    2001 LS V8 Parts for sale!

    Your best bet for the front bumper is to check off the right hand shoulder of the Merritt Parkway southbound in CT, between exits 47 and 46. You might also find some suspension parts, a door handle, and a couple other pieces.

    My free car and a trip to Connecticut!

    You had me totally confused when you called me the first time and said you were in New York.. Because I just assumed you took the shortest route, I-80 across PA into NJ/NY. So when you said you were in New York I figured you were only an hour or so away but then you were talking about I-86 and...

    My free car and a trip to Connecticut!

    The more I think about it, the more I think those must be OEM brake pads. The only brake pads I ever used were either OEM or the Porterfields (MUCH less dust from the Porterfields), and I can't imagine why I would have a set of barely used Porterfields off the car. So that set is probably the...

    My free car and a trip to Connecticut!

    Yes it did. It explained all the features of the car. I don't think I ever watched the whole thing. The car also came with a pair of Waterford crystal flutes with the Lincoln emblem on them. They sell on Ebay for about $50 nowadays. I'm not parting with mine though. A couple years...

    My free car and a trip to Connecticut!

    Well it's pouring rain here again. Looks like you are having a wet trip out here. Hopefully the LS doesn't sink completely into the mud before you get here. :) Meanwhile, since I am a packrat, I am going through all my old stuff and finding a few goodies to throw in. How about the...

    bullet proof glass

    I wonder what kind of glass it was. At 1 3/4" I'm guessing it was a polymer. The more exciting bullet resistant glasses are things like spinel and ALON. These are both slight variations of sapphire (Al2O3), because nobody has figured out how to make a large sapphire window. One of the...

    Best way to scrap the car

    It's funny you should mention it. The girl is my former roommate, since moved to Cali, back here visiting friends and family for a few weeks. She works as a stripper. She always paid her share of the rent in a wad of $20's. So I have some ideas how she could work it off. I don't think...

    Best way to scrap the car

    Well it's been a long time since I've read these forums. About a year ago I bought an Infiniti M45 sport. I kept my '01 LS V8 sport but it has seen very limited duty in that time. An old friend came to visit for a week, and I let her use the LS while she was in town. She must have fallen...

    Caliper bracket bolt size?

    Thanks for the advice. I think I will do the hubs and tie rod ends too. I have a "lifetime alignment" deal from a national chain, I will just take it to them after I replace them and see how good they are.

    Caliper bracket bolt size?

    Hi, I want to change my rotors but I don't know what size the two bolts that hold the caliper bracket on are. I don't mean the 2 12mm bolts that attach the caliper to the bracket, I mean the 2 bolts that attach the bracket to the knuckle(?). One is exposed and I'm guessing is 15mm (I don't...
