Anyone wanna give me some rep points for starting this? lol - I wish my rep was higher than it is... I don't know how its not honestly! I guess I'm asking more questions than I am giving out tech. Anyway, rear mounts are basic metal shells. There isn't much that could go wrong with them aside from a stripped mounting stud or damaged metal from a car accident. The rear mounts are completely differently built (just basic static...

Eh well it looks like I'm not getting new wheels afterall... insurance is only giving me $235 to fix the curb rash & re-pinstripe my current wheels. Lame. But thanks for all the help!

I just finished the job which was hellish..but it is doable vs. buying a whole new LCA...heres a great collection of how to get the job done in a few hours: 1. Ball joint you need is for a 1995-98 Hyundai Sonata. Moog K9855 or TRW 104-244 or NAPA ATM 1013408. 2. Tools, c clamp or ball joint press, 15mm socket or pressing out, ball joint separator or pickle fork, small and large screw driver...

I'm replacing the drivers side front axle on my TT. When I went to mark the camber bolt on the strut I noticed that it was no where near any of the factory marks on the bolt. it's actually completely on the other side of the washer from the original marks. Is this normal or did it move somehow, or perhaps was installed wrong by previous owner? I've never had one be outside of the marks before. ...

So we have the complete rear suspension removed from the car and all taken apart. My dad has been looking around for new ball joints for the upper and lower control arms...can't find any. Looks like the only thing available is new control arms from mitsu.......anybody ever find new ball joints or are we stuck? thanks

I drive a 93 3000gt Vr4. Can anyone explain the difference between the brakes before 5/93 and after 6/93 because it says that mits upgraded the brakes to 2/4 piston calipers but my 2/93 Vr4 already has 2/4 pistons calipers. Also any idea on front Performance rotors. Im tryin to find a front pair below 170 because im also gonna buy some new brake lines from 3sx (I cant afford no 2000$$ brake kit ...

Question 1: Given that diagram it says to line up the holes between the two strut spring seats. Well what happens if you don't have them lined up exactly right? Say 1/3" to 1/2" inch off? I don't wanna leave it this way if its gonna cause something stupid like excessive tire wear or something. Does anyone know the answer for sure? It sure has been a f'in bitch to reassemble ...

You should be able to spin the bearing. It'll have resistance, but you should be able to turn it with 1 finger. If it does not turn, it's frozen and has to be replaced.

Can you run 18x9.5 with 255/40/18's in the front or do you need to use a smaller width wheel?

I'm looking at some 19x10 wheels and want to run it by everyone in regards to fitment. I used the offset calculator with the stock 8.5 width wheel with 46 offset and the 10 width wheel with 35 offset. Inner clearance is 8 mm less and the outer position is 30 mm more. Would the inner clearance drop cause rubbing or is that enough room?

Whats the easiest way to strip off the powder coating from my wheels?? Right now i'm using some sort of aero-craft paint stripper and basically globbing it on and then covering it with syran-wrap (sp) and letting it be absorbed into the powdercoating, this is causing it to become "mushy" after 15-20min then i am able to scrap it off. Only problem is it takes multiple coats and i've realized this...

I've recently cracked one of these wheels. So I need to find out what kind they are to possibly buy another one and sell as a set. I know they are American Racing wheels, but I don't know type. I've taken it to a dealer of American Racing and they said the have no idea being that they are now discontinued. Wheels are in sig.
