This is about the only thing some of you have not added that could make yours even better….

My replacement for the DS Unit….

I want to plug it into a computer and see what it does before I install it. The new version is cool looking….

Has to be on the car powered up to communicate with it, at least mine did.

Right front suspension seems to have sagged a bit (previously hit a brick at high speed on that side and bent the wheel).

The ride height difference between left and right is about 1 cm. The mechanic pulled both front struts apart and inspected them. The damper cartridges look fine; with the springs unloaded, their free lengths are almost identical.

After swapping the springs side-to-side, the height difference is still 7 mm. Now I’m not sure where else to look — the mechanic suspects the springs may have collapsed. Any suggestions on what specific areas to check next?[shakehands]

Also, my poor driveshaft — looks like the boot is busted, and the grease inside shot its load all over the place.[hihi]

Put the front lift/jacking pads on the challenger. I have had them on my charger for 6 years and it is one best mods if you are jacking the car up a lot like changing tires or oil changes. Much easier to get to then going to the frame. Put lock tight on the screws. Almost lost the ones on the charger for not doing that. Should have done this years ago. I got a set for dads T/A at Christmas. These came from Amazon and fit perfect. $28

Today I used up some of the gas that was bought on 5-23-25.

But first I had to replace the '18 battery.

Spent 2 hours cleaning it
Went for a 50 mile ride
Looks like shit again
Black
Stays clean about 3 minutes

As everyone knows the brake dust on the front wheels after 50 miles is crazy

It don t help the car seems to keep on going with my foot off the pedal
Acts like its stuck on a high idle when I coast but when I put it in neutral the RPM drops
Been like that since day 1

I descended about 2,500 feet in less than 10 miles on a very curvy road yesterday, tapped the brakes twice.
Paddle shifters are our friend.
