    Wheels-Tires 11' Gt Wont Hook Up To Save Its Life

    Is your car lowered? The S197 Mustangs use a panhard rod so lowering them will cause the rear differential housing to shift in relation to the body, It does not affect handling or ride but it is noticeable especially with wider rear tires. It is easily corrected with an adjustable panhard rod...

    Gt350: Where Are The Mods?

    It's the GT350s without the track pack that are having cooling issues on when tracked. The Track Pack incudes transmission and diff coolers. 2016 owners who selected the Tech Pack which does not include any of that are having issues when they track their cars. They heat up and go into limp...

    Will Different Sized Tires Work?

    My car came from Ford with 255/40-19s up front with a diameter of 26.85" and 285/35s in the rear with a outside diameter 27.03" I know its only a small difference, but still they are different and if it were an issue Ford wouldn't sell the car that way. Plus there are plenty of guys with...

    Trak Pak Wing Adjustment

    If you are talking about traction off the line or at below highway speed the spoiler and how it is adjusted is not going to help at all, other than putting more weight over the rear tires.

    2017 Gt Clutch Questions

Or take a ride over to dealership and tell them what the deal is and ask them if you can try depressing the clutch of another car. The Steeda spring will make the clutch stiffer, that is what it does. if you do determine...

    Paint and Body 2" Of Water In The Drivers Side Footwell

    One thing you didn't mention is if your car is still under the 3yr/36K mile bumper to bumper warranty. If it isn't then there is not much you can do. Are you sure they said it was clogged underbody drain holes and not a clogged cabin air filter drain tube? If you're positive they told you...

    Motor Code Numbers

    Suspension

    I am not running coil overs. The Boss 302 comes from the factory with adjustable shocks and struts, and the car only had around 3500 miles on it when I changed the springs, so I could see replacing the shocks and struts at that point.. Other wise I would likely have went with coilovers.

    Suspension

    Well coilovers are probably the best option in my opinion, but they are very expensive ,they do give you ride height adjustability so you can set it where you want it. Plus since you planning on replacing the Struts and shocks at the same time you are going to be spending a lot anyway. When...

    Auto To Manual Swap- God Help Me

    Fix what you have or sell the car. Is the swap possible?Sure,plenty of people have done it. But it is the least cost effective of your 3 options: fix, swap, or sell. If you are going to go the donor car route, your donor has to be a correct 4.6 car otherwise you are making it harder om yourself,

    Tpms Indicator On

    If your car has Brembo brakes it did not come with any spare, donut or otherwise. It came with what Ford calls a "tire mobility kit." Which is an electric air pump that runs off the cig lighter and a built in can of slime.
