    Tranny ticking?

    I have been having a problem with my explorer and am unsure as to the cause. It has a ticking nois that seems to be RPM associated (gets quicker if the engine runs quicker) but it is somewhat intermittent. The ticking starts quiet, and gets louder then stops, starts quiet, gets louder and...

    slightly wider wheels?

    Hi Turnston, I have 31x10.5 BFG AT's on 15x8" centerline hellcats with 3 3/8" backspacing and the tires look just right. With the 3" body lift, the rig looks like it should have from the factory. The handling is better than I expected (I actually had the thing go near sideways under heavy...

    Wheel weghts

    I was having problems with the standard clip on wheel weights on my MR2 and just put a dab of JB QuikWeld on and didn't have any problems for another year when new tires were put on. Also look into flat weights placed insided of the wheel covered with duct tape (on a clean surface. This is a...
