66 Barracuda top shock mount spinning
By acavdragoon
Replacing the shocks on my 1966 Barracuda, got 3 installed without a hitch then the 4th one is giving me problems. The rear top mount is spinning, can’t get the nut off. Not enough room to get vice grip on it or anything else. What options do I have to get it off? Tight quarters up in there, do I need to drop the gas tank to get a better position to attack it? There has to be a way to tighten that mounting bolt to keep it from spinning?
I bought a Whale, now I gotta build it and use it
By wngrog
Last month I took my faithful 1998 100 series up to North Carolina to my daughter for the summer. I did the Georgia Traverse and explored a few days and came to the conclusion that driving a modern Land Cruiser is much less stressful on long trips than all the old junk I tend to take on these adventures. I spent 3 days scheming on what to do to get my 190,000 mile, Slee “yes” package 100 series back from my daughter. Once I met her in North Carolina she vehemently vetoed my plan to... Read more

Odd comparison but why CX-30 over EQA?
By raspberry27
For 26k I can get a 2024 CX-30 AWD at 40k miles 65k kilometres with the European 2.5NA 191hp engine or 2023 EQA300 4MATIC but at 60k miles/100k km. The EQA is expected to be more quiet/stable on the highway at 75mph but is it really better. The badge says it should be but if Mazda is outperforming expectations and Mercedes is underperforming can they meet in the middle in noise/stability on the highway. The car will be driven 90% on the highway and will stay in the garage 2-3 weeks at a... Read more

1988 Volvo 740 Carburetor Adjustments
By (insert name here)
I have a new-to-me Volvo 740. It's a 1988 with a carburetor and an automatic transmission. This is the ID tag on my carburetor: The car was deregistered in 2013, but based on the odometer, was still used in some small capacity during at least part of that time prior to my purchase of it this month. The car is drivable and does great on the highway, but the carburetor needs work for around-town driving. I'm familiar with carburetors, but not the Pierburg 2B family, so I'm... Read more
High Beam Piggy Back? 2016+
By SEAWOLF
Does anyone use a high beam piggy back adapter for front spot/flood lights? I’d like to install floods on my front bumper, with an OEM style switch near left knee. So that when the switch is turned ‘on’ the floods will turn on and off with the high beams. But, if only highway driving, it can be disabled simply by turning it off using the OEM style switch. I believe this product will achieve my goal, but I’m not 100% Anyone know of a US based supplier? Looking to... Read more

Heritage grille part number?
By NY2LA
Anyone have any idea how to differentiate Heritage parts when ordering online? I want to buy a second grille for my Heritage Edition after doing a less than perfect job with some custom painting. But I can't figure out how to identify the Heritage grille from all the other grilles at the various parts shops. All the parts have the same generic grille diagram.
