    Reverse light wiring.

    Thanks eaks, I finally figured out what you were telling me. I followed the factory wiring then went forward under the soft top mechanism. I covered all the new wire with split tube protection and dropped it down near the rear door post and under the carpet behind the drivers seat. I crossed the...

    Reverse light wiring.

    eaks, I installed the rear camera in the trunk lid and followed the factory wiring attached to the lid till it disappears in a 1 1/2” hole in the top of the left rear fender. Would you happen to remember where the wiring goes after that and where access to the “back carpet” is? Thanks, Bill

    Reverse light wiring.

    You are right, I was just being lazy, test light worked fine. Now I need a suggestion of where to cut an access hole to get the camera cable from the trunk to the cabin behind the seats. Or, ideas from anyone who has installed a back up camera. (Not wireless) my Viper is a 2005 Vert. Thanks, Bill

    Reverse light wiring.

    Anyone know the wire colors of the reverse light in the left tail light unit? Looking for the pos wire and the neg wire. I’m installing a backup camera. Thanks, Bill

    Gen 4 ball joint and control arm question

    I did bring my 05 Vert to the shop on last Thursday, the ball joints were all OK. Still looking for the noise source in the rear when I hit a bump. Wet weather slowing things down. Bill

    Gen 4 ball joint and control arm question

    i’m getting a knocking noise from the rear when hitting any size bump in my 05 Vert. Checked all bolts tight, exhaust tight and not moving, new shocks installed. Can anyone tell me the best way to see if it’s a bad ball joint, I’ve been chasing this noise for a while. Thanks, Bill

    Aftermarket side pipes

    My side pipes are swiveling up and down when hitting bumps and the turnouts are hitting the black surround material. The retaining bands are smooth stainless so they slip. Would small tack welds on each side of the bands work? Your thoughts on the idea, suggestions? Thanks, Bill

    2005 exhaust question

    When I bought my2005 Vert seven years ago I was told that the H pipe had been removed and an aftermarket exhaust system installed. my question is how do I identify the installed system? Are different brands stamped or have labels welded on? I have some rattling around in the sidepipe area and...

    Street tires

    I need some advice on tires. I want to buy the softest best riding tires for my 05 Vert. Tired of being thumped by every crack or tar strip I drive over. I don’t do track days, only an occasional hard run thru the gears. I’m approaching 80 years old and I’d like to soften the ride a bit. I don’t...

    Have anybody used partsrack to buy 3.55 gears from them?

    Yes, get all the fluids too. I bought the 3:55 and the carrier, spider gears etc. had chunks of metal in the rearend due to over use by the previous owner. Jon found a rebuilt unit and shipped it in 2 days. Good experience with Jon.
