Maybe some detail on what you're ultimately trying to accomplish would help. Are you trying to sabotage someone's vehicle, or trying to troubleshoot something else? Why not put it in neutral and chock the tires with the parking brake set?

Re: 92' Dynasty trans?

Dont worry the vehicle is mine, its getting inspected and they think the the tranny doesnt work when in drive, but only works in reverse. I dont really care if what ever i have to try takes out reverse too as long drive dosent work (all this, is just temporary until after its inspected) . would really appreciate any suggestions though.? Thanks,

Re: 92' Dynasty trans?

Hang on, you're trying to trick someone inspecting the vehicle into thinking the transmission has problems?

Please forgive me for appearing really stupid here, but

why on earth would you want to do that?

If you're trying to defraud someone, odds are the inspector will know enough to recognize a quick sham job. Then again, if you're up against some truly evil person or entity and trying to prevent unfair loss on your part, do explain the situation and I'll try to help. If it's in the interest of personal gain, don't bother.

Re: 92' Dynasty trans?

This is not for my personal gain, I have a neighbor that is out to get me, saying I hit his car with mine, when I have not even driven my car in a year because I cannot afford insurance. All this because I helped there 16yr old son abit after they through him out on the streets with no money or nothing except for the clothes on his back. so please any suggestions would be great? Thanks again.

Re: 92' Dynasty trans?

A car that has been sitting for a year will have plenty of signs it has been sitting.

Rust on the brake discs and inside drums is a pretty good give away.


I assume an independant inspector is coming to look at the car?

If you really have not driven it in a year, then they will be able to see that.

Re: 92' Dynasty trans?

Yep, better to not give the inspector something to find. If they find that you've made an attempt to disable the vehicle, that will certainly make you look more guilty. Additionally, since they are claiming you hit their car, the inspector should be able to look at dents/scuffs on their car and compare them against areas on your car for signs they match up or have paint chips of the same color. If they're claiming that huge dent on your rear fender is where you hit their car, the rust formation where the paint chipped away should prove that the dent's been there a long time.

Help the inspector put more trust in you than your neighbor, don't risk making them think you're trying to perform insurance fraud or cover up your guilt.

Much agreed. You have no reason to try and fool anyone here, as the truth will easily back you up.

Re: 92' Dynasty trans?

yes, you are all right, but as a back up I thought of disabling the car from moving just in case. About the rust on the rotors I went out to check but where the pads rub there is no rust, so when I got my car towed to an estimate for electrical repairs from the dodge dealership could somehow that have taken off the rust.

Re: 92' Dynasty trans?

You can't afford insurance, but happily fork over cash to tow a vehicle to and from the most expensive option for repairs (but only for an estimate).

Something doesn't add up here...

If that's really the case you should have no trouble providing the towing receipts as proof you don't drive this car.
