I recently had to replace the IC pump (mine failed at
exactly 22,500 miles... practically threw wifey and I onto the front hood when it kicked out while I was trying to squash a bug under the throttle pedal)
Easy enough to swap the pump, an absolute monster to get the panel in FRONT of the pump off. That upper 10mm nut is behind everything and its brother... AND its mother
Aside from the SRT, Im also very involved in all things guitar... building, repairing, modifying, playing and the same with amps. Been with that hobby for 40+ years.
Anyway, Im really glad to have joined, and Im looking forward to interacting with the members here!!

Welcome to the forum. Sounds like you got a nice SRT-6 Roadster.
I took guitar lessons from about 8 to 17. My teacher, who was a leading guitarist in KCMO area and a factory Gibson rep, lived next door to us. Once my fingers could reach around the fret board & touch my thumb, he started teaching me. At 17, he said I knew everything he did.
So I read music and played professionally until I turned 40. Used to have enough equipment that it took a cargo van to haul it around. Still have a Fender Jaguar Custom, solid white. Everything but gold-plating. Still have my musician's guild card.
Later,
