The Limited wheels really look good on a black SRT6. Enjoy.

 

 

I Replaced my Center Bearing Hanger this weekend. I did not replace the bearing, only the rubber hanger.

I wrote up Center Bearing Hanger replacement instructions and posted them

 

Hi all,
Actually the following work was done yesterday and this morning. I removed the wiper arms and plastic cowl, cleaned out the drains, enlarged the hole for the missing wiper isolator on the driver's side, installed the missing isolator, lubricated the wiper mechanism, checked out the alarm but found that the circuit board was fried, taped up the connector to the alarm and did not re-install the alarm, re-installed remaining parts and replaced one of the "S" letters on the rear panel of the car. Since it is a nice day, time to drive the Crossfire.

 

windscreen body drains on the coupe, drivers side totally blocked so had to remove the inner and wash tank to clean from the bottom. so much crap in there. im doing the roadster tomorrow. thanks for the pictures, makes life so much easier.

 

Over the last couple of days. Replaced my Windshield washer pump which hadn't failed completely but seemed really weak, especially when cold. The new one seems to be much quicker to respond and stronger in flow. Hopefully this helps in cold weather also.
Also replaced my overhead lights. I had installed LEDs about a year ago and liked the look. I thought the mounting sockets might have developed a poor connection since they were not seating very well but I had glued the retainer and that worked well at the time. It turned out that my previous work held, the LED bulbs themselves were failing. I put new ones in and it works well now.
Today I finally hooked up my Homelink compatibility bridge in the garage so that I can use the Homelink buttons for my smart garage door openers. I had some problems with this on my first attempt and had pushed this task to the side but I finally got it to work. Since I have two garage doors I can now control each one of them using the Homelink.

 

 

 

 

 

On the hunt for a pass rear rubber lift mount.


Been meaning to do a more detailed cleaning after buying this low mile SRT6 on 7/27/18. Yesterday pulled all 4 wheels off (fronts first, then the rears). Did a deep cleaning of inner fenders and suspension pieces as well as the backside of all 4 wheels. I'm sure I removed 13 years of crud. Surprisingly, just some surface rust on the major frame and suspension bolts. Wire brushed 'em and applied some dielectric grease to slow that down. Wheels seem to pop a little more. Pics follow. Enjoy!

 

Last week I replaced the windshield trim with pieces off a salvage. The new ones are the same body color as mine and look really nice.

But this week - I took it for a drive! I ran it from home (bottom of Texas) to the North-side of Dallas (8 hours each way). I was amazed at how well a 13 year old car with 125K miles just ate up the road. I've had fun cars before, but I think this one is my favorite so far.

And - 29.9 mpg at speeds between 75 and 85 mph.

Do I have to give this car to my daughter? Do I?

 

 

The top piece is what I was missing. It feels secure. I used fresh 3M tape on the clips. I did see them on-line in chrome at around $299. I hope mine stay on. Thanks.

 

I believe those are overlays you are seeing.

 

I had 3M Automotive trim tape on mine originally as well. The tape didn't hold and a couple of months later, it blew off on the turnpike going 75mph
You may be better off with some kind of two part epoxy or Marine Tex

 

Drove it 100 miles round trip to the beach to check out a Jet Ski I ended up buying. On the way down,I finally broke 200K on the odometer. I was hoping to stop and take a picture at 200000 but missed it
