    yeah that looks awesome :) but doubles my budget for the entire trip! Isn;t there an LOD member who runs a Limo service in Miami? That would be perfect LOL

    I think I'm going to sell it

    I'm not a very good mechanic, and it is cold as H E double-hockey-sticks out there! So I like the idea of parting it out, I just don't know if I am up to it. Maybe someone who IS up to it, would want to buy it... (The tune is not just 94 specific but also to the particular EEC code.)

    I think I'm going to sell it

    My 94 is starting to be more maintenance than I can keep up with, at 224k it is showing its age. So, I do have a very nice 94 (yes I have 2 94s) with only 80k; and a cash windfall leaving me a nice budget for a new ride (topic for another thread). I don't think I'm going to be able to get...

    WTB: 95 Mark VIII-Gen 1 grille and moldiing needed

    Same Story! Thanksgiving day, hit a deer in the middle of town in broad daylight. Yes it is fair to ask why I didn't see it, but a better question is what the heck was it doing there in the first place LOL!! So, I need a Gen 1 front grill :( thanks!

    control arm strut rod nut

    That thread has been my bible for 2 LCA jobs now, so thanks for that! But the only measurement in there tells me how much to cut off, not what the final length of the sleeve is. I'm still not 100% sure because I haven't installed it yet, but when I place the sleeve on the bar it looks like...

    control arm strut rod nut

    I was able to check the length against what's left of the old one - good news is, the sleeves being sold with the blue Moog kits is now the correct length. Or, I suppose it is possible this car had the wrong ones on it all this time but I don't think so... the new one fits the bar just right...

    control arm strut rod nut

    my original is destroyed, if I slip the busings over the sleeve it is just long enough, no overhang. So I am guessing it needs to be shorter to account for compression?

    control arm strut rod nut

    Looking at the replacement part, there i sno threading. Turns out the LCA I am removing DOES thread this bolt, so after beating on it for a few hours I easily ratcheted it out. what a nice surprise that was. the part is OFF the new one goes on tonight What is the proper length of the...

    control arm strut rod nut

    OK, everything is going well until... I can't get teh k-member bolt out! The nut is off, and the eccentric, but I can't press that bolt out of the hole. It rotates, slides etc but not in the direction I need it. Some trick to this?

    control arm strut rod nut

    True, that was crucial. Ended up with a pipe wrench on that with the end breaced on a jackstand. I bought an Ace hardware Lifetime Warranty 5" extension and was then able to get my 5' bar over that. Funny thing was, I was waiting for it to go "CRACK" and come loose, but it just starts to...

    ideals at 1800, code 121

    Suddenly my 94 started to idle at crazy high rpms. I drove home from work, all was good. Couple hours later, it is idling at 3000. Today tried again and its around 1800-2000. It reads code 121 "closed throttle voltage higher or lower than expected" Is it jumping to conculsions to just...

    control arm strut rod nut

    Son of a b$#@ch that thing is stuck! I've got a jack under the end of my pipe wrench. I've got a 2' wrench I can get on the nut and no amount of pulling on that has been successful. I put a shorter socket wrench on it and was able to get my 5' bar on the end of that and destroyed it - twisted...

    control arm strut rod nut

    so, use the crescent wrench to turn the rod the oppostie direction, or maybe put a floor jack on it... if that doesn't work I'm calling a guy form work who has an impact gun! thanks guys! Now on to my other Mark, it's throwing a 121 and idling at 2k-3k :/ but that's another thread
