    New bumper doesn't align with fender

    My 2006 rear bumper cover had a small gap from new. I read somewhere to give the bumper a smack from below. I did that and it clicked into place. Maybe that might work on the front bumper cover.....??

    Hi From The Uk And Help Please!

    Looks like the other thing new as I read in your post is the Ford Racing intake manifold. These sometimes tend to flex out with the added volume of air (pressure) from the Vortech - could be your problem. causing some sort of leak or vacuum irregularity. A couple of years ago before I...

    Another 70mph Vibration Question

    The first time I changed gears in my rear end, I had a vibration about that speed. Somewhere on the forums I read to add a washer to one of the pinion flange bolts, which I did and I eliminated the shimmy or shake.That was back around 2006 just after I got the 2006 GT when I installed 373s...

    Ring And Pinion Gear Pattern

    From a post I put on another site: Look up James Adkins instructions on gear install. A honed out used pinion bearing really helps. Do the master housing dimension exercise. Measure your old pinion head in a number of placed and do an average for the measurements. Measure your original pinion...

    05 Mustang Gt Diagnosis Help....hard Fix!

    The XCal2 was 7 years old, obviously warranty was long gone. I took it apart and saw that the green wire on the obdII cable had broken off the fecp solder point. Re-soldered it and now the loader works again. If anyone has the "Turn key on Do Not Start" flashing until the power up times out...

    05 Mustang Gt Diagnosis Help....hard Fix!

    Haven't installed it yet but will see after that. Right now it runs great except for a failing alternator (it seems). The SCT Xcal2 I've had for 7 years seems to have packed it in. Possibly from this P0340 code or failing alternator. Can't load tunes and am researching that.

    05 Mustang Gt Diagnosis Help....hard Fix!

    Not my theory, but that of the author. Looks like being a mechanic and putting a lot research into this you were able to circumvent the need for a tune. You have the equipment and knowledge to figure all this out - more power to you. I already had a tuner when I installed my deletes and...

    06 Gt 3.73 Install Nightmare

    You should have measured the pinion head you took out and then the new head and with the difference and the original shim, you could have calculated what size shim you need. Just to say the fitment looked good isn't very exacting. Look up an article by James Adkins...

    05 Mustang Gt Diagnosis Help....hard Fix!

    If you changed the cmcv plates by taking the flaps(manifold runners) out, then you need a tune for this. You essentially made delete plates which require a tune.

    Driver's side at front of transmission is where the rubber boot can be pulled off to get at the torque converter bolts, or you might be able to get at them by removing the bottom inspection plate (two bolts) from under the front of the transmission. You'll need help for someone to hold the...

    Spark Plugs for 06 GT

    Bought mine from RockAuto about a year ago, one plug the little cone slipped over the spark area (brand new in box). Rock Auto wouldn't warranty their sale and had to go to Champion Canada who arranged to replace locally. The past few weeks my 06 Mustang GT has been driving me crazy, running...

    New hood on a 2006 GT, now engine is running lean

    You'd think with the cooler air coming in it would run better. Computer and oxygen sensors work to some degree to adjust fuel. A tune adjustment is likely required as it shouldn't be that finicky just for more cooler air.

    rear gears

    I did 373 in my auto and it made a large difference in "fun driving" - quicker more nimble. Lost a little gas mileage - maybe 1 or 2 mpg. Then I did 410s and it was even better for driveablility. Again lost 1 or 2 mpg. Definitely makes the car more responsive and accelerate better, but will...
