    E-fan Question

    in The Garage

    Posted

    I also oughta mention the Flex-a-lite 33054.

     

    So if i did something like the flex-a-lite, would that mean I wouldn't need to use an additional relay? (relay on the controller, relay for high speed)

     

    Would I still be able to wire it direct to the A/C?

    About the Nissan VSS

    I have never used the built in alarm in my pathy, it's always been more of an annoyance honestly.

     

    Well, a friend and I were doing some interior work and when he pulled the center console, he clipped the wires for the rocker switch. It wasn't a big deal to me, but I've come to find out that the system is basically always on. After I turn the truck off and close the door, if I go into the truck after that or open the hatch it goes off. Bad part is, he clipped the wires in such a way that I can't reconnect them.

     

    So, anyone know how to disable, disarm or remove the VSS alarm?

    I would hope that would be the case.

     

    I was just looking for the parts that were listed on the Mustang write up that everyone keeps pointing to. If someone has different way to do it, I'm all ears.

     

    MW, your link was dead.

    E-fan Question

    I'm starting to gather the necessary parts for an e-fan upgrade. The one thing I'm having trouble finding is the 75 Amp Bosch relay.

     

    Where did you guys get yours? Any ideas?

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Torsion Bar Question

    in The Garage

    Posted

    So I should move the adjuster, and not especially the bar itself?

     

    :shrug:

     

    My thought so far (and lord knows I could be wrong) is to leave the t-bars in the LCA's, get the adjusters off the t-bars, set the adjusters so that they're about even, then reconnect them and crank the piss out of them. Does that sound even close to right?

     

    The other problem I have, is that I'm probably going to have to take the t-bar out of the LCA anchor when I do the lower bushings.

    Torsion Bar Question

    in The Garage

    Posted

    Before anyone asks, I've read about every post here regarding t-bar lifts and re-indexing. For some reason, it just doesn't seem to gel.

     

    I was under my truck today (for an unrelated issue) and saw the torsion bar adjusters. I started studying them as I'm going to crank them to get the lift I need out of the front end. The first thing I noticed is that the passenger side adjuster was below the crossbar, and well lower than the drivers side (which may exlpain why my truck dipped to the right). I loosened the adjuster nut and cranked the adjuster in a bit, so that it was closer to where the driver side was. Lo and behold, my truck no longer leans to the right.

     

    That got me to thinking about setting up the lift. It doesn't seem to me like they could be cranked in too much farther, so i'd think that would mean they need to be re-indexed first. If i read the posts properly, I have to seperate the t-bar from the adjuster and move it inboard of the truck. Once i get them set, i can crank away.

     

    Now, that leads me to 2 questions.

     

    1: When I back the bar off the adjuster, it will come out of the socket on the LCA as well, right? So, I'm actually moving splines on both ends.

     

    2: Once I get the t-bar off the adjuster, should i balance the adjusters so that they're in the same general place? i would think that if I put them just under the crossbar, when I crank them to get the lift they would go above it and I wouldn't have to worry about them hanging down.

     

    Soory to be so Dee Dee Dee, but I don't want to start messing with them 'till i feel like I know what I'm doing.

     

    Please be gentle. :hide:

    Buying new suspension finally

    Jay,

     

    I think I posted the exact same thing about 3 months ago. I ended up with neither due to all the helpful people around here.

     

    I ended up with JGC rear coils, Rough Country UCA's up front, Pro Comp ES9000 shocks, and it cost me a fraction of what the lowest kit from A/C would have run me.

     

    These guys saved me some SERIOUS money and got me pretty much exactly what I wanted.
