96 GTS Wheel Balance Issue
To check the front hub runout: 1. Jack the car up and support it. 2. Remove the wheel. 3. Reinstall the lugnuts with the shoulder turned backwards to hold the rotor onto the hub. 5. Mount a dial indicator (using a magnetic base stand) to the spindle with the needle riding on the outside edge...- DFW GTS

96 GTS Wheel Balance Issue
It is very likely that the left hub is damaged and has too much runout. When I purchased my car both front hubs had that problem. Another symptom of this problem is the brake pedal getting soft as you drive due to pad knock back.- DFW GTS

Bump Steer on a Viper
Looking at the service manual for a '96 GTS I see that the factory specs call for .36 degrees of bump steer throughout the front suspension travel. Everything I have ever learned says that, for best handling, you should try to achieve zero degrees of bump steer. I have to wonder if this...- DFW GTS

New Car Mileage Question?
I don't know if this was, or still is, done with every Viper manufactured but when I purchased my '97, included along with the owner's manual was a card that stated something to the effect of, "Team Viper put __ miles on this car during assembly and testing." This card had a 6 hand written in...- DFW GTS

Untitled 92 Value?
I own a '96 GTS so I would love to agree with you, but, I think which car becomes the better investment depends on how far down the road you are looking. Just for comparison purposes look at Corvettes as an example (I use the Corvette as an example because early production numbers are very...- DFW GTS
