Lol...cuz i've had a personality change...I don't know...

Bump for the season

so there's really no reason to change the PCM out with an MTX swap then, other than the torque lockup check engine light.

I bet it's the input bearing giving out. Just my .02c

Finished my MTX swap and just got back from a quick run and found out my ATX PCM revs to 6,700 rpm. It hits 6,500 and goes a little past then it cuts the engine. Is that normal? I thought and have always thought we needed to switch to a MTX PCM to get a higher shift. Mine is a 2000 PCM so..... _____...

they ship? if they do ima call them

Sorry for the late response I don't get on much anymore. Yes they shipped them direct to my door.

Okay a feew more shots of the exterior, pardon the battle scars. http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f14/neonnytes/1.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f14/neonnytes/3.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f14/neonnytes/4.jpg http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f14/neonnytes/2.jpg http://i44.photobuc...

Not too familiar with powder coating. So I should leave it rough? Say 500 grit?

Took some pics today but they all turned out like crap because of the lighting. Here are a couple of my new R/T sideskirts. You get the idea.

Well I was impatient and used the SOS pad with great results. Very smooth adhesion primer coat, base coat and finally Upol #1 clear. I'll have pics up later after polishing. As far as the SOS pad goes I didn't get scratches deeper than 1000 grit would have done. If it chips off later, which I doubt,...

Its just a standard SOS pad that you find in the grocery store with the blue soap.

This may help someone one the how to part. It sure didn't help me. LOL. But this is Mopar's instructions.

All that and yeah I'm giving it the "shiney" polish too. Then coating it gloss black.

I ran out of 600 grit to prep before using primer on my new urethane parts. Can a commercial SOS pad work to give the primer something to bite into? Need help fast or wife will kill me.

Okay been doing a bunch of stuff on the Neon so here are a couple of teasers. MUCH more to come. Sorry about pic quality I only had my cell for these but you get the idea. Wonder what Mother Mopar sent me now. http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f14/neonnytes/menewpart.jpg Nope. This is not it but a w...

Pics?

Guess I'll just go with an 03+ steering wheel but the airbags that are always sold separately are sooooo damn expensive. I hate the pre 03 steering wheels.

Yeah the airbag did it's job that's my point. I was going to get an aftermarket steering wheel but after watching this video...ouch!

Here's how it ended up. Wood shards and WD40 spray. Popped it off with some healthy swings of the ole hammer. Done. Now to check endplay and turning torque.

Well got the 3.94 tranny swap in the works. Had to swap bellhousings to a cable clutch style so need to check differential bearing endplay and turning torque. Ring gear bolts were a bitch to get off without an impact wrench so I had Rene's Automotive Center help and he did it for free. Props out. No...

Crap! Dodgeparts contacted me and they can't get them in. SHIT!!!

Wow! Neons.org is in majority for keeping the eylids and 2gn.org is in majority for the racoons. Man I hate deciding for myself. Thanks for the feedback. Sideskirts coming in a week or so.

So last night I got the idea to scrape all the black off the back the Dodge emblem, wetsand everything smooth and color match it from the back to the rest of the car.

Powdercoat them. It looks 10x better. I liked the chrome look too. Just a personal opinion. Would love to see it all installed though before I decide.

Center caps stolen. Gives it a spoon look now.

I'll have to go with ugly. Not powdercoated or polixhed.
