Well, I've got a 2006 Sebring 2.7 V6 with 128,000 miles. I guess I have had it; I haven't changed any timing chains/tensioners gaskets or whatever.

Get some springs out of a Daytona Shelby if possible. They are a high rate spring and keep rear from sitting lower than front. I'm using them in an 88 Shadow with the standard front springs.
I get 21 to 23 mpg around town. My drive to work is 6 to 7 miles and I don't go out of town much with it as it is for work. I also have the turbo fuel pump in the car. The original fuel pump got...
I have the rear springs off a Daytona Shelby on the rear of an 88 Shadow. I wouldn't say it is hard. It does keep the rear from setting way down in the rear when you load the car with stuff. Ride...
A little heat with a small propane torch will help. I had the same problem and that's how I got it out with an easy out
I've got the 6" crabs on 11" brakes. The brakes are the 91 up brakes. I've also had the 6" on the earlier big brakes (1990) and had no problems.
89 and 90 are different computers/harness. 88 and 89 are the same electronics. You need a 90 up harness/computer to run it. That will be your biggest chore. Engine/turbo will be the easy part.
I switched in the 91 and later front brakes into an 88 Shadow. However, I bought standard brake hoses from NAPA that fit a 93 Daytona that the brakes came out of. I didn't have any problem. Are...
Some of the things you describe (twitchy and steering moving under acceleration) are what I was having with a 90 Daytona. The whole front end had polybushings and new struts but it still didn't feel...
If you have the 88 Shadow I had the same thing happen. The welded nuts break loose and are tough to get up under the car. I changed up to the 90 model k frame. The bolts that hold the steering...
I've got a 69 Barracuda which I put front disc brakes on. The booster I put in with it was bad (parts from a junked car) so I pulled the vacuum hose off.. Instant manual brakes! I've been driving...
The T2 SMEC will work. I've got a T2 in an 88 Shadow which is a T1. Keep in mind the injectors are bigger in a T2. I'm running the T1 injectors but I'm not trying to hammer it either. I had to do...
I used razor blade where there is no grid on a Daytona; mainly to get the tint started pulling off. Some hair dryer heat doesn't hurt as long as you use enough just to warm the tint. Goo Gone takes...
I've got to agree with these other guys. Neon 5 speed is easier to change than in a Shadow. I've changed one in a Neon and it's really pretty easy going in and out from below. No problems lining...
Bought some crab wheels from 89turbodude. Wheels were as advertised; in fact actually better to me than what he advertised. Good luck on your car.
This is the way the factory manual says do it. I did it this way on a Shadow recently. But everything had just been put in because I had reworked head and had a new head gasket. Nothing was seized...
PM sent also.
The slow part could be from a poor ground. I just changed out bushings on mine and I also found the ground wasn't making good contact. I cleaned it up and it sped back up. I don't know what the...
OK. Email me at mckay_mike@yahoo.com or pm me. I'll get you some information on getting them and payment. I've got a relative in Jacksonville you can take them to.
Thanks!
Do you know if they are 6" or 6 1/2" width? Are you going to take the tires off or not?
Thanks
Where you located in Florida?

Only reason I voted not interested is because I already have one!
I've got two Sebring convertibles, 1st and 2nd generation. I've never had a problem with the seats sticking on either one. I'm not sure if you are talking about the seat back or the power part.
