story time with drag queens along the way... or else.
I found this crappy bit of data on the box...
