    Loose harmonic crank damper bolt

    Searched the forums with no real luck. Was changing the oil and crank pulley bolt was just hand tight. Looked to check this because each of my 3 previous Vipers had this problem (1 damaged the crank itself necessitating complete engine rebuild). On a different occassion, I bought an 05...

    VEC2 ???

    Can someone explain to me what exactly the VEC can do and how for an SRT application. Does it give the ability to adjust air/fuel ratio to compensate for other issues? Can it be used to override factory defaults....ie if car defaults to safe mode due to sensor failure or me tinkering with...

    Tire Pressure System ???

    Just changed stock wheels for HREs. Dash now indicated low pressure warning on tires. Have non-runflats. Have read several posts on this issue and my basic question is this... Does it really matter if I have a dash indication of low tire pressure? Does it affect any other vehicle parameters...

    E-brake relocation

    Just finished the Archer E-brake relocation kit for my SRT. Had mounted a set of new HREs, but they wouldnt fit correctly due to ebrake interference. Kit was a little tricky but not too bad. Much easier with my lift. Cant imagine trying it with jackstands but then cant imagine much of...

    HRE trouble

    Got a set of 19" HREs used. Were on a GTS, putting on an 04 SRT. Fronts fit fine. Rears have an interference with the ebrake. The rear rims are not straight flush on the inside but have a hump about 2 inches from the inner edge. Unlike the stock SRT rims, this "hump" is what is interfering...

    Got a set of HRE 543s, 19". Were on a GTS. Trying to put on my SRT. Fronts are fine, rears are the problem. They clear the calipers fine but the e-brake connection cable has about a 1mm interference. Can this be articulated to not interfere...looks like some allen connections that might...

    Rear gears/speedo ??

    Read in a previous post that by changing SRT to 3.55s, no correction to speedo is necessary. Someone stated that speed sensor and computer will compensate speedo. Can someone explain how this is possible? Speed sensor detects pulses of a transmission gear and should be correlated to a fixed...

    Check engine light ??

    I know rear O2 simms trick computer into thinking cats are still there, thereby eliminating a check engine light. Before I put the O2 simms on, not only did the check engine light appear, but the car seemed to backfire quite a bit. Maybe running rich??? Can someone explain this to me and and...

    Harmonic balancer went...

    Vipermed pretty much cleared this up for me but wonder if anyone here has had or heard of it happening before. Harmonic balancer separated from crank, hence crank pully assembly wont turn accessories with serpentine belt. Motor being sent back to arrow.
