Gone

I bought this used years ago and suspect it is causing a small noise when I brake or accelerate. The noise is possibly still there after removing the skid plate but that could be a separate noise? Anyhow, after multiple years of various noises and trouble shooting, I'm done with it and want to...

Another thought could be if the brake panic assist is not functioning properly/falsely thinking it’s a panic stop situation. I’ve noticed that every once in awhile it will kick at a hard or panic stop and it stays on for maybe 5 seconds more. During that 5 second period, if you hit the brakes...

Still available, lowered price to $150

I upgraded my suspension to deal with a heavier bumper and would like to sell the prior set up. They have about 40K miles on them. I have three shocks and four springs, plus the top hats for the front. One of the front shocks started leaking and therefore of three shocks, one is the front and...

This was also an option I was thinking about.

4th vote regarding xreas. Unless the lines were capped, I’m guessing your car was shooting out fluid for a while until all of it was gone. If they were capped, I don’t think they would function well without the front interaction. 5100 are relatively affordable and it seems highly unlikely they...

I hit all of the UCA grease nipples including the ball joint, and the noise was still there, but perhaps the grease is not properly spreading out?

I’ve got something that sounds the same but only occurs on the passenger side on a hard compression. Removed skid plate and sway bar, still there. Overhauled lower control arms with OEM bushings and Japanese made lower ball joint. Replaced outer steering ball joints. Still there. Checked torque...

I’ve seen some folks suggest painting their cats with hi vis orange or red paint.
