  1. Max Mtrsprts and Pedders

    I did not take a pic but the tire was hitting the very bottom of the spring and the very top of the spring perch. It was about halfway down the sidewall where it was rubbing.

    Hi, Strengthrehab. Yup, I already tried the 18x10 without the spacer and with the wheel installed it rubbed so strongly against the coilover I was unable to spin the wheel at all. I bought 25mm bolt-on spacers. I am baffled...

    Hmmm... I have the 25mm spacers installed. The issue now is when I put on the 18x10 Team Dynamics wheel the wheel does not mate flat with the wheel spacer. Instead it hits the stock wheel lugs and is unable to be mounted properly... Do people change out their lugs for shorter aftermarket ones...

    Looks like I do have room for the spacers. Just bought the Eibach 25mm hubcentric ones. Very much appreciated! Track day at Watkins Glen in a week... :)
  5. 2012 Boss 302 - Pedders Coilover Major Clearance Issues with Front

    Hi, Kevo. Looks like there is no "real" slotting and the coilover is already tilted as far as it can go away from the tire. It was suggested that I purchase 25mm spacers and use those. Appreciate your response!
  6. 2012 Boss 302 - Pedders Coilover Major Clearance Issues with Front

    I am posting this in its own separate thread so people can be aware of the major issues I am having with my Pedders coilover suspension I purchased from American Muscle. I would also love to hear from anyone who has the Pedders coilover to see if I am the only one with issues or if others have...

    Hello again, everyone. Quick bad news updates on the Pedders coilover suspension. (1) Today I put my 18x10 wheels with 275/40-18 tires on. In front, the tires press tightly against the coilover and make it impossible to turn the wheels. (2) Looking closer at my stock Boss 302 19-inch wheels that...
  8. Max Mtrsprts and Pedders

    In the end American Muscle did take 100 off a 240 part so I am ok with that. My issues are 1. They have bad info on the website that influenced my purchase decision. 2. I am the one that was directed by AM to call Pedders. What should have happened is AM should have called Pedders and then...

    I have a 2012 Boss 302. I will take a closer look to see if anything needs to be opened up, thank you.

    What do you mean by "open up the shock towers"? Thx
  11. Max Mtrsprts and Pedders

    Hi, everyone. I bought the Pedders coilover kit from the American Muscle website. On that website in the q and a it states the maximum motorsports camber plates will work with the kit. They do not. American Muscle directed me to call Pedders and they confirmed there is no way the max plates...
  12. 2012 Boss 302 seized brakes

    DaveW you are right that I can drive the car and I do have solid braking power. It was where the car could not be pushed and the right front brake would make it so I could not turn the wheel when up in the air. When I brake there is a lot of vibration. I will change the rotors this week and look...
  13. 2012 Boss 302 seized brakes

    I will check that thanks!
  14. 2012 Boss 302 seized brakes

    Boss has been indoors for the long NY winter. Just came back inside from jacking the car up. Front right was stuck so, being me, I forced it to move and the disc is super pitted and scratched and still gets stuck. Will need to replace the disc's for sure.
  15. 2012 Boss 302 seized brakes

    Hello, everyone. I let my 2012 Boss 302 sit for an extended period of time and now it is locked in place because the front Brembos appear to be seized. I have seen various videos saying they need to be replaced or rebuilt. Just wanted to check with the experts here for advice. Thanks in advance.
