Depends, it was starting no matter what after sitting for maybe 15-20 mins. Sometimes starting normally no matter what. Starter went out replaced that, soon after stopped starting but occasionally does. When it starts it runs fine, normal, no issues, no codes. I don't think replacing starter has...

Had my 3.7 a few years. It has issues before where after driving I would shut it off go in the store and it would take a long time to get the engine to fire. But if I left it sit say 1/2 hour it would start right up. Then it would start normally no matter what for a stretch. Then another spell...

You want it louder? I hope you're not taking about those little tuner cars loud. Can't believe people actually pay money to make their cars sound like ****. I think mine has a issue with the exhaust haven't really checked, hasn't bothered me yet but it seems a little louder than I think it would...

I have 2 OME 927 front springs for 2 1/2 inch lift for $125. Hoping for someone local Minneapolis/St Paul Mn. Not sure that shipping cost would make the deal any better than buying online with free shipping.

My mechanic installed shocks and springs all around.

I just looked up and bought the 5100's from the search results. My mechanic, postal socks and springs all around, didn't mention needing to get more parts or do anything in particular. I am pretty sure it was just remove and replace.

I took (mudds?) Advice here and used the OME springs and I used bilstein shocks. If you go shis route for 2 1/2 make sure not to get bilstein 5100's up front like I did. Had to use the old springs with those adjustable Shocks. I'm still going to get the right shock and have the OME springs that...

Thanks guys, very good tips.

I have some issues on my 06 limited. Scanner gives transmission control low voltage code, engine light comes on then driving for a while during a good rain it goes out comes back on after a few days. Some weird vibration comes and goes, sometimes, along with that. I bought a used PCM from a...

The 5100 front shocks has a big snap ring that goes in one of several grooves on the OD of the shock. The bottom seat for the spring is higher up on the shock.. So where you locate the snap ring adjususts the height.

I just checked. Looks like there's more than three settings. Looks like there's 3 grooves lower that could have given less than 2 1/2 . Makes me think it may be on the highest, most lift, setting.

I got 2 1/2 up front which worked perfectly with the OME springs and Bilsteins on the rear. 2 1/2 all the way around. The 5100's up front had 3 different positions. I didn't really check it out carefully but I can go look and see what position was used. (Assuming it works the way I'm thinking it...

They do. I bought some and OME springs. My mechanic tried the OME springs with said it didn't work and went with the oem springs and got 2 1/2 that way.i still have the springs and want to get the biltein shocks that will work with the new springs.But the stock springs with the 5100's seem to...

I like the sticking calipers idea. Couldn't the rubber smell be from sticking caliper making the wheel hot?

It's actually a bad picture. Most of them were a tan color but the center electrode was half gone on most of them. The other electrode quite eaten away also which had the gap at about .080. I don't know how many miles since the previous owner had changed them but I wish I knew just because. I...
