The rotor fills up the rim diameter really close to the edge. The caliper is centered on the rotor and needs some space to mount up over the rotor. This requires additional space to clear the caliper inside the wheel. I hope this makes sense the way I am explaining this.
Maybe call their tech support and tell them what you have happening. I have a Sniper 2 and so far it has been great. I am not sure if the MSD system has a reset procedure, sometimes you can basically erase the memory and reset. Do you have the information manual or instructions?
Reading your post I was wondering what the shop was doing to your car. Sounds like you had several issues after the shop worked on it. Did they do the install and initial setup? Or just an oil change and screw up your car?
Any shop that works on these cars better know what they are doing...
The factory rod setup uses a long spring on the throttle that goes forward to help bring the lever back forward when the throttle is moving back to idle. The cable setup puts the spring on the bottom and pulls the lever instead of pushing. Really makes it smoother and adjustable from the top...
Mine seems to be one to one and works great. The cable stop on the end of each cable allows you to make very fine adjustments without changing the one to one, just a very small change directly affects the transmission shift points and partial kick down.
I started out with setting up the cable...
The rod pushes the lever on the transmission back when the throttle is moving and the cable comes in from behind the lever and pulls it back while the throttle moves back. This cable has smooth movement and the adjustable cable end up on the top instead of trying to adjust the length of the rod...
I had issues with the kick down linkage when I first put on the Sniper and then got rid of the clunky linkage with a Lokar throttle and kick down cable set up. Now I can change the settings from the top end by moving the cable stop at the throttle.
One for the throttle and one for the kick down.
Welcome aboard from the Pacific Northwest. Those vans are really cool. I have had 2 over the years, one was the slant 6 w/ 3 on the tree and the other was the looonngg maxi with the single back door and had a 360 w/ 727. Miss both sometimes. Keep us updated as you progress. This site lives...
welcome aboard from the Pacific Northwest. Nice to see another 3rd gen Charger cruising around making everyone smile. Thanks for sharing the pics. Mine started life with a 318 and I finally got the 400 in after about 9 years and never looked back. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
Looks like you got a good deal. Welcome to the Mopar world and you will find all the information and lots of first hand tested tips and problem solving details here. These cars are worth all the effort and really get smiles to the miles.
Yes it’s a wrap. First one went 5 years without issues. Time for a change and it really protects the body from the elements. And it’s way less expensive than paint and all the other stuff.
Some people fail to understand that future adjustments, repairs or maintenance may require being able to reasonably access these parts. They simply can’t turn the page and actually think it through.
