    Kicking a dead horse > Removing quad shocks

    After I removed my quads when I mounted my 315's and put on my LCA's I found out working on a friends car you can flip the quads to allow room for the wheels. Also for the bolts on a quad shock, I think it is a 15mm.

    Kicking a dead horse > Removing quad shocks

    I removed mine when I installed my MM extreme duty LCA's with the spherical bushings. I had no issues with daily driving and under hard launches. MM, Trinity, etc says you can do it if you have a good quality LCA with a good bushing setup. It is NOT recommended if you have the weaker stock LCA...

    Best books for rebuilding 4.6 4 valves

    Personally you need to learn from a person who has experience with hands on. Reading is one thing, but experience and teaching you right and wrong is better.

    What's your average MPG?

    I forgot what my city was(didn't matter to me anyways) but my old 97 got around 23 mpg with 4.30's and full exhaust/tune.

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    If they aren't then some other magical power has caused my speedcal to be working perfect for the past 7 years:rlaugh: I have even installed others the exact same method and they worked fine.

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    Have you also double check the red power wire where it is scrotch locked to the cigarette lighter wire to make sure it really is spliced and it is getting power? Sometimes it won't make a connection. I have heard some speedcal coming dead as well.

    05 mustang wheels on a 98 cobra

    I wouldn't go through all that trouble for the car to look ugly.

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    That is the same thing. It is just AM's instructions should be clearer and need to be a little more correct. I just checked my website as i did a writeup on that for when I installed it on my old Cobra 7 years ago. To find the ground wire, the Pink/orange wire is for 94-98 cars only, the 99+...

    rear upper or lower control arms?

    Definitely go with the lowers first. I went with the MM ones. I was leaving the stock uppers in, but going to replace the bushings but ended up selling the car as it was cheaper to mod my LS1 and go faster than mod both cars together.

    What should my next mod be?

    That 4x4 could use some new springs :D

    96 Cobra squeak when turning the wheel & play in wheel

    I would look there and also look on top of the tie rod ends(the rubber part) as that can squeak too. I know mine was and they were the culprit.

    Insurance Verdict on Mach 1

    That's what I would do if there are decent parts left, like the engine/trans,etc. A friend of mine wrecked her 02 WS6 and they totaled it, she made a killing off it as she owned significantly less, bought it back and is parting about 4 grand out of it.

    Mach 1 or Cobra?

    Kind of like telling everyone you are leaving this site and not coming back, but do so multiple times? I guess a simple "my bad, I thought he was talking about an 03+ Cobra" is too man enough for you:shrug:

    o/r x install

    +1 on the oem gaskets. When I did all of my LT's or midpipes, I always used the oem stuff. You really never know what kind leaks you will get with junk paper gaskets.
