I just got my 08 with 21000 miles and the paint is in amazing shape except when the light hits the rocker panels a certain way they look horrible there are some many little chips. I wish the original owner had put the clear bra on but I think it's pointless now.
I am going to try and get the shock on without letting the gas out. Don't know if I will be able to as my kids aren't around to help.
Thanks for the info!
Gotcha. How much pressure should it be? Can I check the pressure with a tire pressure guage. Also, can I dirve the car without it being pressurized to fill it, or would that be damaging?
Thanks!
Well I finally got the shock out. The aluminum top basically came off in my hand it was so loose. I can't imagine how it got like that unless it was installed that way. The threads all looked fine so I don't think it
was pulled out.
I am now trying to get the shock back in. I have the bottom...
Thanks Steve but that link is for the gen V video. I will look up tech authority but doesn't dodge print a paper service manual anymore?
I would much rather have that than a cd I have to go to the computer to use.
I am trying to get my rear Moton shock off to see why the car is banging over bumps. I started another thread to try an diagnose the problem here http://forums.viperclub.org/threads/654343-Help-Diagnosing-Noise-form-Rear. I really didn't want to do this job myself but I was afraid to drive the...
I am a little stuck. I am trying to remove the rear shock (moton). It seems as though there is some type of preload on the shock. I have removed the lower bolt and have the upper bolt halfway out but there is a lot of torque holding it in. Do I need to remove the swaybar or tie rod bolts to take...
There is a small amount of play in the top of the shock. If I grab the top of the shock I can rotate it slightly left and right around the fitting in the center of the shock where the mounting bolt goes through it.
The shock doesn't actually move on the mounting bolt, just has a little movement...
That's what I am thinking looking at the exposed threads one the one side. It looks like they may be to adjust the height of the shock but I'm not sure. There is a nut at the bottom of the threads which you can't see in the picture.
I don't see any oil leekage around any of the banjo fittings and I have tried moving the rotor and it doesn't budge.
If you can look at my photo's of the moton's above, there are threads showing on one and not the other. Is this an
indication of something wrong or can that just be some type of...
I have been hearing the noise going over bumps for the last 2 weeks and checked the rear hatch but what happened last night definitely is not the hatch. I went over a small bump and something banged loud. Then I heard a squealing noise and loud bang over every bump.
I took both wheels off to...
