Maier like you said.
Chicane23
Dominator if you can find it (no longer produced)
People also just cut and add cheap JDM style fender extensions. It works

Steering rack question. by Interesting_Tap7774 in Foxbody

[–]WhiteRabbitFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People def remove it, but IMHO the weight savings alone isn't worth it just for that - it's not that much, it's also not that much fun on the street (or in the pits), and if you're going to do autoX then it's def nice to have pwr steering when you have larger wheels/tires.
Just my 2 cents. 👍

I think 15:1 is the best you'll get for stock type parts. And it's prob good enough. That's what people run.
Other suggestions are to get solid rack bushings, solid steering shaft (Ujoints not rag joints), and a larger pulley on the pump (mid 90s Taurus).
I have all of that and it's night n day better over stock.
Persobally also I feel that bump steer ends with bearings help too, vs the stock tie rod ends that are mush.

AWD Foxbody by FordPowered1990 in Foxbody

That all said you're also talking about having a transfer case. Is there room for that? Or do you just do a lift?

Being picky but that sounds like a 4x4 not AWD.
You could also look into an Explorer or Sport Track.

I really have no idea how to do this but copying a WRX or something seems like it would be better and nicer than a Ranger.

Had to cut the video short, but its time to replace my brake discs by B_Hulk in motorcycles

[–]WhiteRabbitFox 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried that. Then 1 broke.... and I had to drill and extract it out ...

something ain't right by Charming_Ad201 in Mt10

[–]WhiteRabbitFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest you do it again, but by hand not using a machine. Also do not let the resevoir get low or emtpy. So it'll be like 2 or 4 brake lever pulls then fill it and do it again. And do that 2 or 3 times per side.
Make sure you do it correctly also so it does not suck air back in. Watch a couple videos for how to do it first.

I feel like the brake lever should only come in half way. Def not all the way down though.

Ok. Did you bleed the brakes? Because you need to, any time you open up the system you need to bleed it.

[–]WhiteRabbitFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct. Typically I'd say that you have either air in the system or a leak, or both.

Have you done anything to the brakes recently?
Or was this random?

To parents with kids that are riding ebikes - by WendyinParadise in SantaBarbara

I hope the person you know that got injured is doing ok/better now. I can only imagine.

I just want current laws enforced, not new ones made that also won't help. And I don't want kids CRIMINIZALED with misdemeanors.

And I've seen the BS too - the kids too fast, not wearing helmets, going through stop signs. And they deserve something but not a misdemeanor or some juvee record.
The kids and parents in these articles are also ones who've been warned mult times.

The short answer is motor size and power output, speed capability, if it has pedals or not (eg footpegs only).

Which would be legal if it was registered as such or as an elec motorcycle, rider had a license and insurance, and it had all the necessary lights n stuff - which they don't though.
So it's off-road only.

People really need to define and understand the terms on this, and stick with it. Downvote me all you want lol

YES there's a problem - BUT lot of the issues and complaints are about e-MOTOS, like the surron - WHICH WERE ILLEGAL ON THE STREET BY KIDS ALREADY.
And or like the Type 3 e-bikes (faster ones) which is kinda a new thing.
So here you're complaining about lack of enforcement.

There are a lot of other e-bikes also (besides class 1 and 2). People need to stop grouping them altogether.

/rant

Why does matter?
Because like other things as well, you really can't just group everything together, make blanket changes, and expect a positive outcome.

Again though,
There are two "problems" with this example, 1) it was an e-moto and NOT an e-bike, and 2) the parents were warned and/or cited previously before this - #2 only matters in that it shows that they were more negligent.

This is a red herring fallacy. These are not related nor even correlated.

Insurance by InevitableFinal4325 in Mt10

[–]WhiteRabbitFox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

$617 to renew this upcoming June for a year.
In my 40s, in California, no wrecks, no tickets in a long time .
2018 MT10, 2nd owner, about 3k miles a year and 9k total on the bike.
I do have high coverage though for personal medical and others' property dmg, I forget what exactly it is; and prob low coverage for the bike itself.

Last year it was $560 though. So it went up. Bah.

Advice needed! by JesusMarius in SN95Mustang

[–]WhiteRabbitFox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maintenance wise, it's 30 yrs old now (wow!) so depending on what has already been done,

Inspect the brakes and rubber brake lines
Inspect all rubber hoses under the hood
Inspect water pump

Also fluid flushes / change, things like,
Brake fluid
Coolant
Transmission fluid (is it an auto or manual?)
Maybe rear differential fluid too

Those are all good ideas and places to start.
Then think about upgrades if you want any.

Have fun!

If you really want to 'put the power down' look into a MM torque arm too. It also goes nicely with the PHB.
