    rear caliper problems

    i just hit the piston a few times with a hammer to start the retracting process. They were turning but must have been stuck and not wanting to retract and hitting them must have knocked them loose to start going back in when I started turning them again. I got the brakes bleed for some reason...

    rear caliper problems

    i got them, used a hammer and hit the piston a few times must have loosened them up. Im trying to bleed the brakes but doing the standard push the pedal down and open the bleeder doesn't seem to be doing much. Do I have to do something different with this car?

    rear caliper problems

    I ordered some moog bolts from rock auto. I guess I will throw them in when they get here. The car isn't lowered or anything and I know the body is slotted for the bolts to move so I wasn't sure why I would of needed them.

    anyone get a front end alignment without cam bolts

    I just replaced all my front suspension and took my lower control arms off but reused them as they were fine. When I took it to get aligned they said they couldn't do it because I didn't have eccentric bolts for the LCA's. I just put the stock bolts back in. The body is slotted though I would...

    front suspension questions

    are these cam bolts you talk about needed to get an alignment? I went to the ford dealer to get it aligned and they said they could not do it because I did not have eccentric bolts for the lower control arms. The body is slotted for the bolts though so I'm not sure why they would need different...

    Code white front shocks on closeout. $12 each.

    So do your struts only have maybe half inch of the rod showing above the bump stop before the threads? It doesn't seem like these struts have much travel to them. Does anyone cut the bump stop off? I can see how short the spring has to be to fit on it so it must be under a lot of tension like...

    Code white front shocks on closeout. $12 each.

    i ordered some and got them today. looks like a stock shock but there was no band holding the strut rod down and it looks like with the bump stop on it the strut only travels about an inch or two before it stops on the bump stop. Is that how short the travel is on these or did I get some that...
