    New Shocks

    I just ordered a new pair of Bilstein shocks for my 98. As you can see in my sig I currently have Tokico's (Those that came with the Mach 1's) all round. After 2 years the rear shocks are, or have, failed. My question are: 1) the Tokico's and the FRRP "C" springs dropped my car around 1" all...

    Will It?

    Well it seems my 3 year old Mach 1 Tokico shocks have gone out. I've decided on new Tokico Blues to replace the old shock/strut combo. I have read where these shocks/struts in some instances have raised the height of the vehicle to normal 4x4 height. When I put on my old Tokico's I also put...

    CRAZY Temperature Gauge

    Hello Everyone: It's been a long time since I last posted in here, for that I apologize, but I truly have a problem and want to confirm my diagnosis. My '98 Mustang's temperature gauge is nuts! I put the heater on in the car and after a while it goes to the middle of normal with the hot...

    Suspension Combo Good or Bad

    Good Evening: About a year and a half ago I put in FRRP "C" springs and Mach 1 strut/shocks. Just for sh*** and giggles I also put in new isolators and bump stop. Fast forward to now and my ride is still HARSH. Small bumps are not too bad but medium and large ones are like...

    Complete Speaker Replacement

    I've got the Mach 460 in my '98 and I want to completely replace all speakers. Has anyone done this? Are there any "Kits" for this? Is it just a drop in replacement so to speak or do I have to replace anything else? If you have done this replacement (speakers only not the head unit) what did...

    Wheel Wax

    Can anyone recommend a good wheel wax that will help prolong the cleanliness of my wheels from brake dust, etc.....? Is there even such a thing? Cleaning my rims every week is just a PITA! Thanks for any help you can provide.

    How much better?

    Hello All: I am soliciting opinions on the benefits of a rear sway bar AND rear shock brace (for those who don't know it's like the strut tower brace but it goes in back). As you can see from the mods in my signature that I am not too much of a racer per se but I do love to be a corner...

    New Headlights

    It's time for new headlights, my '98's are yellowed both inside and outside. While doing research, "using search" on this net I have noticed several patterns of thought regarding the subject. 1) HID - Too technical for me I think. Supposedly the brightest. 2) Halo - Looks cool but not that...

    Cr*p, Engine Problems?

    Steering Squeak

    Hello: I just recently installed new shocks/struts/springs, about 1000 miles ago to be exact. Now I am noticing a DEFINITE squeak when I turn my wheels, it's not all of the time, but ALOT of the time. I put new spring isolators with the springs so I don't think it's that. I'm fairly...

    Shock/Strut/Spring Install

    For those individuals that have had their shocks, struts, and springs installed for them, how much did it cost you? I know it would be cheaper to do it myself but it's just too d*** cold over here to do so, and it's not even snowing yet! :p Please let me know if anyone has had this done and...

    Overdrive Shifting

    I believe that this is the correct forum for this question. Is it okay to shift from O/D to O/D Off while driving at low speeds? Does this do any damage to the car? Thanks for your help.

    Theft Light Blinking

    After starting my car up (see sig), my theft light blinks rapidly. Looked around, saw no obvious signs of forced entry. In addition to this I have a security alarm that would have told me had there been an attempt to break in, yet no indicator. Feeling fairly comfortable I shut down the car...

    Shift Kits

    Please forgive me for being naive but what does a shift kit do? I've read previous posts where if I understood correctly it allows D,1,2,OD to shift manually like a stick? If this is so, do you do it when you hear the engine start to rev for that band (rpms are correct for that shift)? Or do...
