some new bullitts. still need to paint the 40th hood.

after fighting with these stupid things for 2 hours got them where I want them.

She pulled them when it was off which is one of the issues. The other is how delayed the gas gauge and RPMs are. We looked at all posts regarding 04+ needles in 97-03. I think she's just gonna have to keep messing with them.

Took me some time to get the dials where they should be. Always a good time cruising on the freeway trying to watch the GPS and install the speedo needle. LOL

Speedometer was the biggest PITA for me, took an hour or 2 of driving up and down the same damn road, lol.

Yep. one of only 2 roads that actually stay straight for about 1\2-3\4 miles in my area. Stupid Missouri roads. Can be fun to drive in the car though lol.

That's odd cause it was decently easy for her. She drove down the road going 60 mph according to her HUD and she put the needle in at 60. Well it went to 65 so it was 5 mph off. She pulled it off and tried again. Same thing. She figured since it kept jumping 5 mph ahead, she'd put it at 55 mph while going 60 and it matched her HUD.

The cooling temp gauge is actually dead on accurate unlike her orginal needle.

The gas gauge fluctuates which sucks. Gotta figure it out.

Her RPMs were set right according to torque pro. Later on the RPM needle would lag then catch up. Now it's just way off. IDK lol

the speedo literally took 3 tries. I switched needles around but ended up trimming the long needles for the tach and speedo to get it to look half way decent.
 
Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

every time i went from reverse to drive i would hear this very loud clunk noise and whole car would rock like it should never do. and the last year i have been trying to figure it out well figure it out its the rubber mounts on the A arms moving and the A arm clunking around well 2 years hard starts and going from reverse to drive and flooring it finally did its toll and when we backed out of the drive way and and put it in drive it finally snapped my girl was driving when it happened. so got c/v shaft warrantied told them it was clicking really bad and they said owe here you go no questions asked and warrantied it. i have two A arms from a salvage yard coming to me tomorrow $35 a piece and $20 ups shipped. im going put those on for now and save money for new ones so this wont happen again. When i called about a new one they where asking if its 20mm or 24mm what are they talking about and which one do i need?
 
Re: What did you do to your Car today? Vol 2.0

You paid almost as much for used a arms as you can get new Dormans for

EDIT: RockAuto has the right one for 41.89 and the left one for 42.79

After a 5% discount code you can get them both for 91.98 shipped. You just paid $90 shipped for salvage yard ones.
