    does this stance look right?

    I did see that thanks. I think I am going with the Jegs rims and they have 5.5" of bs.

    trying to identify driveline vibration at higher speeds...

    I did a resto-mod on my '90 Bronco last year. it also had a vibration above 60mph, in that case it was caused by a driveshaft out of balance and a completely worn out rear diff, but the real clue there was the whine that would develop at highway speed.

    is anyone running chrome bullet side mirrors?

    my issue is not the mirror glass, its the mechanism that holds the glass in position on the drivers side.

    trying to identify driveline vibration at higher speeds...

    maybe the rear diff also causing vibration? I just looked at its pretty crusty, and has a decent size leak in the seal. I'm going to change the rear diff anyway, might be a full rebuild...

    trying to identify driveline vibration at higher speeds...

    trying to identify driveline vibration at higher speeds...

    so I was really paying attention to the vibration in the car, and I'm a bit stuck.... when I approach 59-60mph on the throttle, my rear louvers start vibrating like crazy.  if I ease off the throttle it stops.  to get the louvres to vibrate seems to require a combination of speed 59mph+ and...

    What did you do to your car today?

    and for today's episode of "Guess what broke and left me stranded?"

    So I now know the capacity of the factory alternator, at least in its current condition...I am running an 800w stereo amp, a USB GPS speedo, and an iPhone charger....that is too much draw for the installed alternator.  I know this because the battery lacked the juice to start the car in the...

    Power for aftermarket stereo

    I left the factory head unit in place and installed an 800w 5 channel amp. I'm running 2 rear 6x9's and a 12 sub. I use the RCA inputs to the amp to plug directly into my iPhone. I intend to install front speakers at some point once I figure out where to put them, and that is when I may...

    I swear I put the power steering fluid in the car, not under the car

    want to clean up my engine compartment but

    I'm concerned I am going to destroy some electrical component.  First, I bought some degreaser spray.  Second, I live in a townhome complex and can't really send a wash of degreaser and dirty water down the courtyard area.  so that means I need to do this at the self-service carwash using the...

    I swear I put the power steering fluid in the car, not under the car

    it was a bit frustrating. i bought paper towels under the car so I could try and isolate where exactly the drips where coming from, and wiped the bottom of the reservoir and only found 30 years of grease. I'll try again today....these dang cars are so low to the ground its hard to get under...

    I swear I put the power steering fluid in the car, not under the car

    I just put in a new steering box, and power steering hoses. the leak could be coming from anywhere. I'll see of the Lucas stuff works, otherwise I'll really have to get into it.

    new fuses, and got some lights, but not everything...

    popped in a fuse for #2 and #3.   #2 gave me courtesy lights in both front kick panels, but no ignition key warning or lights on buzzers, maybe a relay or switch problem...  #3 gave me nothing, but I only had a 2A fuse and it calls for a 4A.  I didn't hear it blow, but I'll get some 4A

    I swear I put the power steering fluid in the car, not under the car

    yeah so, its either a pretty big leak, or my neighbor is playing games with me.  obv its ATF not "power steering fluid" given that its red. I just refilled with Lucas power steering leak fix. we will see if its just a seal, or if I have a loose fitting, etc. it was not obvious to me where the...
