I've sold my Mark after 10 years, and I'm moving on - I now have a '99 F-150 and I'm happy with it. Just want you all to know that I deeply appreciate Joey and Bryan for having this site, where I've made some lifetime friendships. I won't be around much anymore (although most of my time has...

My wife drives a 1993 SC400 and we're getting ready to sell it b/c we need a truck of some kind. So I'm giving it the once over and my friend and I determine that, meh, it wouldn't hurt to replace both LCAs/ball joints. The bushings are getting a little worn etc. Bear in mind that both my...

Anybody ever replace one of these, and know where it is? I'm looking for it but can't find it. I think that's why I smell gasoline when I get in the car.

I have the strutmasters coil conversion on my 93. Recently replaced: Both lower control arms and ball joints New bearing on right side New strut rod bushings where the rod passes through the control arm Had alignment and rotors turned When I back out of a space, and when I...

I replaced the Lower Control Arms as some of you know. I dropped the car off at Pep Boys and they say they can't align the car. I ask them who can, and they say it has to be a custom shop. It sounds like BS and they just don't want to fool with the car, but I don't know what to do now. I...

So my buddy and I determined that the popping and the pulling to the right was a bad bearing. Pulled off the hub on the right side, turned the rotors, bought a new bearing and a ball joint, and...can't get the ball joint out of the LCA. It appears that it's either fused or rusted in there...

I need to get under my car while standing up. Anybody know of one?

The plastic round tabs that fasten the hood and trunk liners to the metal. And where can I get them?

So I've got the car up on the rack and I see that my rear lift points have these teardrop shaped plates under a big hockey puck-shaped bushing and bolted to the frame near the control arm, and one is almost completely rusted away - and I don't dare push in on the other one because I bet it's...

Just installed my IRS Brace this morning that I bought from Saturn5. - Much cheaper than the SCT version - only $89 shipped - Fast, prompt service and shipping - Great product, fit perfectly, didn't need instructions and didn't have any hassles getting it on with just hand tools -...

I've noticed my mileage dropping significantly lately. I cleaned my K&N filter but no change. I'm getting around 15 mpg. Any ideas where I should look first?

So I'm moving up in the world, tired of using caveman tools to work on my car. The compressor means I can yank the wheels off my car and not dread it, but funds are limited as my spouse is laid off. I'm looking at the Harbor Freight Central Pneumatic $99 special with the 2 year warranty. I...

I'm ordering one for my 93. Is there anything in that area that I should replace before putting it on? If I decide to do my exhaust later, will that be in the way? Also, is this a straight bolt/weld using existing holes?

Also, would the IRS brace scrape the ground when I'm going over speed bumps?

They didn't get very far, because luckily my neighbor was watching, and before he could call the police, they saw him and ran. This was at 12:45 am Tuesday night. He's an old guy who sits on his porch at night. He said they had the interior light on. I don't know how they did it, but the...

No, I don't have pics yet - but I will post them when my Toshiba HIR1 9011s come in. I did the headlight relay install today - not bad, took about an hour and probably didn't need to take that long, but I just don't fool around in the engine compartment that much so I'm kinda slow. Really...

The '93 Mark will be on its third tranny of its long life. I'm almost at 174k miles now. Shudder Guard no longer doing the job, the TC has finally bit the dust. I was able to nurse it along for 3 years though. Dropped the car off at the shop Friday to have it replaced and the tranny possibly...

I've been noticing a gas smell whenever I get in my 93. My friend says it's a carbon filter that needs changing. Anybody have any experience with this? Also, anybody have experience changing the brake light bulb?

Today my Mark showed its toughness. Had some black ice on the roads this morning, still have icy roads now. This morning I was heading to work and I had just driven past a school on a major thoroughfare. I accelerated past the blinking signs, and it was so dark I couldn't see any of the...

Ok, guys, it looks like I'm going to be shopping for a new tranny soon for my '93. I've been told to try to get a 2000 or a 2003 Mustang tranny and repin the whatevers. I have no intention of doing this work myself as I have no access to a lift or major tools. I don't even know where to...
