Hi LMR I need a set of fog lights for my 00 lightning: Mine are cracked. Also my head & taillights are darkened (fogged?) - do you have some to match? Lastly - do you have anew steering wheel available too? Mine is well worn! I also need to ship to Dubai - is this possible...

I need some opinions on a clone project I had in mind. I have a 00 Lightning with some nice cosmetic work on it (looks great) such as lowered suspension, rims, etc but its got 140K mileage and has spend more than 70% of its last year off the road with weekly maintenance issues which has been...

I have recently done some upgrades to my 00 L - namely adding a plenum and TB plus 4lb pulley which included a new belt. The new belt however seems quite loose - it can be fairly easily bent with a thumb and forefinger near the SC and is nowhere as tight as the belt at the bottom on the...

Hi gents I saw a post a while back of a Truck with and without Traction bars. The video was one of these: With: No traction bars - YouTube Without: Traction bars/proper preload/on bottom hole of front bracket - YouTube I was well impressed at the difference but had some...

I have an '00 L with the JDM 3# pulley, CAI intake and tune combo and its incredibly tame to say the least. The car makes 10# boost but may have a slipping belt although I am not sure. The truck is in good condition but the motor has 141K miles on it which I hope to swop out in the next year or...

If I understand correctly Lightnings have a dual chip system so 2 tunes can be applied. Is it possible to have one fast 450 - 500rwhp tune and another "valet" tune so if for example my wife uses the car I can switch it to a more basic setup that wont have her frying the tires or sending the...

Any suggestions to improve braking without "braking" the bank? I have stock brakes and hawk pads and braking is ok but as hp is increased surely stopping power needs to be increased too? What about improving rear brake system?

I think my L is suffering from the dreaded Belt Slip. As I am doing some purchases from Magnum Powers, I was considering picking up an Idler bracket and belt tensioner too. Will this solve the problem? Also, what belt will I need then & where do I get one? I am running a 3' Lower. I...

I am looking at an MP s/c case and was wondering if its worth doing on a stock block at all. I am going built sometime next year so was just assimilating parts (they had a Chriostmas special on) but wondered if there would be any major benefit to add it on the stocker. Also here is what MP...

Anyone upgraded their cooling systems? I see a lot of different HE's on the market, some with fans, some with dual pass, some cars with extra coolant tanks, killer chiller but cant seem to find any write ups on which route to go. Can anyone advise which is the most cost effective way to...

I am just researching built transmissions for an 00 L and was wondering a few things: * Who makes the best ones? Or best bang for buck - I dont want to break the bank. * Do you always have to do a core swap (I live in Dubai so this will be tricky) * Can they include a stall converter? * Is...
