Ok that type material is very brittle and does not have any uv protection so you will need to add a suitable uv coating such as ceracoat. I applaud your efforts and feel this would be an option for a broken or missing lens. Id like to see you show one installed compared to a factory light. On...
You need to check because most plastics that can be shaped do not have any uv protection. It looks like you gave made them different than the factory. You might want to make video installing them. I sort of see what you tried to do but most people will be lost on installing them
Im trying to get...
Hey i was talking with danny at luxury auto and mentioned this. He said he was not sure right off the top of his head but thought at rest level they were supposed to read 2.5 he said he does not remember useing the tech two to set them but just does a battery hard reset. Thats disconnecting the...
Thanks fir the information. Now if we can find a way to see if the shocks are actually responding to the voltage change. yours seems to be close to the middle of the range i would have thought a wider range but you said you are only moving it a bit. If any movement down lowers the voltage i...
Checking the ohms i do no believe confirms its working. Also check to see if its grounded to the housing. I saw a toyota unit video where neg volts was applied plus positve , i think 5 max in that case the rack was in a jig with springs pushing on the tie rod towards the rack.the torque to turn...
Id bet that no rebuilder that sells them for 400-600$ does anything but clean them up and put seals and boots. The one problem i see is that most list one rack for all cars. The 07-08 are not tge same as 04-06/07 middle year change. The gm part numbers so upgrades but that those two numbers do...
If you have a link let us know. Ive not seen that video also ifanyone is working on this i tead the tech two has three settings on tge steering. Factory,firmer and less firm. Ive yet to look into this but input would be welcome
My best friend is working on a 56 Continental and needs me to come help him. Hes been thru 3-4 pot belly carbs and still cannot get it running.looking at prices and parts thats a tougher car to maintain than the xlr. The v is the one to have . enjoy and drive it
Check out the video of the wizard. He is a you tube mechanic. 50% of his drama is total crap. He makes his money off you tube so he has to come up with content. No profesdional mechanic gives him any respect.he bought aa xlr his dream car and wants to gives it a bullit proof engine. Well he...
I dont use anyone in particular. There are some good tire visualization sites so you can add diffetent sizes and see where they grow and compare with whats on the car. Its going to depend on the offset xlr is unique. I run some bmw wheels on mine from time to time.
Look you need to do research on your own. Gm updated the engines for the xlr and sts. the engine was redesigned internalky fir the xlr. Parts do not interchange with the earlier northstar. They do not have a head gasket problem. That was in the northstars from the 90's. If some one is telling...
Engines are super cheap 1000-1500 will get you a good low mileage one.theres 50 for sale Find a decent regular repair shop and they can swap out. You dont want to go trying to fix yours. Id say the block is fine. You would need to replace the bolts which have to be replaced anytime the head is...
Sounds good. Yeah the removal of the center cap was ok when you could get delco parts as the cap could be removed and a little sealer put on it to replace. i believe based on what you said you should be good to go.
If you are talking about the cup in the center. It spins .you can carefully pull it out and make sure it snaps back in.You also only have 1/2 the accuator removed. Put the screws back in and peel off that last cover. They you will need to clean the head very good before putting on sealant.
Good job. I do suggest you support the drivers side of the radiator. Without support all tgat is holding it up is pressure from twisting the two solid ac lines. They can crack . the cost to replace and recharge the ac will be more than a few minutes insurance to support it.
Did this one come...
Loosen the bolts but leave them in when you try to break it loose from the head. Gm used some really strong stuff. If you pry it loose without the bolts in you can break the vvt valve. It will snap right off. Now if you want to do it correctly .get you some long bolts the same size as the little...
