    Cheap way to replace trunk mat?

    Does anyone know where I can buy some carpeting to replace the trunk mat, mine has a tear in it. I know that I can buy vinyl to put down, but I want it to look original. The kit at 5.0resto is just too expensive for what it is, and everywhere else is like 60-70 bucks. I was thinking about going...

    Front end Knocking sound

    My car was making those knocking/popping sounds too. I had already replaced the tie rods when I did the new rack, so I knew it wasn't that. Then I replaced the wheel bearings, which helped a little, but the knock was still there. I just replaced the control arms with the 03-04 Cobra upgrade and...

    what do you think of these...

    I would not buy dimpled rotors again, I have them and they make a lot of noise when stopping, ask anyone with dimpled (not drilled) rotors. But they havent caused my pads to wear prematurely.

    New bolts with front control arms?

    I am about to replace my front control arms with the 03-04 Cobra kit. Do I need to replace, or can I re-use my stock bolts? I am also buying new spring isolators and tie rod boots, can you guys think of anything else to do while I'm down there?

    Using touch-up paint..

    OUCH, thats gotta be sanded off first, and do you mean you got the tube of touch up paint with the brush? That area might be a little too wide to brush-touch.

    Need 250ftlbs, wrench goes up to 150ftlbs. ????

    No I have not done it yet, I ordered the parts today so they'll be here by the end of the week. I plan to get a loaner tool to do the install as well. It would be nice to have the extra funds to buy the proper torque wrench but its just not in the budget right now. Thanks for all of the...

    Need 250ftlbs, wrench goes up to 150ftlbs. ????

    Ok, I talked to Randy S. and got the info about the nut, it basically breaks the cage when you take it off, and the new one gets put on with the cage. I would be interested in torqueing the new one down to 150ftlbs, and then moving the setting up to 250ftlbs and seeing how many more turns, or...

    Need 250ftlbs, wrench goes up to 150ftlbs. ????

    When you torque down the nut, do you do it with the cage thing on? or do you put that on after its torqued down? I'm talking about the nut cover, thats the best way I can describe it. Do you take it off as one piece as well?

    Need 250ftlbs, wrench goes up to 150ftlbs. ????

    I am going to install new wheel bearings and hubs and I have a question. The directions say to torque them down to 250ftlbs. but my torque wrench only goes to 150. Is there some way that this will still work, like torque it down to 150 and an extra 1/4 turn??? Does anyone know of a store that...

    How To: Change Your Cluster to Blue L.E.D.s/Incandescent bulbs for $8

    No I dont remember that thread. The tri leds looked pretty good in blue in the video posted, and I would assume that red ones would look good too, its really just your personal taste. I would like to see someone try it with white lights too, just too see if it looked really bright and clean...
