    Differences In Steering Rack For 17" Or 18" Wheels?

    That was my assumption, that's why I looked, at Fordparts.com and RockAuto and they both show the same thing:different racks and tie rods based on which wheel diameter the car came off the line with. The racks are all the same dimension, the issue must be rubbing with the larger rims, so the...

    Warranty On Paint

    The paint is covered under the 3/36 bumper to bumper warranty that came with the car.If your car is still under that warranty then you should have no issues getting it repaired. If your warranty is expired I would contact Ford Customer Service and ask for assistance with the repair, being that...

    Differences In Steering Rack For 17" Or 18" Wheels?

    This got me curious so I checked Fordparts.com , they show the same thing, 3 different racks for 2010 Mustang GT's depending on the wheel diameter. I wanted to see this was something unique to '10s so I looked at '11s ....9 different racks depending on both wheel size and build date. Having...

    Differences In Steering Rack For 17" Or 18" Wheels?

    If I recall correctly in 2010 only GT500s and Mustang GTs ordered with the Track Pack option came with 19" rims. I know that the Track Pack cars use GT500 stabilizer bars maybe they use the closer ration GT500 steering rack as well.That would can account for a different rack for cars with 19in...

    Need Help!

    Just keep in mind you will loose the side pipes, if you don't care about that then it sounds good to me. If you want to keep them, Kooks has a LT system that retains them.

    Engine Brembo Package Gt Choking!!

    I m supposed to turn on the car and drive it... Yes that is correct, that is what you are supposed to do: start the car and drive it. Not start it, let it idle, shut it,start it and drive it. Your causing the car to load up.

    Lowering

    You could go with Eibach camber bolts:http://www.americanmuscle.com/eibach-proalign-bolts-0512.html I used them on my 2010 GT with a 1.5" drop all around.They will give you enough adjustment either way to set the camber back to spec. I have read that they are not as strong as the factory bolts...

    2006 S197 Gt Traction Issues!

    If it were me and I was only planning on keeping the car another year or so then I wouldn't put any more money into it. Especially since mods won't increase the resale value. Just enjoy it the way it is. It look great by the way.

    2006 S197 Gt Traction Issues!

    I had an non adjustable UCA on my 2010 with a 1.5 inch drop with no issues so I would think you should have no issues with your car lowered 1.2.inches.having said that,when I get around lowering my '12 I will be going with an adjustable arm. Regardless of which you decide to get, make sure you...

    2006 S197 Gt Traction Issues!

    You pretty much answered your own question.With the car sitting on the wheels the LCAs should be parallel to the ground. So you defiantly need LCA relocation brackets to correct the geometry. You also need to upgrade the crappy factory arms. I'm partial to BMR , but just about any aftermarket...

    Car Got Water In It !!

    I HAVE been through this and I absolutely disagree. I lost my 2010 GT and my wife lost her 2012 Ford Flex to Sandy. If your car was flooded by salt water, Sorry but your done. Your car is junk, Even if the water did not get high enough to submerge the pcm, there are plenty of "mission...

    Boss 302s Pcv Routing

    No. It vents out into the atmosphere. From reading the product description apparently it used to vent through the cap but that was causing fumes to enter the cabin. Now it vents out of the third hose which can be routed anywhere, such as the underside of the car.

    Boss 302s Pcv Routing

    That is an aftermarket firewall mounted oil separator. As to why Ford uses it on the 302S,Do they? Or was it installed by the owner of this particular car? Regardless venting crankcase emissions into the intake is mandated by emissions regulations ,as a race car, not intended for street use...

    Tires And Lowering

    On my 2010 I had Ford racing K-Springs, 1.5 " drop all around. I had 255/40s-19s up front and 285/35-19s in the rear on staggered AMR rims (19x8.5 and 19x10) with no rubbing or clearance issues whatsoever.

    Wheels And Traction

    I had 4 Foxes, and no matter what I did, Lakewood traction bars, Southside machine LCAs etc,every one was a smoke fest, even my bone stock 84 GT with something like 160hp burned the tires off the rims.

    Wheels And Traction

    TT I see a big difference between IRS and a solid rear,however what I apparently can't see the difference between you and 84Ttop. I meant to respond to him not you. You and I are in agreement and we both recommended Drag Radials to the OP. 84Ttop quoted both of our posts recommending Drag...

    Wheels And Traction

    84Ttop I must be missing something.TT5.0ca and I said his best option are drag radials, you said you disagree,but then said your 675hp S550 hooks with DRs as did a handful of 450-500hp Foxes you had . Sounds like DRs work for you.Where is that part where you disagree?

    Woe Is Us

    Wow that sucks.How that hell did they miss that and the paint issue on the pre-delivery inspection? At least the dealer didn't try to blame the front end damage on you.
