    WTB: Sy Bumper Cover Bracket

    Had some work done at a local garage and only later discovered they didn't re-install the bracket on my Sy. :tdown: The is the small "Z" shaped bracket for the right front bumper cover, located just in front of the wheel well. Does anyone have a spare for sale?

    For the SyTyer who has everything..

    Nothin' better than a gently used heater core :)

    Good Source for Custom Battery Cables

    I've had the battery relocated to the bed of my Sy for several years now with no issues. Started to raise the truck on the lift and suddenly it's the 4th of July in April. Apparently the chassis torqued and twisted enough to short the old battery cable in between the frame and passenger fender...

    Sy Idle - Getting Better

    The hot idle on my Sy began getting erratic recently, missing and going lean to the point of near stall on occasion. We had changed the distributor out a month ago to fix a no-start problem, and the truck had been running ok until now. I finished the tune up yesterday with new plugs and wires...

    Running Again! Was: Sy Won't Stay Running

    Quit just 1/8th mile from the house this morning. Truck had started fine and rolled out onto the street without issues, then stalls without warning when I began accelerating. Cranks, fires, and dies almost immediately. CEL and Check Gauges lights. Has fuel in tank. :) ECM A and B fuses look...

    Sy Sway Bar End Link Repair Question

    One of my anti-sway bar end link bolts has backed out about half way and stripped the receiving threads in the lower control arm. Looks like I'll be drilling through the control arm and dropping a bolt through to repair the problem. On first inspection, the top side of the control arm surface...

    Key Alarm Sounding w/ No Key Inserted

    So Mona comes in from the garage and says the Typhoon is making a weird noise. I hadn't driven it in weeks, so I'm thinking it must be something else in the garage. Hmm, it is the Ty. Open the door to hear a very weak, intermittent buzzing sound near the steering column. It appears to be a...

    WTB: Stock Tail Lights

    ..for my 93 Ty. The truck had fortezza's when I bought it. Switched to clears which look great in the daytime, a little cheezy at night. So anyone have some originals in excellent condition to sell? And if any interest in either of mine, let me know.

    Thanks RPM!

    I meant to post this a while ago but got distracted with the Miami meet activities. :) Santa was very kind this year and left a bunch of SyTy stuff that he (she) knew I would want/need. When the parts arrived from RPM, the AFPR on the order was actually a fuel pump for an import - messed up...

    Racing Insurance

    Recent NY Times article provides useful information on insuring your truck for racing. It seems the insurance companies have been working to close existing loopholes in defining racing - so you may not be covered under your existing policy. The article also provides a few purpose-written...

    Sold: R/R Typhoon Cladding

    This is a used fiberglass piece that came off my Typhoon. I recently bought an OEM replacement from TBone, so this one is now available. The piece is in good but not perfect condition. As shown in the pictures, the leading edge has a small paint chip, and the underside some minor road rash...

    WTB: Passenger Seat Belt Retractor

    Opened Up the Transfer Case..

    that I got from Gary S. This one has an unknown history so we weren't sure what to expect inside. This was also the first time any of us have been inside a TC, so it was both a learning and a discovery expedition: First up we counted up the number of spines (32) and figured that this was a...

    Front Bumper Alignment: Solved!

    Ok, so my recent addition 93 ty came with a badly mis-aligned front bumper cover - the passenger side looked as if maybe it had been tapped and there was very little gap between the top of the cover and the front grill on that side. I got under the truck and tried adjusting the front and side...

    Need Fix for Rattling Door Control Rods

    Did a search and closest match was Mike C's write up for the replacement window clips. My issue is with the door control rods and not the window. I've tried foam 'deadening' blocks wedged in at various locations to remove the vibration, but it only resulted in moving the source of the noise to...

    There's a New Ty in Town!

    New to me anyway. After on-and-off again searching, I brought home 93 Ty#1725 yesterday. Started to put together the "punch list" of issues to address, but overall it appears to be in great shape. :tup:
