    Original Viper DVD with case, Magic Carpet Ride

    I have the original Magic Carpet Ride DVD, I will be placing on eBay. What would be a good starting bid for this? I know it's rare and would like to get top dollar to pay for prostate cancer treatments.

    Greenbrier Concours d'Elegance

    I would like to attend Saturdays event. Can anybody with a Viper just show up or do you pre-register? I don't drive a show car but would like to mingle with other owners.

    2000 with 9k miles...what are the risks?

    Excellent advice on crankshaft bolt. Mine worked loose and kept eating belts. Fortunately no damage. This forum saved me an engine. Mechanic new nothing about crank bolt until I told him. No problem since tightening several years ago.

    Interview with New York Times and I got to sneak in a Viper picture

    Hi Guys, A little off topic but important information I shared during a recent interview with New York Times. Was able to sneak a picture of 2000 Viper GTS. Strong message for guys over 50. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/25/health/prostate-cancer-active-surveillance-surgery-radiation.html?_r=1

    2000 GTS Window Regulator

    Just had my window regulator replaced by dealer. The part alone was $540. Weird thing the motor worked well on old but wouldn't operate window up or down. Is there any residual value in old broken regulator? I would think someone could rebuild it.

    Old Brembo front pads

    I have two sets (8 pads) OEM Brembo's (front) that will fit a 2000 GTS. One set is about 50% with other set about 65-70% worn. Yours for $30 including shipping. Would make nice track pads. They were never tracked and removed prematurely due to dust issue. My email is viperguy @...

    Gen II 2000 front pad replacement

    Thanks for the help guys. Replaced front pads without issues thanks to your instructions. I was able to apply enough pressure with fingers to depress pistons on front side of caliper and used old pad (as suggested) for engine side of caliper. I'm glad caliper did not have to come off vehicle...

    Gen II 2000 front pad replacement

    Makes sense using old pad for piston push back. I suppose you would use a large flat screw driver with a tiny piece of wood behind it using rotor for leverage to push back pistons.

    Gen II 2000 front pad replacement

    Thanks for the reply Steve. Replace one at a time, interesting. I supposed a wooden paint stir stick would fit in that area. I've always used a C-clamp on my other vehicles because it does take a bit of force to push pistons back. However I'll certainly give it a try. I purchased EBC red...

    Gen II 2000 front pad replacement

    I've read on this forum it is not necessary to unbolt caliper when replacing front pads. Simply remove two pins and pull out pads. When installing new pads how would you depress caliper pistons this way? I will most likely need to remove calipers since pads are quite worn. Anybody know...

    94 RT/10 Side Curtains

    I still have my old RT side curtains which were only used a few times. The plastic is very clear with no scratches. What is a good price to ask for these? I really don't have a clue. Was thinking about putting them on eBay.
