nevermind, figured it out.

When installing the upper control arm, when do you tighten the bolts to torque specs. Is it when the tire is on and the car is all the way down to the ground? What is the easiest way to do this with jack stands and a jack? What is really meant by suspension should be at curb height. Thanks...

Thanks for the replies. When I did check the ball joints, I jacked the car up with the frame and was not able to get any play from the joint unless I lifted the tire up with a tire iron from the bottom. I got some vertical play but nothing else and it was the same on both sides, almost seemed...

While the car is still I turn the wheel all the way to the left then all the way to the right and about half way through the turn I hear a poping noise. This happens pretty much everytime. When I go over big bumps it pops a little on the same side, which is the passenger side. I have checked...

anyone?

Can someone explain (or a picture) to me how to bend the anti-rattle clips in order to fit the caliper and to work properly. These are the clips that go at either end of each brake pad. Do you install the clips on the inside pad, facing the piston? Thank you in advance for your replies and...

I would like to know if anyone who has completed the stabilizer bar replacement has a step by step guide for this? I plan on tackling this project soon and would like all the help I can get since I know it will be a pain. Thank you for your help.

mine only does it when the engine is warm. My radiator overflowed a couple of times I wonder if water is getting on the springs and causing it to squeak. Shot in the dark.

I have a 2000 V8 and it seems that I have a squeaking front shock maybe. When I push down on the front end it squeaks when it comes back up. Is this a bad shock or something worse? It is the front driver's side. Thank you for your suggestions.

They are fairly new. Still have a lot of pad left on them. I will go check the lug nuts. Thanks.

I heard a noise today that kind of threw me off guard. It's like a squeaking noise at speeds around 40 and under. Whenever I brake the noise goes away. It almost sounds like a plastic to metal squeaking noise. It does it when I go over bumps but not when I push down on the front of the car...

Will there be some signs like fluid around the cap or something to look for.

I want to say hello everyone and to thank you all for posting some really good information. Here is my problem. I have a 2000 with 80,000 miles and a leak that only shows up every once in a while. I know its a coolant leak cus its green. It is leaking right under the front driver's side...
