So after 8yrs, I still miss my LS! I'm now a grad student again and I'm getting a bit tired of parking my monster K2500 Suburban in the school parking lot and the terrible gas mileage it gets. But as a poor grad student, I can't exactly go looking for that pristine LS that would be ideal...

I see the piece, its the where do you pull to get it loose. I didn't see any places to grab a hold up to pull on to get it loose.

Is that for a Gen II? I poked around a bit this morning and didn't see anywhere to pull on around the ashtray.

Howdy, I've lost D4. D5, 3, 2, and 1 all still work but move the shifter over and nothing happens. I'm guessing something is dirty or a switch has come loose. How do you pull the shifter surround on a Gen II? Thanks,

Tie rods are the same LS to S-Type to STR from my part number checking. Rack... Tijoe might be able to comment lock to lock. Considering that both the S-Type and LS share the same engine families, I would expect that picking up the V6 or V8 frame side mounts would allow your engine side to...

As long as I know where your datum points were I can try to replicate it on my 2003 LS. Many thanks for taking the time and if I ever go home to Pflugerville, will have to stop by and check your project out.

Confirmed, Bolt on the spindle/knuckle/hub carrier is an M10-1.5 Threaded end on the toe adjuster/rear tie rod/strut rod/etc is M12-1.75 My local ACE carried both.

If you could help us out by taking some measurements, please measure front to back on the right and left side attach bushing locations for the two as well as across and diagonal something like this: *---------* |...\..../...| |....\../....| |.....\/.....| |...../\.....| |..../..\....|...

Have folks had good luck with posting up parts wanted and getting responses? Thanks,

I was referring to the mounting of the later S-type K-member/Subframe with all of it's supporting control arms and knuckle to the 2003+ LS as a unit. While STR Brembo's would be nice, I'd be equally happy with the upgraded 320mm discs and brackets that Kumba discovered bolt on paired with the...

Guessing the car fell through?

The UCA is specific to the R vs the standard S-Type? Interesting, guess they got crazy with the spindle/knuckle with more than the caliper mounts. I also don't like solid rotors, if I did Brembos I'd adapt the Volvo S60R/V70R rear rotor and in hat parking brake since they share the same wheel...

Trial fit since I'm not pulling the bolt out of my only working car at the moment. I'd get the plain nut and if it fits I'll go get Nyloks to put on permanently.

I'm sure the nuts are available from Ford, it's the local Ford/Lincoln house that didn't show stock on one of them. I'm thinking the outboard nut is an M10x1.5 "Coarse". I'll grab a plain unit from ACE and see if it fits. Thanks,
