    Tires for 2015 F150

    I have a new 2015 F150 on order. The truck with come with Shityear Wranglers (white letter) on it, which I've already told the dealer must be changed before I will accept the truck. I have Michelin LTXs on my 97 F150 and those have been great. Do you recommend that same tire for 4WD F150 in the...

    quote and advise

    My Saleen needs new fronts. 245/40/18s. It currently has Nitto NT555's on it. I've got NT555 R2's on the back. Would you suggest staying with the NT555s for the front or going with a different Nitto model? Thanks!

    Did some underhood changes on The Bitch

    Just got her back from having some updates done. I had the intake powder-coated, custom-cut plug wires to help tidy-up the wiring mess, pulled out the wiring harness for the MSD that was no longer needed, a new custom over-flow tank :), and some redoing of existing wiring harnesses to make it...

    Cleaning up the engine bay of my 97

    I'm looking for suggestions on anything others have done to clean up the snake den of wires under the hood of my Saleen. I'm on a mission to spruce up the engine compartment, and I'd love to tidy up all the wiring harnesses and what-not to give it a cleaner appearance. This is what it looks like...

    Can you buy individual pieces of the GT500 stripe kit?

    Short story, someone backed into my Shelby and messed up the back bumper. It can be repaired, but will require a repaint. Can I buy the bumper part of the stripe or do you have to buy the entire kit?

    Lowering my GT500

    Yes, the 4x4 look needs to go. I would like to lower it a bit, but NOT slam it. I am very happy with the way the car handles and rides just like it is, I really would hate to ruin it. What's consensus for the best system/kit out there to lower it a inch or so? The car will also being...

    Picked up a used GT500

    I traded my Parnelli for the below yesterday. This is actually a used car, though you could hardly call it that with only 697 miles on it. According to Carfax it was titled new in Virginia last Sept, and then offered for sale at a dealer in Virginia beginning in Dec. After a few rounds on E-bay...

    Spring cleaning Part one

    Got started this past weekend on getting the fleet back in shape. I haven't given any of them a proper cleaning in nearly 6 months due to my rotator cuff repair surgery, so everyone is way past due. First up, was my 97. Thorough top to bottom wash, clay-bared it, and then polish. I'm normally...

    People knowledgeable about rotator cuff injuries: In here please.

    I took a bad fall a few weeks ago and today got the news I had been dreading after Physical Therapy failed to fix the issues. MRI shows I have complete tears of the superspinatus and infraspinatus tendons in my right shoulder, which explains why I can not raise my arm above my shoulders to...

    For any of you Bike Fans......

    I spent about 3.5 hours today wondering around downtown Raleigh at the bike fest put on by Ray Price Harley Davidson. First time I've done this event. Had a great time, TONS of absolutely beautiful bikes. They also had a Corvette show in the new convention center, with a good selection of old...

    How would you handle this situation?

    Curious to know how SVTP would respond to this. Let's say you are waiting on something. Let's say it is automotive related. Let's also say that a lot of other people are waiting on the same thing. And it is taking a while. The business providing this decided to send out a bit of tersely...

    Anyone know what the shelve life of Torco is?

    I found several cans of it I didn't know I had while I was cleaning out this week. I think they are about 5 years old. I don't see any sort of expiration date on them. Is it still safe to use?

    For Zaxjax and any of the other detaling gurus here....

    I had a little boo-boo while I was out riding the Harley today. As I was getting off the bike, I didn't notice that one of my gloves fell off and went straight onto the hot exhaust pipes. Needless to say by the time I did see it, it had melted some of the fabric and leather and welded it onto...

    Some photos from a recently completed CSS project. :-)

    Many of you have no doubt seen my beast hanging around Jason's garage for the last few months, so I thought you might want to see a few pictures of the finished product all cleaned up and show ready. I am looking forward to taking her my local Mustang club's annual show on Saturday...sort of an...

    Parnelli Jones Saleen

    Number 75 of the run of 500 found a home yesterday. In my garage. :) I'm in complete love. Best looking of the S197s IMO, though I know Grabber Orange isn't for everone. (I didn't like it first time I saw the color myself, but it looks great with the black accents). The car drives fantastic, and...
