There was a PA woman charged with bigamy maybe 15-20 years ago, and I think she was on national TV on one of the investigative shows. I remember running across this woman and she was VERY interesting, a great story teller, and tried really hard to draw me in. I did some research at the time, found her past, and ran like hell. I can’t seem to find anything about her now. Can anyone help me out? I’m curious what became of her now thank you in advance

Front end rattle?

Question (Serious Replies Only)

2014 charger. 135k miles. I’ve been doing work on this car, and most of this stuff I planned to do anyway, but I have a front end rattle, over bumps, which seems concentrated on the drivers side. I’ve done the following on the front: calipers and pads. Upper/lower control arms. Inner/outer tie rod ends. Front tensioner arms. Lower ball joints. Sway bar links. Sway bar bushings. Struts and springs. I’ve had it aligned at a shop. I carefully torqued every bolt I could reach (with the suspension at ride height under load). It still has a very noticeable rattle/ noise over bumps at low speeds. Here’s an odd part…. If I jack it up and let the suspension hang, and then lower it and drive it,

Just tossing this out there to anyone looking at the police package cars. My ‘14 has the larger BR9 brake package. Sounds good, right? The truth is, these parts are not easy to source. After several failures, I finally found the front calipers. I called a dodge dealer about the flexible brake line. His words…..Dodge doesn’t make them anymore, and when they did, it was the assembly from the master cylinder all the way to the caliper. What? A 14 year old car and I can’t get basic brake parts from the dealer??? I guess my point is, when dealing with pursuit/police vehicles, there can be unforeseen problems finding parts.

I did find the flexible line after much weeping and gnashing of

First, way to go buccos! Secondly, did anyone hear Bob Walk (I think it was him, 1020 KDKA broadcast) defending how much better Skenes start was? 4.1 innings, 3 earned runs 4 walks and 5k’s. That’s not a good start. He kept on about his fastball being back to his season average. Yeah, so? If this what we are calling improvement, the bar is really low. 100% grasping at straws for a pitcher with decreased velocity, increased ERA, increased walk rate, increased WHIP, and a pitcher who no longer puts fear in MLB hitters. I know the pirates pay Bob, but damn man, call it what it is.

I just did a front end suspension rebuild on my 2014 charger. UCA, lower tension arm, inner/outer tie rod ends, sway bar links, quick struts, lower ball joint, and even new calipers and pads. I knew the left caliper was bad, as there was tons of brake dust and it was constantly getting hotter than the other side, and there was considerably more wear on the left pads.

In the swap, I found one inner tie rod bent, one lower ball joint shot, and the other tie rod end connector jiggling like jello. So no matter what, I was going to do this work. The only problem is, my pulling right on hard braking persists. Should I change my attention to the rear brakes now? I’m reading elsewhere this

Hey all. I’ve been struggling with this. I replaced a 4.3 uconnect with an 8.4 and cannot get the microphone to work. I bought an aftermarket one because MY CAR DOES NOT HAVE THE MICROPHONE IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR. I’ve used alfaobd to enable the microphone. I’ve plugged the microphone into the hands free module (as my 8.4 does not have Bluetooth) and into the back of the head unit. Neither works. I can hear the caller, but they can’t hear me. The mute is NOT on. Any guidance is appreciated. Please don’t tell me there’s a microphone in my rearview. There’s not.

I put a factory backup cam in my 2014 charger. Used Alfaobd to activate it. It’s been fine for about a week. Now, all of a sudden, the image is reversed. It’s not upside down, but what is on the left shows on the right, and vice-Versa. Btw. NONE of the resets, hard or soft, do anything with this system. It will not reset. WTF IS GOING ON???
