Mike, i just installed my hellwig and took your advice and went straight to the stiffest position. I have not road tested it because I'm too tired. At almost 70 and refusing to remove the spare to make things more accessible, I fought that bugger and finally got it installed. I'll take it for a...
Ok here's a for instince, my 2013 Subaru Impreza needs a new front cv axle. I could do it myself but the problem is the vehicle is quite low to the ground. My delemma is, can I get the axle out or in without a problem because of the needed height to do the job. So I'm checking how much a local...
Funny thing is we all choose the jobs we want to do or can't be bothered to do so no problem sharing the costs on these maintenance items. If you have the cash why not have them do it so you don't have to deal with it.
There have been jobs on my other vehicles I've farmed out because I had the...
At high speed I felt like I lost the crispness in steering, felt like if something happened I would have an issue controlling the vehicle and hence the Hellwig to the rescue.
I just received an email reply from Hellwig as I asked how to properly install the bar and he said "The hump in the bar should be going down" per tech support. I saw an install video where it appears the hump is facing up so I needed clarification. I'm not going offroad so if the bar is...
I just pulled the trigger on the Hellwig sway bar, should have it by the end of the week. I have the bilstein 5100 shocks and have been satisfied in the improvement in stability. The issue is at 65-70 mph on the highway I just don't feel confident in a quick reaction as the truck feels floaty to...
So why not install the Fitzstick and drain at 30k and 60k at which time install the aluminum pan and replace the filter at the same time, 2 birds with one stone!!
For that kind of money ,I think I will replace the pan with one of the 2 after market ones so the fluid can be drained easily. Also I will siphon as much fluid as I can to make the pan replacement easier.
The good news for me is at 6k miles on my 21 Ranger this won't be happening for a while...
I don't like that the dimensions have increased as my 21 Ranger fits ok in the garage. A few more inches as with the 24 Ranger would make things tight.
Yup I was afraid of that. The only good news is I extended my warranty too 10 yrs. 48k miles and don't expect to hit the miles, so I have 7+ years left.
Mike, enjoy the new pup, beautiful little girl. You now have some torture coming as she will be a handful until she slows down. Could be a while for that, but as you know its totally worth it!!!!
I just upped my warranty from 8/36 premium care $50 ded. cost $520 to 10/48 $50 ded. for an aditional $600 for a total of $1120 for piece of mind for 10 yrs. I don't put on alot of miles as my 21 ranger its under 6k miles after a little over 2ys. I included the led lights in the warranty...
The bottom line here is the MBS stick / Fitzstick is the best stick available. I have yet to read a post where someone is unhappy with this product. Yes you can opt for a few different solutions but Mikes production is top notch, and he's put his heart and soul into its production.
This...
For volts you can pick up a usb dual outlet 12v which plugs in 1 of the 2 12v outlets on the lower dash. It displays battery voltage and amps used if something is plugged into the usb.
