Would this be in the service manual? If so, I will check it out for sure.

yah, im pretty sure it's in the service manual. the wind noise is coming from the gate itself right, not the glass on the hatch?

The guy says “sweet car”. I said “thanks”. He then said “wanna race for pinks?”.

To this I replied “Now what am I going to possibly do with a Dodge Caravan?”

Perfect response.

The front is +20 and the rear is +25.

I asked the guy about spacer and he suggest the offset is good enough. :icon17:

I am thinking about lower it too, but will wait till the rims is mounted and see how it goes, if I can avoid lower it then it is good cos I drive alot in the summer with HWY/city. And lots of construction on HWY during summer :shakes head:

Guys I have a problem. I have diagnosed myself as being a moddaholic. What can I do? I haven't even recieved my ZL1 and I'm already looking at mods and very close to ordering them. What am I to do? :shakes head:

LOL Spohn do you think we can be each others sponsor to work through this. :ugh2: Don't know if that would be a good idea we would probably have each other pulling engines and changing everything. Wait that doesn't sound like a bad thing :tiphat:

Fire 02-16-2012 07:30 PM

That is another problem Kenman my tax return is in my bank so I see it every time I check my balance. Maybe I should deposit it into savings and I won't even know it's there. I have to remember to use some of it to pay off the balance of my Aruba cruise this Oct.:excited:

Easy fix ===> keep modding your Z til the arrival of the ZL1, AND GIVE US THE Z GOODIES AFTER..... :tup:

Win Win Situation!!

Fire 02-16-2012 07:41 PM

Hmmm not sure how contributing to others mods helps me :shakes head: I'M kinda interested if my Z will be sold with all the mods or if they will de-mod the car and sell it that way? I do have to provide the stock parts when I trade it in.
