    Bendpak RJ-45 Jack Pin

    Thanks Ice. The roller is not "pinned" to the upside side down U frame shaped portion of the pin, can't figure out a way to remove/replace just the roller without a big hammer :rofl. Yes, I agree with you something else must have gone wrong for this to happen (sure like to figure it out).

    PPF Lumar Film and Ceramic Pro on

    Not to hijack the thread but thanks for the kind words, just a pup at 14 months now. Once the film is on the paint (any brand of film), the ceramic coating is not necessary IMO, it doesn't bond to the film as good as it does to the "naked" paint. I had SunTek film put on the M2 and followed it...

    Mercedes SLS Black Series Thoughts....?

    The only "cool" (SLS or SLS Black Series) Benz, also I'd look at the Jag F type R, awesome as well and they tank (lucky us), a 2 or a 3 year old one can be had for around $60K. The exhaust note and acceleration is something to write home about and on top of it all it's luxurious and can be...

    Best Battery choice(s)?

    The factory battery is an Optima Red Top battery that is FGT re-badged. Johnson Controls bought Optima and moved the plant to Mexico. Yup, junk at best now, ask me how I know. Sears Die Had that was a perfect replacement (Model P-3 Platinum P-3 - Group Size 75/86DT) discontinued now if I'm not...

    Ford GT hit with weight increase & significant power reduction for Le Mans

    When the C5 and C6 Corvettes were kicking Aston's butt and winning championships, they put all kind of restrictions on the Vettes and virtually nothing on the Astons, sadly it's not racing anymore, it's politics, Juan Fangio is rolling in his grave.
