Hi all, I had trouble with the solenoid in the door in the passenger door drawing seven amps when the car was off. I pulled the trim panel, removed the plastic sheeting on the inside of the door and then cleaned and lubed the actuator rod from the door handle to the solenoid and sprayed penetrating ...

I am using a 96R type battery in mine and it is rated at 590 CCA, which is why I chose it. It is a straight drop in. A 47 or 48 series will also work (H5 is like a 48 series in size.) I thought of using a 48AGM but they don't like high heat... The original battery connection was stupid and mine went...

I was talking with a mechanic friend of mine and he mentioned he had seen a red Merk a couple weeks ago in Tulsa. It was an 88 or 89, I guess, as it had one rear spoiler not biplane. Anyone in here?

I see an HP model for $158 on Rakuten. They must be basic...

Oh, OK, I understand now. So, what are the specs for the hardware?

Hi, Having only looked at those at point of purchase long ago I have to plead ignorance of knowing what special feature would it have as you mention? The software is somehow adding another feature?

Hi all,

Thanks for the reply. Are the solid bushings alloy of some sort? Not poly I would guess. Do they use the original bolt or need the longer ones offered by mc2?

Cheers

I think I need blinker fluid as well... :wink: Sorry, standard mechanics joke when wanting to confuse folks. I think I am now good to go at the moment. I am really looking forward to feeling the difference when these are all installed in the car. Oh, I forgot, MERRY CHRISTMAS to all! :D I have enjoy...

Hi all,

I found the strut bearings at Merk Midwest. Anything more needed?

Cheers

Hi all,

I was wanting a vendor to show links to the the strut bearings.I have found the location of the poly bushing for the strut and the diff mount, Also is any other part needed to install struts? Thanks for the advice about the oil and rust...

I am thinking of trying this as a temporary option before I decide what to do long term about wheels. The paint is partially rubber based, it seems.
