    Tell me your thoughts...

    Personally, I don't care much for non-Mustang rims on Mustangs.

    How easy is it to install new shocks and springs

    The air compressor drives an impact wrench. The impact wrench makes it really easy to remove the top nut on the front shock. If you just turn it with a regular wrench, the shock turns with it. The impact of the air rachet allows you to loosen the nut with only minimal turning of the shock...

    Discuss Lower Control Arms here

    I put MM LCAs on a stock height 04 Mustang GT. You'll notice a harsher ride but only for the first week or so. After that, it becomes "normal". I noticed the rear end doesn't kick sideways as much when I do burn outs.

    Can anyone tell what's wrong with this picture?

    That's because he's a "tuner". :rlaugh:

    Lowering my car and need advice

    My rear lowered about 3/4" and the front lowered about 7/8". It looked like I had three dead bodies in the trunk all the time. I like the rake so I put polyurethane spring isolators on the rear and it helped level it out. I bought everything from StangSuspension.

    Advice please on this midpipe

    I have the combo you're looking at. I get compliments from non-Mustang folks and non-car enthusiasts too. Deep rumble is sort of universal to old school muscle cars. The raspy rat-tat-tat of X pipes are annoying to some people.

    DiabloSport Predator Tuner Help?

    Cool. They just want to know for sure that you're not one of those who are just trying to jack with them so you can use someone else's Predator on your car for free.

    Show me Your Tips!

    3.5" rolled slash tips from Summit Racing. They are just like the Mach 1 tips but they fill the cutout better. Summit Racing has them for about $25 each and it cost me $35 to get them welded on at a no name muffler shop. If I were to do this again, I would get the 18" long ones. These here are...

    Email StangSuspension. They'll answer your questions by the next day. Sometimes within hours. I've emailed MM multiple times and never got a response.

    DiabloSport Predator Tuner Help?

    Yup, uninstall it from the original car or send it to Diablosport. They'll clear it for $100 or something like that.

    MM LCAs: A year and a half later...

    Yea, torn factory bushing + the cup of the MM LCA + water + time = rust. The other side didn't have a tear although there was water puddled in the cup. It appears water still finds its way in. Maybe the paint was better on that side that it didn't rust.

    MM LCAs: A year and a half later...

    The car doesn't fishtail as much when stomping on the gas pedal. The ride is a little harsher though but not bad.

    MM LCAs: A year and a half later...

    It seems the rear came back up maybe 1/4 inch. I can't really tell much but it's only been a few hours. However, the polyurethane ones aren't supposed to settle. I'll know in a month or so after looking at it several times in different angles and lighting. I'm in north Texas and that's why the...

    MM LCAs: A year and a half later...

    Surface rust now. I'm glad I found it and not several years later. If the spring perch crumbles, I'll be SOL. The new spring isolators look cool though. I installed them hoping to get some of the rake back. After installing an Eibach Prokit, the front and rear appear level. I want a little bit...

    MM LCAs: A year and a half later...

    So I'm changing out the rear spring isolators and I find this... It looks like the high and mighty Maximum Motorsports brand rusts too. The factory isolator (rubber cup) fits over that center piece and traps moisture in. The replacement polyurethane ones from StangSuspension are open in the...
