    Brake pad removal problem

    so, when pulling off the old pads on the front axle, do I need to remove those clips that look to be holding the pads in the caliper? and if so, HOW? it's been 3 years since I've done this and I seem to be retarded.

    2002 Red L w/60,800 miles $17,500 in SoCal

    I am posting this for a friend. The truck is completely bone stock and has been serviced every 3k miles with all records. It is red with a bed liner. I will get photos for those interested. It has not been listed anywhere yet so if you are interested, let me know. The owner owes 17.5k and so she...

    Stolen Cats!

    This is a first for me. My brother in-law just called me and told me this. He gets off work, gets in his Toyota 4 Runner and starts it up, BRABRABRABRABRABRABRA (like my sound effects?). He gets out and looks under the 4 Runner to find that someone had cut out and stolen his cats! WTF?

    She's not running right, please check in.

    I get this miss or studder when under boost or hard excel, usually in second gear just after it's shifted and is pulling it's hardest, kind of like it's hitting a rev limiter. And if I back out of it or were to just roll into it, I don't have it. I am about due for a fuel filter. The plugs...

    Termi vs MB C63 or Caddy 09CTSV anyone?

    Just as it says, has anyone ran a pullied Termi against either of these cars? I'd really like to know how they fair against what I consider to be the bench mark street brawler.

    Oil question/discussion

    I recently bought an 08 Mercedes C350 for my wife (I got a really good deal). Anyway, they recommend Mobil1 oil and they recomend oil changes every 13,000 miles. My personal opinion on this is that MB is just trying to make the maintenance cost for this vehical look more apealing by saying...

    Speedo pegged

    I was on the freeway at 4:30 am and had an Evo that wanted to play but since it was pretty cool out (55 degrees) and I have read all the stories about 80mph kickdowns and motors going boom (I make at least 14lbs of boost), I didn't take the bait but at one point he was behind me and there was no...

    Well, I almost just posted this in the L forum because it isn't a kill or a death story really, but my wife and I are cruising down coast hwy in my Lightning when I notice a red Corvette making it's way through traffic behind me. As we aproached a red light I was hoping he would make it past the...

    50,000 miles

    We hit the 50,000 mile mark in my 03 L today. Not a big deal I guess. I bought her 3 years ago with 18,000 miles on the clock. I still love to drive her just as much as the first day I drove her home from Arizona. Sort of a milestone and I just wanted to tell someone. You guys are the only...

    Is your L your DD, and how hard do you drive it?

    I'm just curious. I drive my truck every day and although I only live 3 miles from work, I then drive it around a little durring the day. When ever I drive I find that I sort of alternate between cruising around and then some times I'm just romping on the thing. Then I'm pretty much checking to...

    New Tails

    I bought these from SilvieBolt, (great transaction by the way) I have always wanted to do the "free, remove chrome on 03 tails" mod, but wanted to have something on hand in case I screwed em up. But I am digging the way that these look on my Black L. And one from the front just...

    Lightning vrs AC Cobra

    Well, not a kill story and not really a race either but, I was on my way to Home Depot (again) and I see what looks like an AC Cobra up ahead of me and no one else on the road. I pull up to him and turn off my OD as my friend reaches over and turns off my A/C (he's getting the hang of this) so...
