    Valve Covers

    I'd like to repair the peeling paint on my valve covers (Gen 1). I've searched the forum and concluded that the factory red wrinkle paint is non-existent. That said, I would like to keep the look as close to stock as possible. I found a set of wrinkle finish, powder coated covers on eBay...

    Jack Stand Locations (SRT-10)

    I'd like to change the oil in my newly acquired SRT-10 in my garage. I started jacking up the rear passenger side yesterday, but did not see an obvious place to place a jack stand under the frame so that I could use the hydraulic jack to raise the rest of the vehicle. Is there a good spot or...

    Blew 1 Pilot Sport tire...what to do next?

    I recently picked up a 2006 SRT-10 w/ 1800 miles. Unfortunately, I ran over a chard of metal tonight and blew the right rear tire. The tires are original Pilot Sport ZP and have great tread on them. Here is my dilemma: It's been my understanding that tires only last about 5 years, so these...

    Shopping for Gen 3 SRT-10

    I'm thinking about selling my 1994 RT/10 to upgrade to a Gen 3 SRT-10 and have a question. Are there any differences between the early model years? Mainly 2003, 2004, and 2005? Is there any reason to shy away from a 2003 due to the fact that it's the first year of a new model? I know for...

    How to fix a broken floor mat clip

    One of the wires that my drivers side floor mat clips too is broken. Are these easily repaired/replaced? I'm referring to the wire that sticks out of the carpet, not the clip that's attached to the mat itself. Thanks in advance.

    Here is the VIN: I'm looking at it on ebay/Marshall Goldman. I read that all 2004 SRT/10's had the 7/70 warranty, but the seller wasn't sure. Thanks

    Thinking of upgrading to an SRT/10 and have some pre-purchase questions

    I currently own a 1994 RT/10 and am seriously considering upgrading to an early SRT/10. I have really enjoyed the Gen 1 for the last 3 years, however, the lack of creature comforts has finally caught up. It is becoming too much of a pain in the a$$ to deal with snap in windows and a stow-away...

    Can someone send me a scanned copy of their 1994 RT/10 window sticker? I cannot locate my original and am unable to get a duplicate. My insurance company has asked for this as a reference for an agreed value policy, plus it's nice to have for the records. Thanks, Bill

    I've got a 94 RT/10 with the OEM 17" wheels and just purchased new Pilot Sports in April. Shortly thereafter, I came across a great deal on some used gen 3 10 spoke wheels/tires, so I bought them with the intention of selling for a quick profit. When I saw them next to my car, I considered...
