    power problem

    I too have recently had a similar problem. The altenator is really easy to pull just two bolts a wire harness and a belt. Takes all of 10 min. Take it to your parts store they will be able to test it right there.

    Lowering/Sport springs for 2.3

    The lowering height of the car is not my main concern. The damn thing handles like a boat and waddles like a cow. My stock springs are compressed and I am looking at aftermarket sport springs for about the same price as new OEM springs. I have added sway bars and they help a ton but it is now...
