My 8 year old nephew rides with me a good bit. Problem is the passenger seat bottom is angled back and his car seat not high enough to see over the dash. Looking for recommendations on higher car seats/booster seats or what you’ve done to help your little car buddies see better. I was going to...

I worked on my car the other day but due to work couldn't take it out for a long haul till today. Some members suggested I do two things, first I lowered my tire pressures down to 30lbs and I added 1oz to 1.5oz of fritction modifier to my rear end. I did both at the same time so idk which it was...

Having the same issue, I'm curious as what you find out.

Thanks guys, for the cost I got replacement bushing coming for the front and back. How do you tell if the front end links are bad?

I thought there should be some movement but wasn't sure about that much. I hear some noise in the rear end after driving it for a half hour. It's a louder humming noise and I get some vibration but I kinda though it was cause I replaced the bushing on top of the rear end. Maybe my differential...

Been having some handling problems with the car. I crawled under to look around and seen some wear marks on the sway bar. I stuck a bar in and got a lot of movement as you can see from the video. I take it it shouldn't move that much or should it? I can move it back and forth by hand

Thanks, that's where I was going to start looking next as the tires didn't fix it. I was going to start there but They only have 18k miles on them I didn't think they'd be worn that bad yet

I did both A Arm bushings, prothane makes both. What I liked about them is they don't use any of the stock bushing pieces, the other company's you had to use the shell of the liquid filled stock bushing. The outer shell that bolts to the frame on the prothane was much beefier then stock. Wish I...

Yes we checked all the ball joints and tie rod ends, sway bar bushing, and end links. No it goes this week for an alignment. It's weird, you don't notice below 60-65 or if your into the skinny petal but as soon as you let off, go above 70 or take a turn at speed it's all over the place. I did...

Wanted to give an update on the prothane front bushing I installed. Installation was smooth and straight forward, took care of any free movement I had with the stock bushings. Overall very happy with them. The only kicker is it didn't fix my car riding like a boat above 65 mph, I was pretty...

Great, just what I was wanting to here. Catmonkey do you notice any swaying or riding like a boat in the rear end with the 40 series? I have a bit of that and was thinking of going down to a 35 series to see if it fixed it

i need some new front tires, I currently have the stockers up front with 285/40/18 conti DW extremes out back. Im also going to upgrade to new wheels that are 10" in the back. The DW are like brand new but I want to go with that wider tire in the back so I thought about moving the 285 up front...

Looking for a quote on 2 Michelin Pilot Super sports in 275/40/18. Could I also get a quote on 2 Continental ExtremeContact Sport in the same size. Trying to decide which ones I want to go with. Be shipped to 16050

I went ahead with the prothane bushing, liked that it didn't reuse any of the OEM bushing stuff. I never realized there was that big of difference between those two type of bushing, you guys produced a ton of good info, thank you. I'll run down those heat shields and get them installed also...

I really don't want to go back to factory bushing, and if I'm going to spend $300 on stock arms I'll just spend a little more on the BMW ones thanks though. I wanted to upgrade to better bushing just wasn't sure if whiteline was my only choice. Im fine with a little harahnesss to get better...
