They are shot. Going to pick up some Tokico's

Problem found. Previous owner had put on 99-00 struts. They use the shorter end link.

Thanks for the input guys I figure the previous owner cheaped out and put on the 99-2000 Monroe struts, but picked up some racing beat or MSP springs. I'll have to see if the Monroe's are shot, and if they are, then go to some Tokico HPs, and I can uses the Escape endlinks. (Do like the...

All I can see is Monroe on the strut. Edit. Found a part # 71586 on the mount that crosses to a 99 Protege. Wondering if the spring is aftermarket, and has a different height than stock that needed to be used with the 99 strut ? DSC02789 by quick72toy, on Flickr DSC02790 by quick72toy...

Trying to figure out what has been done with my front suspension. When I bought the car I knew it was modded, but never really looked at the suspension to closely. I now have to replace the endlinks (see http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?123806266-Stock-P5-swaybar-endlength-length)...

I'm really confused. I did some searching and found a couple of threads that state that the sway bar endlinks off a 2002 Ford Escape is a direct fit for the P5. I measured my old ones on myP5 and they are 7.5" The Fords are 10.5" ??? I also read the the P5's are supposed to be 10.5"? No way...

Thanks. I get wood every time I drive it :-)

I apologize in advance if this answer is right in front of me, but I can't seem to find it. Sway bar endlinks I found the 2002 Ford Escape solution for the front, but was wondering if there was an alternative to stock for the rear, for the P5, aside from the aftermarket adjustable stuff? This is...

Does the CEL actually have to come on when you have a code? I had to fix some stuff, and put a scanner on the car to pull the codes. There were two there, but my CEL never lit. (When I have the key on engine off, the check engine light lights up ok.) but has never lit up to indicate a code...

Thanks I just realized that the O2 sensor plugs into the manifold above the precat.(braindead I was thinking it plugged into the side of the cat. I should know this I just had everything off. (braindead

I just found that my precat suffered a meltdown at some point in its life, and is basically gutted. I was wondering how much effect it has on the 1st O2 sensor. Has anybody measured the AFR using a good precat vs a gutted precat, or header? Do you think the gutted cat would cause the O2 sensor...

My above post is confirmed.

Please forgive me guys new guy to this forum, but no stranger to cars and motors. From what I understand of a 4 stroke engine (intake, compression, power, exhaust) you can have two TDC marks. One will be at the top of the compression stroke, and the other will be at the top of the exhaust...
