Rub it in why don't ya joe

I had similar issues with my LS years ago. The gauge cluster would spaz out like that from time to time. Turned out to be some frayed wiring on the engine harness.

Any updates here???!

You've been here 5 years, with 5 messages. Good thing Joe doesn't endure the same mental gymnastics in reading comprehension.

I recently had failures with two brand new moog parts immediately after install. From now on I only use Motocraft parts. It's pretty sad too, I used to really like Moog stuff.

I put a full magna exhaust after my cats died. It does sound awesome but I didn't notice any performance gain (prob would need to be tuned). To be honest I remember getting sick of it after a while. Especially on the highway when in D5, and it's constantly kicking down to 4th.

Wow that's pricey!. Were you happy with the results, Joe? For that kinda' money I'd be looking for an entire parts car with good donor seats.

Beautiful car, congrats!

Did you have the joints pressed into your existing spindle? I've heard this can/has caused problems for others.

I'm not sure you can even check the trans fluid on the LS. From what I know it's a totally closed system.

Yup to this. Alignment shop wouldn't even perform the work on my LS without replacing the rear toe links. They wanted $600 to do this work whilst using Moog parts, I told them to go spit and bought motocraft. Easy job as long as you can cut them out yourself!

My lower snapped like a pretzel.

Reading this post took me back in time to 2003 when I basically did the same thing. If your wheel looks like mine did, then you snapped your lower control arm. Not a side of the road kind of fix, but definitely something that can be done in your driveway with the right tools on hand.

agreed, so weird seeing the steering wheel on the right hand side too.
