    How many people have issues with their rear hatch gas shock supports in cold weather?

    This seems to be an ongoing issue which happens every year as soon as cold weather sets in. The gas shocks supporting the rear hatch don't work when it gets cold then come back to life when it starts to get warm outside. New shocks usually last that season, then when it's the following cold...

    Custom parking brake cable with an adjustment assembly.

    My parking brake cable broke, and I was having a difficult time trying to locate a replacement. I saw some cables advertised with various lengths. I didn't want to order one then find out that it didn't fit so I attempted to repair the damaged cable. It was good but it had too much slack. The...

    Has anybody modified their charging system?

    My stock 7750 3G alternator in my 1995 van is rated at 95 amps which is low compared to more modern vehicles which use 130 to 160 amp alternators. I've looked into 350 to 370 amp alternators but they cost almost $500 which is a huge investment in a 25 year old vehicle. The reason why I'm doing...

    Somebody stole a part from my van while I was in Home Depot!

    I don't know why somebody would need only one panel. I made 3d printed covers to hide body damage under the taillights.

    Solved Watered down gasoline from a local service station.

    I was driving my 1995 van this morning without any issues then I noticed that I was about one notch away from the empty mark. I went to my regular gas station to fill up. This place is usually the lowest price in my area. I pulled out, and didn't have any issues driving home less than a half a...

    I saw this free antique car listed on Craigslist. Does anybody know what it is?

    The description doesn't say what kind of car it is. Maybe it's good for somebody like Jay Leno to restore. Here's the link: Old car 1950's great for art project or restoration project.

    How to: Replace front wheel bearings in an Aerostar.

    The front wheel bearings in the Aerostar last a long time just as long as they are periodically lubricated with fresh grease at each brake job. They wear out eventually, and have to be replaced just like any other part in the van. The job is easy to do, and doesn't take that much time. Here are...

    Opinions wanted for engine drive belts.

    My drive belt has been making clicking noises for a while. It started to come apart while driving, and I was fortunate to be near an Autozone with one belt in stock. I purchased a Dayco belt with a 3 year warranty from Autozone a couple of years ago. The first belt only lasted around a year...

    BrooklynBay's electric scooter project.

    A few weeks ago I was walking around the neighborhood, and found an electric scooter that was in bad condition. It was thrown out because it has a burned out speed controller, rust, was missing batteries, the charger, screws, etc. The cost of one of these scooters is around $80 on sale, and $112...
