I also reccomend Kicker DS40 for a quality budget 4" speaker. I thought they were blown for awhile, but I found it was stuff in the dash and trim in the back rattling! they do have a bit of a bass kick to them which is nice but I'm still looking to throw in a small sub because of the road noise and longevity of the speakers.

Do those speakers sound better than the stock ones?
Do the speaker grilles fit with the new speakers installed?

Yesterday I installed a new headunit and some nice 4in speakers to go in the stock locations. Only have the fronts installed right now.
JL Audio C2-400x Speakers and an Alpine CDE-133BT Headunit

They still have to loosen the spindle to install the shim but it came apart a lot easier=less time=less labor charge.

The only way to do it is to shim the spindle for camber and toe....pretty easy.

I wouldn't go by just that, but it is a place to start...

Cleaning and fixing my flooded red sedan festiva/pride. Took advantage of the heat of the sun today for my washed carpet and seats.

mrghost, I saw you needed an axle stub. A member has one for sale here. I almost bought it on general principles. The ones that know they are hard to find. I have a couple spares already though.

Thanks Neighbor!
Maybe you'll see me around some. I'll be visiting my girlfriend in Olathe, KS every once in awhile. I usually take the train from Jefferson City, but I might just drive the Festy now!

Festiva On, Praf.
I over looked the Escort M/C when I replaced mine about 6 months ago. Used a stock one.

Me and a buddy replaced the brake booster and master cylinder today. Had to take a couple hours off work to get it done, but they are about to leave for a week so I needed to do it today. Replaced the stock MC with the Escort GT Auto one. Worked out nice. Then took it by the shop to have it inspected again. Guy just sat down in the car pressed on the brake and said, "Wow, yeah, that will work!" Finally swung by the DMV and got it licensed and registered! I'm officially driving the Festiva now!
