Takes a mere 30 seconds to remove the trunk liner, and remove the spare + jack etc. Leave the liner and spare tire and jack , and everything else u find in the truck area, OUT of the car, and temp put it to one side. Then take it for a ride. Yes, and check with a flashlight, feel around...

Are you folks taking abt that bearing, where the oem 2 piece DS joins in the middle ?

You would require 625 hp at the crank to get 500rwhp with any 5r55s. That's way beyond the safe limit for the stock block. Stock 5r55s just explode with 500 rwhp. I have yet to see any stock 5r55s that will hold 500rwhp.

My sensor is at right side (driver's side) on the lower grille. It clips into the lower grille. That's on my 2010 GT auto.

A 6 point socket is a lot stronger.... and the only thing that should be used on any impact wrench. Oops, just see u have 12 point bolts, wtf?

There are TWO of those damned things, one on either side of the eng, and both on the firewall. Reach down and pull em right out....then toss em.

Install a catch can on the rear axle. I used an Eaton-detroit tru-trac LSD (which uses plane jane 90W-140 dino oil), and also a whiteline watts link. The white line watts link comes with a new, super thick aluminum differential cover, like > 60mm thick. It comes with drain + fill plugs...and...

Whoever buys em, could easily measure the offset....then spill the beans. "trade secret 236B"...gimme a break.

Yes, what is the offset ? I'm assuming the rear offset is greater than the front offset.

U mean.... 'illegal aliens'.

Celsius is far too coarse for my liking. 10 C = 50 F. 20 C = 68 F 30 C = 86 F. A 10 deg C spread = a 18 F spread. A 20 C spread = 36 F spread. Having said that, when it's > 10 C, I use the F scale. When it's < 10C, I use the C scale. When it's getting close to freezing...

Nope, In Canada, mileage is XXX litres per 100 kms. I get abt 20 litres per 100km around town...and maybe 10-12 litres per 100 km on the hwy. If I switch from metric to imperial it's miles per gallon, and that's an imperial gallon ( = 4.54 litres). Metric came out after I left high...

The problem with koni yellow is.... they have hard compression. The adjustable part is ONLY the rebound. The koni orange are hard compression and rebound. What u want to end up with is..... firm, but not stiff. Stiffer / bigger front + rear sway bars will eliminate a lot of the leaning on...

A few inspectors are extremely good, but that is rare. We had one in Vancouver years ago...who the real estate agents all hated with a passion. They called him... "Dr death". So he got "Dr Death" custom plates on his vehicle. He found loads of problems, leaks, screwups, non standard...

When the OP finally gets this sorted out, pse let us know what you found. It could help others down the road.
