    Steering stabilizer fitting trouble

    I tried heating the area a bit then prying it out more and still no go today. It's just like a 1/4" too narrow as you go up. I ordered expando pliers they're unfortunately going to take a little while to arrive so the exciting conclusion will have to wait!

    Steering stabilizer fitting trouble

    It's OEM from rock auto. The space right now between is a 1 1/8 and the stabilizer end is 1 3/8. I'm gonna try prying it open a bit more with a fat strong flat head screw driver and crow bar higher up in there tomorrow and see if I can get that 1/4 "

    Steering stabilizer fitting trouble

    Well! I just wanted to quickly fit my stabilizer on today but it proved hard to fit in the spacer on the passenger side. I banged away, used pliers to try to open it a bit, used a jack to see if I could push it through but no go. I'm thinking the metal center is hold me up and it would be nice...

    Exhaust Pipe Vibration

    I installed it, as i drove it a bit after installing it I had to tighten the bolts down a couple of times because it would slip and slightly be angled. It hasn't moved which I have liked. I'm pretty sure i slipped it on all the way to the Y pipe of the exhaust. There's not a ton of play on...

    Exhaust Pipe Vibration

    Hey everyone! A month or two ago I installed the pypes high cat back exhaust. Definitely loving it except one thing. When I am at low speeds such as backing out of the driveway I believe the tail end is rattling on the frame. Not the biggest deal in the world as when I drive on the road it...

    P0305 P0205 problems solved! (hopefully)

    Ok I think I know where it is now. Right on the coil pack on the side. Now when I unplug that and crank over the car with a noid light in the plug for the #5 I should be able to get to see if it lights up without starting the car with the manifold off. Because I feel like I wouldn't want to do...
