2017 Chevy SS Wheels

These are the stock wheels off my 2017 Chevrolet SS sedan. I traded the car in with the winter wheel setup on and kept these. I ran them on my Caprice for a little bit and they look pretty neat. I switched to a summer/winter wheel/tire setup, so I don't need these anymore. They we're stored in my cl...

Re: 2011 9C3 ignition acting up

I have had the same issue intermittently since I purchased my car. It has been more common lately, and I have been able to get the car started by fiddling with the shifter. I had thought about a bad neutral safety switch, and was able to get the car started in neutral the other day with no issue. Th...

As a follow-up, I got the adjustment done tonight and the parking brake works again like it should.

Thanks.

Re: Howdy from Texas!

How do you like the FK510s? I had looked at those, but ended up with General G-Max RS.

Re: Rear emergency brake shoe broken

When I did my rear brakes one of my shoes just fell apart. The friction material was separated from the backing plate in chunks. They didn't look like they were ever used by previous owner. No signs of wear. I have never used the parking/emergency brake and just removed it. In fact I don't think I ...

Re: Steering Wheel Shake

I fixed my steering wheel shake by replacing both lower control arms on each side with Superpro replacements. The stock caster adjustment insert was sloppy. I put the Superpro +1* caster inserts in place of the stock inserts. While I was at it, I put in Tein springs along with Monroe struts. Do you...
