    For Sale Transgo Shift Kit for 4r70w Brand New In Box $50 plus shipping

    I just bought a 94 Town Car and the owner threw in the Transgo Shift kit for free. I will just do a Jmod instead so I have no use for it. I would like $50 plus shipping, I think that is $40 cheaper from a vendor.

    Loose headlamp assembly

    My passenger side headlamp assembly is loose albeit it is secured by the clips, meaning you can freely lift it up and down with your hand. The adjusters are in but turning them doesn't do anything because of the way they're just loose. What is missing or causing this problem? Thanks for any...

    I ordered a nice x pipe from Ebay for $30 shipped and took it to my usual muffler guy to install it and run true duals. He did a great job for crush bends and he threw in some nice tips that someone threw away that were in his shop. I painted the x pipe with high gloss barbecue black paint to...

    Cold days causing alarm to go off

    Two days ago and then this morning, I'm guessing the temperature was in the 30's, my alarm would just go off for no reason. I'd disarm and rearm and then it would instantly go off again. So I would just keep it unlocked. Does anybody know what would cause this? Door or hood switch needing to...

    How many people left their 1-2 lower spring out?

    Okay, just did a J mod on my car and it shifts much quicker and smoother but just not as firm as I thought it would be. So, I'm wondering how many of you have left the lower 1-2 spring out. Seems half the people say its way too harsh and the other half says its perfect. The 98 J mod...

    What the heck is 5x7/6x8 speakers?

    I'm trying to replace my speakers but some of the boxes list them as 5x7/6x8, how can a speaker be two different sizes? Does it mean the mounting holes are used to mount in both sizes? Just bought some 6x8's and will install them Saturday, haven't had a chance to remove any speakers yet.

    Can we trust the low coolant light?
