    Hard Start Gen 3

    Have you tried different batteries as well? I've had a couple issues in the past where I'd drop low enough on the voltage when cranking that it would reset my trip meter, but I think I also may have had an ASD fuse that was on the way out. Even when it dropped that low though I don't recall...

    RB1 Head unit navigation antenna?

    Have any specific recommendations? Just kind of curious what all you've seen and if any stand out as being more reliable than others.

    Rear toe change per turn?

    Oh, you mean how much the toe changes with one rotation of the link? Sorry, I was thinking of the toe change as the wheel cycled up and down. That wouldn't be in the manual. You can kind of calculate it, but I'm trying to recall what it was when I did my last alignment. I think the threading...

    My Viper continues to hate me

    I think the recommendation for rake is 3/4" higher in the rear, at least as far as track and suspension setup goes. Maybe not as important on the street, but that's the number that comes to mind for me at least from what I've heard in the past.

    Rear toe change per turn?

    I believe that should be in the service manual, but maybe they only have it for the front. What generation are you looking for?

    RB1 Head unit navigation antenna?

    I got one with my radio and just stuck it under the dash above the center console vents. Seems to work okay there. I don't think it's strictly necessary, especially if you don't even plan to use the software. The harder part nowadays is finding a good disc that the radio will even read. The...

    Removing Mopar power Control Unit

    There should still be a little tab you have to press once you unlock it for it to release from the connector. I believe on your pictures it would be just to the left of the red locking parts. Try pressing in on the black portion just to the left of that once they are unlocked and wiggle them a...

    My Viper continues to hate me

    My 04 is probably somewhere between 0.25-0.5" lower than stock if I remember correctly and I haven't really had much for issues. Still have to be careful, but it's also pretty flat where I live.

    My Viper continues to hate me

    Look at it this way, at least it happened while it was at the shop on the rack and not while you were driving. ***** either way though.

    Dash vent popping up, any fix?

    I know some time ago there was a TSB about defroster vent noise. The solution was to trim some of the vent, though I can't recall if it was the grille portion or the vent tube under it. Basically as it heated up they would touch each other or something like that. I wonder if maybe someone...

    Dash vent popping up, any fix?

    I had my entire dash assembly out several years ago to look at a blend door issues in the HVAC box. The upper portion of the dash it glued down to the main structure under it. On mine the front edge was starting to lift, so I tried gluing it back down with some spray adhesive, but I'm not sure...

    Reverse gear - effort to engage

    There is a solenoid that locks out reverse that is based on speed. It's spring loaded so you can push through it in emergencies, but it sounds like maybe you have a loose plug or something. Normally it's supposed to open under 3-5 mph I believe. Guessing when you dropped the trans that maybe...

    03 Viper OEM Speaker Replacement Specifications?

    I'm currently running a set of Kicker 6.5" speakers. They are a straight drop in for the factory mounting holes and fit behind the stock grilles as well. I don't know if they sound any better than stock as my car never had stock speakers in it since I got it, but I am running them with a...

    Upsize alternator wiring?

    My bad, I forgot to check which forum this was in. Gen 2 would have been electric from the get-go, so I would hope they would have accounted for it. I did learn that the factory 60s wiring for the puny 40-60 amp alternators is not up to the task of a modern 100+ amp alternator though, lol...

    The Quest for 275 MPH

    Do you think the wagging could be a vertical stabilizer kind of thing? Guessing a little more downforce in general wouldn't hurt, but at those kind of speeds having some lateral aero stability is probably also important. Admittedly I know very little about the field, just some of the stuff...
