Re: strobe light bar

Keep your documentation with you to prove you just purchased the vehicle. As long as you're not using the lights, and otherwise driving like a sane person, I'd expect no issues, unless you run across a Barney Fife-type who has to, um, boost his metrics. Most light bars clamp to the roof with two bol...

Re: P0523

Heh, I've done that, too!! You have to LOVE the newer FSMs! One volume to look up the DTC, then another volume to find out how to R&R the part. But wait, there's more!! Another volume to find out how to take the other thing apart to get to the part you need to R&R. That, though, requires you...

Re: Where is everyone?

I check-in here every couple of days or so. FB is the bane of my existance. FB isn't here to provide me with information. It doesn't make finding information easy. It doesn't make searching for parts on Marketplace easy. It ignores keyword searches and radius searches while adding paid ads. To put ...

Re: ABS Help

IIRC, there's a ground on the back of one of the heads that frequently get missed, especially when installing headers. It very well could be a ground, like you're saying. When replacing the wheel bearings, depending on how 'nicely' they treated the wiring, they could have strained the wiring to the ...

Heh, usually Firestone guys tell you they can't do an alignment until they replace all the balljoints and tie rod ends!! You got off lucky, IMHO! :D

Re: New member

Welcome! Fun project! So the blue car is the donor car? Interesting that they tore the interior apart to remove up fitter equipment, but left the rear antenna on it.
