    Can someone tell me where the AC coolant recharge valve is?

    well first off you don't have to worry about putting it in the wrong spot, the hose will only fit the low psi side of the a/c. The port will be some where on the low psi side of the a/c more then likely back right of engine. It will have a plane black cap on it about the size of a nickel. If not...

    Where do/did you mount your tweeters

    I have seen this spot and like it. But I thought it might be a bit far away from the mid's and put the tweeter off axis or be forced to run a high x-over point 5k or higher to get a good stage. Or dose it work out well?

    front end noise (think drive train)

    high speed shake I think might be a tie rod ( just has that "feel" to it) I know it is not the drive shaft as it was done at the dealer 10k ago. How can I tell if it is a c/v joint, front diff, or wheel bearing. Sorry can be over wordy and a real bad speller to go with it.

    $1000 to spend on mods (5.0)

    well form what I can see I guess Ill drop the transfer case swap for now. The mods I am looking at are for power, with the benefit of an mpg gain ( cold air intake= 10hp + 1 to 2 mpg from what I have read) The electric fan sounds like a real good one will be looking at this one more. I wish...
