Hey guys,

I have a full set of Yakima Q clips #40 for a contour. this if for the yakima roof rack system. typically they run $35 a pair (and you need two pair for the car!)

these ones are used but in great condition. I dont have the contour anymore, and i have the clips for my golf, so i thought i would offer these up.

$35 shipped :)

so if you are looking to get a rack system for your car, you could save some money and get these instead of buying brand new :) also comes with the white plastic "feet" as well, since they are made for the contour of the roof.

Anyone want a set of snow tires? I have some used ones on 15" steelies that should have one more season in them. One tire should be replaced, it doesn't hold air and has a pretty good sized bulge in it.

I know what you may think about the price, but i need some money to help my mom and dad a little bit, the rest is to buy another car. I think it makes sense because I live in my parents' house, if they lose the house i have no where to live, its based on the theory of charity and self preservation.


Bought the car from Grant, it runs great. 131k on the odo.

awesome SVT floormats and all! The body has a dent in the passengers side front fender currently from a 2mph accident in the driveway by the previous owner and it has a deant in the drivers side fender as well.

Here are the details...

Drivetrain/Performance-

* Ovalport 3L swapped SVT

* Built HMS transmission with a Quaife Limited Slip Differential. The trans is in perfect shape with no issues at all.

* Practically brand new full 2 1/2 Trubendz Catback Exhaust with Vibrant Mufflers and Resonator along with freshly installed 4 inch Stainless Steel Rolled edge tips. The exhaust sounds amazing!

* It has a high flow Y pipe that I have never seen before. It looks like a sho shop Y pipe but I am not too familiar with the different y pipe options. It is not just a MSDS or weapon R y pipe.

* B&M Short Shifter

* Poly filled front and rear roll resistors

* B&M Aftermarket oil cooler for superior oil cooling... this one is air to oil instead of the stock water to oil cooler.

* Newer Battery Relocated to the trunk in a battery box and all.

* Custom Intake/Filter Setup

* Chipped PCM with the tune for the 3 Liter!!!

* Spec Stage 3 clutch !!!



- Suspension

* Koni struts with BAT springs... this setup rides very very nice and also sits amazing. No rear sag or anything. Just a nice clean drop!

* Newer 4 Bolt Boxed in Lower Control arms!

- Asthetics/Guages, etc...

* Lo tek A pillar guage pod with the common Autometer Phantom Series guages

* Digital Wideband Air/Fuel guage for exact Air/Fuel ratio

* Silverfrost painted rear reflector with the SVT badge relocated from the lower stock trunklid location up to where the Ford oval used to reside.


- Wheels/Tires


* E1's



Few things added, Chrome Rings in instrument cluster, auto open/close sunroof, Brand new alternator, Brand new rear rotors and pads, Brand new front Wheel bearings. Also had the car dyno tuned with the 3L.

Car comes with The stock reflector and the painted one I got with the car.

WTB: 3L oil pump

WTB: 3L oil pump

hey guys i am still trying to find my low oil pressure problem on my sable and am seeing if any of you have an oil pump that would work. i dont want to throw a ton of new parts at the car and still be no where closer to finding the problem. i want to start with the oil pump so that i can also check out what my chain tensioners look like. so if anyone has a known good oil pump they would let go real cheap (struggling college kid with no car to drive...) that would be helpful. if the oil pump doesnt help at all then it is time to do rod bearings and rod cap bolts... thanks guys!

car specs:
2000 mercury sable
3.0L Duratec
120k miles



i would also like to add that my blue contour is no longer available for parts the car is going to be fixed in a couple weeks.
