    axle Swap

    Yep, 99-04 works. I just did this swap. Find a friend with a lift and it should take less then an hour.

    Steering Chatter

    I just installed aluminum rack bushings, coil overs, and new A-arms this weekend. I am now getting a fair amount of steering chatter. I know the aluminum rack bushings mentioned this as a possible problem if the rack was contacting the k memeber. We checked and the rack isnt touching. Does...

    8.8 rear end strength?

    Hmm, well I wont be running drag radials, at least not anytime soon. I have a v6 that I am uprgrading to a 8.8 and putting a turbo on. Its an auto so hopefully that will reduce the shock to the rear a little. If it blows I can live with putting in stronger parts, I just dont want to get into...

    How much hp/tq can the stock 8.8 rear end take without problems? Will it be ok around 320 rwhp and 320 rwtq?

    from the people who swapped 460 things...

    Haha, yeah the wiring really isnt too bad it makes for a fun project. Although I somehow managed to blow my sub that I have had for a few years, still not really sure how that happend. Oh well means I get to upgrade. Going to 500 watts rms to a Diamond D6 sub instead of ~150 to my old sub. It...

    from the people who swapped 460 things...

    I just put a new deck and speakers in my car last week. A Pioneer D3 GPS and infinity speakers. I have 6x8's in the rear running off of the deck and they are as loud and clearer then the factory speakers. However I think there is less bass, shouldnt be an issue with the sub though. The front...

    Sound quality compared to Mach 460?

    I am looking at getting a Pioneer D3 nav unit in my 01 mustang. What I am wondering is if it is worth it to put new speakers and amps in at the same time. Would I notice much of a difference in how the system sounds if I put in some decent speakers? I wouldnt want to spend more then about $200...

    MACH rear deck/speaker box

    If I put aftermarket speakers in the rear deck can i take that big plastic box that hangs down in the trunk out? Will it free up much trunk space or does it really not take up that much? I already have added a sub so i dont need the increased bass from the box (i think thats what its for)...

    Changing Color of Cluster Lights

    Yeah you can replace the lights in the clusters with blue LED's. I saw a write up on it somewhere but not sure where. I cant remember if there was more to it then that or not.

    1998 Rear axle in 2000 V6

    I believe it would work but the axle is shorter so if you wanted to keep the same wheel base you would need to use spacers, I dont know if the wheels would fit without spacers. From what I have read you are better off if you can find a 99-04 axle.

    Exhaust Manifold... HELP

    I just had my passenger side manifold crack. I have done almost no work on cars, but I went out and bought a socket set and was able to take it apart very easily. Got it welded back together and running again with no problems. It takes a bit of time, but its deffinatly not hard. I thought it was...

    Bushings for rear sway bar?

    This may be a stupid question, but I just put a rear sway bar in and it didnt have any bushings. It is just bolted straight to the lower control arms. Is this correct? Just wanted to make sure that I'm not missing anything. Thanks

    REAR ENDs!

    Cobra i would think there would be a difference from your case in that 99+ v6s already have 3.27's in them. So there would be less of a drop in milage. If your 98 was a 5 spd then that would affect it too. I'm not saying that there wont be a decrease in gas milage but it shouldnt be as...

    REAR ENDs!

    With a flash tuner you can adjust shift firmness and gear ratios without installing a new tune, correct? I am thinking about installing gears as well.
