    94 RT/10 clunk on accel/decel

    There was a TSB (Tehcnical Service Bulletin) a few years ago on this very thing, I believe. If you look at the ladder bar connection (bolts) to the rear end, I think you will see that there has been some slippage where the bolts loosened up on the ladder bar and it slides back and fourth under...

    Dodge 5 Star Dealer service is great! NOT!!!..

    We have a 5 star dealership here in Hastings, MI that has changed hands 3 times in the last 4 or 5 years. Think I will bring the Viper there for service? NOT! I go to a little county dealership that is also rated as a 5 star dealership, and they truly are. Their technicians are long time...

    Gingerman Raceway: 72 Vipers, one Prevost, and a lounge Chair

    Yeah, and my grandson and I got up at 4:00 am that Sunday to go to MIS for one lap with the Viper, watch some roundy round racing from some outfit called NASCAR, get decals stuck on the hood and doors of my car for the Sirius satellite radio network, and nearly froze to death in the process...

    Cleaning Off Bug Splats

    I have a Mopar bra on the front of the '94, and it works well. However, the buggers fit in between the sceen on the front and still splatter on the grill a bit. But it does save a lot of cleaning. I use Simple Green at about a 20:1 cut with water in an old empty spray bottle and it works...

    need advice on buying a 94 viper

    Look for dings on the rims, exhaust outlets, easy to do on the Viper, especially on right hand turns, hit curbs, ding wheels and or exhaust. If you get the serial number from the owner, you can go to a good local Dodge dealership, and they can run the records up for you on the car to see if it...

    NIGHTMARE!!!

    To add to the nightmare, all the carts have a left front wheel that shakes back & forth like the cart needs alignment, ...... and the wheels all squeak! Hey, you must have gotten the carts from our local K-Mart or grocery store.

    Last Sunday pictures of Viper Parade at MIS

    I thought that Zak would like to go to the MIS race instead of the Gingerman Viper Days, but next time, it's VIPER DAYS! You don't need a pit pass or anything to go and talk with the crews, drivers, etc. However, I have to say that if it were not for the VCA being there with the food, coffee...

    Last Sunday pictures of Viper Parade at MIS

    Here are some pictures of the MIS Viper Parade from last Sunday. Was it ever a cold, grey day. I took our grandson with me, and he was my official photographer for the day. Don't think I would ever go back to a NASCAR race in person, it is more interesting on TV. The one lap around the track...

    Fix for clunk when shifting

    Brought the '94 to my local friendly Dodge dealer tonight, because it was making a clunking noise at times when I shifted up or down. The Viper tech, Kelvin, and I went out for a test drive, and as soon as he heard the sound, he had an idea what it was right away. Got back to the dealer, put...

    Big Block chevy conversion

    Heck, Drop in a Mopar big block 440 crate motor from Mopar Performance, there are some mountain motors that MP makes in their catalog, that run over 550 c.i. and make over 600 or so horse power for fairly reasonable prices, and that's with one four bbl carb, if I remember right.

    Whatever You Do Dodge Please.....

    Agreed! Although I will never be able to afford to "touch" a 2003 or newer Viper, all Vipers,including the GenI, GenII and the new GenIII, are akin to what the Rolling Stones were singing about in the song "Emotional Rescue!" Any form of the Viper is a remarkable car that can really bring out...

    1993 first crack in hood

    I have started on what I understand is a long trek to see if Dodge will do anything to fix the cracks in my hood. So far, the Zone Manager has verbally refused to do anything, but I will meet him at the dealership when he goes there this month. This was a known defect from the get go on the...

    Car Cover to RT/10, where?

    JP, get the Mopar RT/10 Viper cover. It is well worth the money, and does a great job.

    Re: Who\'s in the parade at MIS for NASCAR!!!!???! We made the deadline, got confirmation this morning! Looking forward to meeting up with a bunch of you guys, seeing a great race, and the parade lap around MIS is awesome. That track is so steep in the turns that you think you are going to...

    Bummer, The weather can change in an instant here in West Michigan, Now they are forecasting rain, and temps only in the mid 50's! not very attractive for a car show. If it rains, we won't go. Too much work on the car to have it destroyed by the weather. Gen 1 RT/10's are not known for their...

    Just noticed stress cracks in hood

    Com'on guys, hasn't anybody had this happen to them? This looks like it could be costly, I need some help here. Is this a crack right though the hood down to the support underneath? What is the fix? I don't even want to close the hood anymore for fear of just making it worse! I have never...

    Just noticed stress cracks in hood

    Here is a picture of one of them. There are two now, one on either side of the hood. They are right at the hood reinforcement areas. I wanted to clean the car up for a show this weekend, and what a surprise, haven't ever noticed them before, they just now popped up. Can this be fixed, are...

    Just curious, has anyone with an Arrow Rebuild had anymore engine trouble?

    Almost afraid to ask, but I am really curious. It seems that no one who has had their engine rebuilt by Arrow, (especially the Gen 1 engines is what I am curious about), has posted anymore problems. I hope this is true, but would love to hear any comments.

    Gen I & II Prices going to skyrocket?

    OK, Here is my 2 Cents worth. The Viper is a throwback to the muslecar era. Almost any 25 year old or older musclecar is worth a ton more than what it went for when it was new. They were driven, (most of them), but they still held their value if they were taken care of. Some of theose...

    1994 "Mystery Switch"

    Re: 1994 \"Mystery Switch\" It only works as a driver ejection seat switch for anybody who installs a neon light that flashes with the music in their Viper. Otherwise it is for a fog light on the European Vipers. I think Jon B forgot about that one, must have skipped over it in the manual.

    Re: Here\'s what I\'m paying for tires...stop me if I\'m making a big mistake... I just got the two rears (Michelin Pilot Sports) for right at 688 from Sears, including tax, mounting and balancing. Now these are 17" tires. I have noticed a difference in the way the car tracks already, (big...
