    Question for Bendpak HD-9 owners

    I did the same thing. It is so tight that it makes you remember to be careful when driving on. I open the door an lean out to look at the placement of the rear tire before the rear gets all the way up. Craig

    Saleen GT Wall Mount Group Purchase

    I received a call from them on Thursday. They told me they received about 50 orders from the group and were amazed. I guess they are doing the Red w/White first as he thought mine would ship in two weeks.:banana Craig

    Question for Bendpak HD-9 owners

    I have the HD9-ST lift, which is the narrower one. It is really too narrow for the rear wheels of the GT but I didn't have room for the wider one. I mounted tire chocks on the lift to stop the car in the right spot to fit in the garage so I don't use the supplied stops. The Bend Pak stops will...

    Halfshaft Bolt Answers (all threads merged)

    Reminds me of the "V" tail Bonanza problem of the mid eighties. The tail developed flutter, resulting in catastrophic failure (not good in an airplane :ack). The result was a crashing of the Bonanza market and airplanes. I should have purchased one, as 6 months later Bonanza came up with a fix...

    Halfshaft Bolt Answers (all threads merged)

    Interesting that the photo in the above link shows a single large bolt holding the flange to the transmission. I wonder why they deviated from what they knew worked. There most be some reason, and I doubt it was cost driven. There just can't be that much difference in cost.:confused Craig

    Valentine V1 Install in <10 Steps

    I do not, but I connected the red wire to the black/wgreen stripe on the mirror (it is the left most wire in the mirror connecter) and the green wire to the right most wire in the mirror connecter (which is black).

    Valentine V1 Install in <10 Steps

    I wired my V1 to the mirror and made an interesting discovery. If I leave it on with the doors closed and the engine off, the computer thinks the interior light is on and then shuts off the power to the light in the mirror. I discovered this when I left it on accidently and the car started right...

    Laguna Seca

    I have the Accufab exhaust and was at the Mini Nats at Sears Point in Sep. They had a sound limit of 103. I made 101. At an autocross in San Diego it was measured at 104, with a limit of 87. Needless to say I was not allowed to run. They have run stock GT's at the autocross and they apparently...

    What should this cost? I have ordered the bolt kits to due the replacement as insurance. On my nickel. They said the book called for $600 in labor to replace the axel bolts and $150 in parts. $600 seems awfully high for a two hour job. Does anyone know what the flat rate is in the book for the...

    helmet advice

    Be sure to try it on and wear it for at least 15 minutes. It should be tight, but not enough to give you a headache.:ack If you are going to wear a head sock, which is required if you have a beard or long hair, be sure to try the helmet with the sock on. Also ensure that it is an SA-2005 rated...
