  1. No, it mounts to the hitch: Yeah, you're probably right. I got the jack as a gift though, and figured I might as well mount it.
  2. I know, I meant to come along a few times, but it just never seems to work out I'm keeping an eye on the SCORE homepage though, so hopefully something comes up soon.
  3. I've used those on the stock front springs with no issues.
  4. Also, the spring might not be seated correctly. Check if the bottom end of the coil is propped against the notch in the seat of the strut.
  5. I've once wheeled in Grand Canyon: Nothing serious though.
  6. 60-80 bucks for the driver side does sound really cheap. I had the passenger side replaced for about that much.
  7. Also make sure there are no cracks in the rubber air duct that leads from the air filter to the intake manifold.
  8. What size tube did you use? I had tried two different tubes when I was replacing my struts, but neither one worked.
  9. I have 265/70/15 (~29.6"x10.43") General Grabber AT2's, and they do rub at full lock. Although I don't know how relevant that is considering I have a '96.
  10. It also depends on the tire and its tread. For any given size, a more aggressive tire will actually be bigger than a highway tire of the same size.
  11. I doubt that's what's causing the clunk. I've had that thing bouncing around for a while, until I replaced it with Airlift, and never heard any noise. If it had come off with the metal plate that was holding it up, then it would probably clunk, but since the bolt and the plate are still in place, it's just rubber.
  12. Oh, well I get about 16 mpgs combined, which seems to be the average for my year. I think you were probably addressing the OP at that point, and I thought you meant me.
  13. Haha, I know. It's definitely not an everyday solution. I've done it for 1 tank, and it was pretty depressing. Keeping it under 2.6k is more realistic though, since this is closer to when my auto trans. usually upshifts, and it still adds about 1 mpg.
  14. I've noticed that if I keep the revs under 2k while accelerating, I gain about 1.5-2 extra mpg's in the city. This does make for some pretty boring driving though.
  15. Nobody yet. We were betting on my manifold, and I have yet to have a closer look at it.
  16. I shall bet you one US dollar. Nice table. Didn't know angelfire still existed.
  17. Yeah, I haven't noticed any difference in MPGs when I switched from 235/70/15 (27.95") to 265/70/15 (29.60"). I have an exhaust manifold leak too, but I don't think it's cracked. Probably the gasket or the studs.
  18. Which code was it throwing? p0325? Has there been any noticeable improvement in fuel mileage?
  19. Maybe, but for now I plan on installing 5/16" spacers. I think that'll be enough to clear the frame. What makes it even stranger is that this is the stock tire size for '96 SE's, and I'd thought XE's and SE's were the same, save for the tire size and some other minor options.
