    Whats the widest tire size I can run in back with rolled lip on stock rims?

    Hmmm, Iv been leaning on flat blacking my Mark along with a 3" cowl hood and black rims. If I do go that route then Im gonna need 315's in the back. Im gonna call Cragar this week about their black 17" steel rims and see if they have our bolt pattern with the perfect offset for a 315 tire. Any...

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    Im gonna make a list of tests I can perform on the trans to try and figure out what the issue is, then this weekend I'l test everything I can before I go looking for another trans. Anybody have any tips or tricks for diagnosing a trans issue?

    Whats the widest tire size I can run in back with rolled lip on stock rims?

    Oh nice, 315's looks mean. Right now Im debating on running my factory 20 spoke rims but spraying them gloss black with a fatter tire in the rear, but if the reward is worth the money I wouldn't mind finding the perfect offset aftermarket rims for the back and running 315 street tires. This is a...

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    Filter was not replaced, fluid is good and at proper level, but haven't tried changing the filter. Do filters just go like that? Causing the trans to whine and very little movement if any at all when in gear? Maybe the freezing temps had some sort of effect on it?

    Whats the widest tire size I can run in back with rolled lip on stock rims?

    I read that people have ran 255/50r16 tires in back on stock rims without rolled lip, some rubbed, some didn't, it depends on the brand tire from what I read. I also read some people are running 275's in the back on aftermarket wheels with rolled lip, some rubbed, some didn't. I am having...

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    I'l look for a 98 if this trans is shot but if this trans is fixable without tearing the whole thing apart I'l try and save it to save the money. Like I said the trans was perfectly fine before this, Id rather not spend the money on another trans if I can just fix this one with a few bucks.

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    Finished messing with some things on her today 'not trans related'. Started her up to let her run a little bit and put her into drive for ****s and giggles and she started to creep forward a little bit, same in reverse, then tried drive again and nothing much unless you gave her a little extra...

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    I already read your thread Gim. There was no detailed info about whether a bad pump fries the entire trans or not. To one person the trans is shot because they cant pull it themselves, to another person it may be an easy fix because pulling the trans isn't a big deal to them ya know. Like...

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    Thanks for the vids. I watched a vid on how to remove the pump but now I gotta figure out if a faulty pump fried the rest of the trans or not. I know the trans was good before this issue. If this trans is fixable without completely tearing her down Im pulling it outta the car this weekend and...

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    Fluid is fine and at proper level. From my research I was thinking bad trans pump too. Is the trans pump something I can replace myself without ripping apart the whole trans? And once I get the old trans pump out of the car is there a way to test it to verify the pump itself is bad? If the trans...

    trans issue - was fine, then whining noise, next day slipping, now nothing

    I know this is one of those things you gotta see and hear in person but I figured Id throw it on here and see if anybody else had this issue. Its a 93 Mark VIII with 106k mileage. I bought the car from my best friend for a good price after the trans started acting up. At first I figured Id do a...
