Trilogy #124 MM

[Brujo]

Hey guys. First time on here and proud to be. Proud to be the 2nd owner of this amazing beast. Looking for locals in my area for shows and maybe just to cruise with. The Motorcity Marauders are no longer so just seeing what’s out there.

West side here, try and visit us131 motrosports park in Martin as much as i can.

Thanks guys. Hey quick ?. This past weekend started getting what sounds like belt squeal only in gear and stopped. Goes away under torque. Sounds like it’s coming from the ass. belt right behind the alternator. Possibly the alternator bearings? I’m going to test the belts first but was wondering if anyone had any input. Thanks again.

I’ll try to make it out there. Bought a nice crown Vic interceptor off a cool cat in Hastings. I’ll do my best .

How long ago?

[Brujo]

Last May. His name was John I do believe. Miss that car.

[cheapthrillb2]

But with marauder wheels? Pretty sure that was me. Tom?

LOL, I miss that car to. She was a ripper. Had lots of hrs into it. What happened to it?

[Brujo]

One in the same.

[Brujo]

Is this John?

[cheapthrillb2]

Yep. Lol. I seen you had it for sale for a moment in a Facebook group.

Got hit in the driver rear at the wheel well. Dog tracked pretty good after that. Ended up selling it to some guy in Detroit. Yeah I purchased a absolute beast of a Marauder. Trilogy 124 s/c. Very very well taken care of

[Brujo]

Yeah I got it pulled out pretty good and it started to rust right at the dog leg real bad in a matter of weeks. Haha... she was a ripper

[cheapthrillb2]

Sucks to hear about the p71 :(. Cool on the marauder. You funded some changes on mine last year...

Had the Marauder up for a split second but after launching that thing there was no way I could ever... I’m in love..

[Brujo]

That’s a Damn nice Marauder if your own there brother. I’m moving to Kentucky this summer but I’ll try to make it out that way .

Check the idler pulley bolted to the bracket that holds the alternator.

Coming back from NYC down to VA my idler decided enough was enough and rolled the bearings. Took my accessory belt with it. Two tows later and it's fixed. To those who have Trilogy's you should check this out. Mine gave little to no warning before it went.
