This is just getting stupid. I have been all over the internet, my local dealers, parts stores (no the KYB boot kit cant be used on a TEMS strut) My boots/bumpstop on the rear are gone, dust even. I went to the dealer and he couldnt get them supposedly. I went to an import guy across...

Its called a 'strut bellow' big rubber boot that protects the shock from dirt and dust... I can now say for sure that the KYB non-TEMS rubber boot does NOT work. I bought 2 across town hoping they might just need the center enlarged. NOPE they are too small and wont stay in the mount...

Have you seen anyplace with the TEMS boots? My dealer cant get them.... I can only find the standard non-adjustable boots. V

Thats what I thought until they started referring to a bearing. Mine looks fine other than the boot being dust.... I mean the boot literally disintegrated when I removed the spring. I guess it doesnt need replacing the clunk was most likely the strut as it is still froze about half way...

Well the line I was getting from the dealer is that there was a bearing in there that would go bad. I confirmed this at NAPA when they listed this part without a bearing..... My strut apparently jams about halfway as when I was pulling the spring it just stopped expanding... I will...

Hey all Im replacing my springs and struts. I found I needed the 'bellows' that cover my struts.. They seem to be a dealer item for the TEMS struts... What is wierd is I had a clunk. I know my strut was bad beyond a doubt. How do you tell if that mount is bad. They say there is a bearing in...

Thats odd... I was on the Cygnus listing... I didnt see that diagram... I must have gone another way... Thanks a whole bunch that helps A LOT!!!! V

What is that part called? I have been hunting it and on the TSRM it doesnt have a part number... I pulled my rear strut off and the boot was dust... I really mean it it disintegrated when I pulled off the spring.... I popped it free off the mounting collar and I need to replace it... Im...

I can say from personal experience while on vacation many years back that the 7mgte is DEFINITELY NOT and interferance engine.... I snapped mine in Myrtle Beach SC.... What I CAN also say is that the dealer Folgers Toyota down there was AWESOME. The mechanic really took great care of my...

Go to partsexpress.com or go to wrangler power products... I bought loads of stuff from both vendors for installs... Hell I have a powermate 170 amp alternator still humming away that was ORIGINALLY INSTALLED IN MY 85 Supra in 1990!!!! Thats badass. You should also check soundomain.com for...

The K&N is a good start but a serious smile goes on your face when you put on a nice blow off valve... The greddy and HKS SSV really pull a grin. Then a cat back exhaust followed by a downpipe (BIC is nice as is cooleze) avoid the non-elbowed versions as they are great fun to install and once...

Well Im stuck... Its like the muffler is twisted. I have the catalytic mounted with the catco logo facing up and the downpipe seems lined up. I am going to see what I can do to get that trans bracket fabbed to the pipe. Its wierd the exhaust seems twisted. I can rock it back and forth but the...

I know as careful as I was at almost stock height I banged a ding in the muffler already... I dont think the exhaust is going to do well in VA.... Our roads suck as does 80% of our parking lot entrances... V

Well the cat and downpipe is tucked up in the frame pretty good... When you guys say tied to the transmission are you putting a clamp on that bracket that mounts with 2 bolts to the transmission? I didnt put mine on as it didnt fit the downpipe and looked like all it would do is rub the paint...

Well I currently have all the hangers EXCEPT the big metal one that seems to just sit against the downpipe... I dont need it rubbing the paint off the downpipe.... I have the downpipe installed and then the hanger for the cat is bolted to the back of the catalytic flange. The catalytic is...

Does anyone have any pics of their 3 inch exhaust installed? Im really looking for the cat bracket and differential.. I have clearance at the cat and transmission when Im under the car with it jacked up.. BUT its binding somehow.. Something is not right. Im running the Tanabe exhaust with a...

That could be as its coming from the dash/floor area under the shifter and radio.... Im going to give it a good eye tonight.... What really sucks is I havent lowered the car yet... siiigh V

Dang. I thought you said you had the BIC... Im starting to enjoy this project... I put the MSD 8.5 wires up on there wednesday before the rattling was found... They dont really make a difference but they look good... Also they are a bit on the short side... Now I gotta torment Devin for a...

Im thinking I need to bend the bracket that holds the downpipe.. (looks like a big flat piece of metal...) I was for the smaller factory exhaust.. Ill know tonight when I can get under the car.. V

I know I pick back... Oh that model camaro... or oh is that the 5.0 that twists the frame from abuse? heh heh V
