Seam is 90* from lateral pin holes. Will get holes for bolts to frame and holes for bolt head acsess. Which side get which? Welded seam to frame, smaller holes, clamped to frame OR Access holes in welded side, smaller holes in formed side, bolts in there to clamp to frame. Will way is stronger...

I have been trying to keep up with Hyundais a bit, for the wife's car (which she loves). It is a 2014 Elantra Coupe, so there is much confusions in catalogs, etc. It got an engine upgrade as base (over the 2013 Elantra Coupe) to 173 HP version. (GS level seems about right, though actually not.)...

I've been seeing some things... A fairly late model, Subaru SUV type, I believe with a 'sticker' on the left, lower rear. Looks like 4 and 3 icons, with a X in slot 2 - so []X[][][] [][][] or so. I guess they are terrains? I've the same car many times, or different cars... What am I seeing...

As above, anyone got any highway mileage to report? I'm trying to justify an order, IF!

Around 100k got intermittent oil pressure lights. Soaked and cleaned pickup through drain hole - went away for awhile. Now at 150K, opened up, new plate gasket, and now into bearings. Pickup was 6/7s blocked with 'crystal'-y debris, and some (5 sq in) on block near pickup - but not a sludged up...

Ok, I found a manual that said how to PG a main in frame. (.010 shin under adjacent, lower shells - to over come gravity effect.) Anyone have tips on doing rods in frames? (I'm concerned PG will smash before piston is pulled down.) Also, I understand that when fitting odd (maybe 1/2) sizes to...

(mount to hub structure) kickin' my butt. 2016 Challenger base brakes, first time off. The rears were a smaller bolt, not as bad, but showed hot-melt looking substance on threads. I still don't have a front out - literally 200 lbs all of each 1/5 of a turn - wears me out. Normal? Should I...

As above. I cut a - oh - 82 S10 fame up long ago for a trailer. I was cleaning up the yard and found the bits from the front frame. In the area, probably from the truck, I found some very dense 1 1/2 thick plastic that looks like a slab of slate, but black. Anyone seen anything similar, know...

Well, I read a bunch of posts about body on frame 2021 Durangos, and went to look. No frames! Still unibody. Which has been one of my criteria for next play/WORK vehicle. I'm liable to tow 3500 and 7000 lbs, say once a month, up to 100 miles and go bouncing in the mountains or beach. Is my...

Thought I did my homework - Amazon Wix cheaper today than Napa, ordered and on the the porch. Mann relabeled, and added a note, and said production hangups, same application.... I thought I was buying the better valve material. Work day truck, doesn't run often.... So this one has white...

Prepping for fluid flush, lines, pads for a 16 Challenger base. I see a lot traffic about ABS flush procedure. So I have a couple of questions! 1st - Why raise rear of car? (This car has a far front mounted pump/valve assembly, and I suspect 'raise rear' is really a way to lower front assembly...

Dug through both cars' records (both still in warranty) and found both needed oil changes by time, rather than miles as had always been the case. Hyundai only offset by 200 mis, but Challenger very early. Freezing here today, couldn't have been better!

OK, ALCOA is offering my married wife a pre-retirement pension buyout. (Apparently the people 'explaining' things did not even see the forms sent out!) A QPSA (apparently a monthly reduction) is listed before the various monthly selections, including no survivor, 75, and 50% - as though it...

I have some late cars - 14 Elantra and 16 Challenger - and see NWB on the Challenger blade frames. The insert/refiill sure looks like the ones on the Elantra, just different length and width. They are made so the retaining 'catch' is a rubber wedge in the frame hook channel, pulled past the...
