Which pad is "better?" Ceramic or semi-metallic? by Nate Nagel[_2_]
Looking for experiences... Used ceramic on last brake job and am very happy with them. Need to buy brakes for another vehicle tomorrow, and when I called the parts store the guy said that semi-metallic were noisier and dustier but "would handle the heat better" if I were to use a vehicle for...

ID old mat logo? by Jules Richardson[_2_]
Just to satisfy my curiosity, can anyone ID this old vehicle logo: http://www.patooie.com/temp/logo.jpg I've no idea if it came from a car or truck, or how old it is. Googling hasn't turned up anything; I suppose it may have been unique to the floor mats, and not a maker's main logo or...

Material for battery terminal bolts? by Nate Nagel[_2_]
Hi all, am trying to "rust proof" a vehicle... when I got it the old battery had spewed acid everywhere and destroyed not only itself, but the coating on the hold down and all of the battery cables. I purchased replacement heavier gauge cables (cheaper than buying the ones from the dealer!)...

Repairing cracks in front plastic facia - will fiberglass resin "stick"? by MoPar Man
While I have the front facia off my '00 300m, I figure it's a good time to fix some cracks on the lower edge. I could rivit small pieces of sheet metal to bridge the cracks, but I'm wondering if fiberglass resin would "stick" or bond to this facia? Maybe if I roughened (sanded) it a little? What...

best Watts linkage attachment height? by [email protected]
The late 90s Falcon got improved handling by lowering the Watts linkage 20 mm below the centre of the diff. What would be the reason for this? I don't know of other cars with this setup. Even the Mustang has the crappy panhard rod. I looked at aftermarket Watts linkage kits, and one attaches at...

Any suggestions as to how I might remove a broken inter speedometer cable? It broke just 1.5" from the head end of the cable. The total cable assembly is available but the car is a 1969 classic Mini and the lower cable is a true dog to remove, so I would like to just replace the inter cable, if...

why are swaybars significantly thicker at the front? by [email protected]
I measured my swaybars, and have 26 mm front and 16 mm rear. Since torsional rigidity is proportional to fourth power of diameter, this means that the stiffness of the front bar is 7 times that of the rear. So only 1/8 of the anti-roll force is at the rear. Why is this? I have looked around, and in...

Tax, Title, And Registration ? by Bob[_53_]
Hello, When "negotiating" for a new car, is it normal that the agreed upon price include the tax, title, and registration costs, or are these 3 items always just assumed to be the buyers', and tacked on after the final overall price is "settled" upon ? Thanks, Bob
