Hey guys,
Just pulled the Lightning out as I was overseas for 2 years, needs new brakes and tires, it's not a dd and in a couple years will be put through a full makeover, but wanted some decent brakes without breaking the bank.
Tires was thinking the nitto 555??

Hey guys, I know i need to change my lower ball joints when i get home. I am going with Moog ones, any thing else i should go ahead and replace while i am down there? New upper control arms? I hear its easier to replace the whole thing than pressing in a new ball joint. (for the upper that...

Alright guys and gals, I have read about cleaning the whole intercooler and all that jazz since I bought my lightning two years ago. When I bought it at 50k (75k now) I put an oil separator on and have emptied it every time it gets half full since then. She is my DD I never take her to the...
So Saturday my car started a little screeching (Like a belt screech) So I thought I just needed some good old belt dressing, so I applied the dressing late Monday night, wake up Tuesday for a surprise. When I started my truck up it sounded like a 1988 Honda with 200,000 miles on it and it was...
Hey guys, I wanted to ask a few questions before I started this project. Is changing the bearings the same as pretty much every other car. Keep in mind I have only worked on classics but you would just pull the rotor and sleeve and they are right there. Any special trick or tool I will need...
