    Transmission Problems

    I had the same problem. The 3rd gear synchro went bad. I bought a rebuilt one from http://www.smartpartsauto.com/manual_transmissions_mustang_tr3650_4014.htm The shop charged me $300 to put it in. Since your going to remove the tranny, change the clutch if you have a lot of miles. I...

    Is this clutch wear normal (Pics)

    Putting the car into 1st from a stop is not a 3650 issue. I have a centerforce clutch kit in my car now and it goes into 1st fine. It also went in fine with the stock clutch. Lift up the rear tires off the ground, start your car, put it in 1st gear and watch the wheels spin. It's a clutch...

    Is this clutch wear normal (Pics)

    I've installed the McLeod clutch myself so I'm 100% sure there wasn't any contaminents. I cleaned it with brake fluid to remove any oil spots from fingers. I did use the shim provided. Here's the measurments of the clutch disc: The clutch pads seem to be exactly the same on...

    Is this clutch wear normal (Pics)

    I got the flywheel turned at a machine shop. I used an alignment tool. The cable seemed to be good and I've replaced it (From dealer) when it didn't want to release completely. Brand new ford TOB, clutch lever, and pivot ball. I've also used the spacer McLeod provided. The inner raised...

    Review: Mcleod Dual Friction Clutch

    I have a McLeod stage 2 clutch that I don't like. After the clutch is warmed up, it does not want to release. On jack stands, the rear wheels spin when I press in the clutch. This makes going into 1st from a stop very hard. I think it has to do with the shim McLeod uses instead of making...

    clutch?

    I'm not a fan of McLeod. They use a thicker then OEM clutch and try to compensate using a spacer. My McLeod would not want to release after it was warmed up for 10K miles. Now my synchro's are messed up and I need a new tranny. I should of went with OEM.

    x-cal question (again)

    SCT will not let you do this. Your out of luck. I know they can do it because they have a program called XC2dump.exe that will extract your stock tune off your xcal2 but not custom tunes. No matter how much you beg, they won't do it. I wish Ford's ECM's went open source like Subaru and...

    Diff between 99-04 and 05+ TR-3650?

    My stock TR-3650 is grinding at high rpm's into 3rd gear. I guess I killed it after 130k miles so I'm looking for a replacement. Does anyone know if I can use a 05+ TR-3650 transmission in my 2002? I know the shifter is different but can I swap them out? I see some 05+ on ebay for a good...

    The cheap ones from Pep Boys, Autozone, Advanced Auto did the same thing on mine. The ones from Ford dealer went right in. The ford ones cost $10/each :(

    Spark Plugs N Clutch

    The spark plugs come out witn an extension and a spark plug socket. Really easy. The hardest part of doing the clutch is getting the starter out. The hidden bolt is tricky. The 2nd hardest is getting the top 2 bolts of the bellhousing off. You need a really long extension with a swivel...

    aftermarket smoked headlights?

    I purchased some ebay headlights and they don't fit that well. I had to trim the alignment pins to make them fit better and re-use the old rubber seals. If I had to do it again, I'd get the OEM replacements for $169 from: http://www.performancepartsinc.com/
