Hi Just want to stop by and introduce myself. I am a Retired Marine and aerospace engineer. I live in Fontana CA.
I bought a 2003 Marauder Black with dark grey interior. No sunroof, 6 disk cd, clock in the radio, traction control no map pockets in the seats, and non heated seats. It was built 01/03. The Vin # is 2MEHM75V03X66890. The stock wheels were replaced with 19” wheels all around with spacers out back. He also deleted the air bags and cut the front springs cause he liked the look. The ride was very rough to say the least. The overhead compass did not work. It needed a right rear anti skid sender so the anti skid and traction control did not work. I figure it has 410 gears cause it is pretty quick and the speedometer is off about 10 miles per hour. No engine mods accept for a K&N air filter. The exhaust appears to have the rear cats deleted and an H pipe added. The mufflers appear stock.
I have fixed the compass using the instructions on this sight. Had the anti skid sender replaced. The anti skid and traction control now work. I found a set of stock wheels had them painted gloss black. I installed FALKEN 235/50R/18 tires on the front with Yokamaka 255/55R/18 in the rear.
The air bags and solenoids have been reinstalled and the front springs replaced with the MOOG 80668 springs all found on ebay. I replaced the head and corned lights again the lights came from ebay.
I think the front springs are a little higher than stock. The ride is much improved. If you can tell, from the photo attached to this post, let me know if you feel the front is a little higher that stock.
I found an OBD2 Bluetooth reader that sends real time information to my Samsung Note 2. I can also read and reset the codes. I think everyone should have one of these. Again ebay has the reader and the (torque) app for the phone is free. A pro version of the app will let U get ¼ mile times. Helpful if you are doing mods and you want an accurate readout of the results. If you order a reader be sure it is intended for your phone. You can also have the info sent to a computer.
