• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Thanks Bob. Its 11.99 for the part but 22.00 for shipping at Pro caliber. Have to look around for less shipping any ideas? And is it something I can do? Not too well versed but do own oil changes brakes and the easy stuff. Did find one for 13.69 shipping so will go with them if not to hard to do.
