    Bugs

    On a road trip from Arizona to Montana, this happened in 30 miles in the Salmon River canyon in Idaho. Just 30 miles made it nearly impossible to see, and of course it was at night. 1st time ever I had to stop a trip due to bugs. Normally if I had left them to accumulate for the entire 1300 or...

    Spings and shocks

    Has anyone done this Jaguar S-type Spring and shock conversion? It may be common knowledge to many but I am a bit gunshy on this one. I heard somewhere that the H&R spring kit for the 1999-2002 Jaguars Stype will fit, and then (due to the dimensional difference in the spring) the S-type Bilstein...

    Need Shocks, cannont believe what I'm seeing

    Did the search, and after seing the way it lists shocks in threads, I will be the first to admit I don't have hours to spend trying to find this. I have heard Jag shocks can be made to work on the LS. Can someone point me in the right direction? Bilstein makes shocks for the S Jag, are they that...

    LS emblem decal

    I've put fire extinguishers in all my cars and I always put a marque decal on the extinguisher. It's worked pretty well, so far. I have never had so much trouble getting an emblem for a car I owned. I have stacks of them for all my cars, er, well with one exception. Where in the hell...

    New rubber

    Just got new Pirelli Pzero asymmetrico's, I just love the hell out of these tires. Oh, and I thought the rims could use some wax too (though not a lot of fun), it always revitalizes them. They still have it after 60K.....

    Ford V-6 Engines

    What other applications are common to the V-6 in the late model LS's (approx '03+) or is the LS's unique being RWD? Yeah, I have something in mind but don't know this basic relationship between models that share the Ford V-6, so I'm starting with that. Anyone with experience shopping for or...

    Just installed LSE bumper w/Mclaren grill

    So, this is a pretty common ho/hum mod to most on this forum but it's been in work a while for this kid. I just got this back from the body shop yesterday and it turned out FANTASTIC!!! The shop got the color matched better than the factory did on the stock parts and while I knew the bumper...

    Not really a new look but love these tires

    Pirelli Pzero Asymmetrico 255-40/18. I even like them better than the previous two sets of Pirelli Rosso's I had. The car has crisper turn in, better grip and just feels better composed all around and I never expected them to 'look' better on the car as a bonus.....pricey but tires (and lights)...

    Anyone else tried these bulbs?

    I'm really happy with the H-9 Halogens in place of the H-11 low beams as suggested by Daniel Stern Lighting. Along with a really good aux lamp bulb upgrade (only used when no opposing traffic is in view) the low beam performance is wicked. Stock, the car had around 12-1300 lumens, the lows now...

    Speaking of New LS's......

    Another Double DIN Install

    The factory skip-o-matic is gone, I've had this Kenwood DDX-7019 for a while trying to get around to the install and it's finally done. Added the interface module to keep the steering wheel controls as well. The panel as provided by LSKoncepts worked perfectly.......and I appreciate the advice...

    Double DIN ICE upgrade Question

    I ordered the silver-ish dash piece from LS Koncepts and have one of these Kenwoods arriving anyday now.....(the pic is the one I have in my Focus). Any tips on what other problems to expect converting to this? The Focus was a lot of work and I'm hoping the LS won't be as bad. I'm sick of...

    Question on a spotted Bodykit

    Wish I'd been able to get a picture, but didn't get the chance. Silver LS pre 2002 spotted on I-10 in Phoenix area, front bumper looked a lot like the Wings West kit but the fogs were round and right next to the egg crate style grill. Looked better than the rectangular lights, not quite as...

    Wilwood BBK completed

    As noted here earlier I upgraded the front brakes of my '05 LS to 14" 6 pot Wilwoods about 6 months ago and pretty much immediately went to work getting the rears done. Well, they're done, 13" rotors with the Wilwood parking brake caliper. I could have gone with something way more serious for...

    Standard Headlamp Low Beam upgrade

    Anyone wanting an upgrade to low beam output, use the H-9's in place of the H-11's as suggested by certain lighting specialists, these result in a significant increase (H11's have 1200 lumens or so and H-9's have 2100 lumens) in light on low beam and all I had to do was clip off a little guide...

    K&N HP1014 Oil Filter

    Has this just been introduced or was it just an issue to find info on a K&N fitment for the later (03-06) LS V8? I was looking a couple months back and found nothing (could have just been me though.....I'm not particularly patient searching online) but now I find this listed for the usual...

    Who prepared this SEMA LS?

    Probably an old subject, but after reading an article on McLaren Performance Technologies LS proposal, I remembered seeing this LS at SEMA. I didn't own one then so only took the pic and didn't dwell on the cars origin. It wasn't this McLaren outfit's car was it?

    New LS Big Brake Kit

    I will apologize in advance for no road experience opinions because this just made it to my garage onto my car today. The 30 min drive home was perfect, I forsee some pretty fun driving ahead. These are 14" vented, cross drilled, slotted rotors and 6 pot Wilwood calipers on my 2005 LS...

    Silly Question

    SO, I saw a car in the galleries, that listed SVT in his description of his 2006 LS V8. I know about SVT Contours and Focus', and the SVT Mustangs, and of course the.......ahem, truck. But I know nothing about any SVT Lincolns, let alone LS's. Is he just labeling his car or..............?
