    fitting a 07 diff in a 04 rear???

    So the 05+s still rock an 8.8? That's good info. I'm tired of my locker on the street and have been looking for a good cheap LSD swap to throw in, and that will be a perfect swap since I have Moser 31 spline axles.

    is it bcoz of the intake manifold ? PROBLEMS

    I definitely hear a hissing noise in that video. It sounds more like a vacuum leak to me. Do you have a Check Engine light on at all? I've had the COPs go bad before and not throw a light.

    Can't push gas pedal more than half way...

    So, I'm driving my car a few days ago and everything was fine, until out of nowhere, everytime I would push the gas more than about halfway down, it sounds like I have a stutter box. The exhaust seems to get louder right under me, and it's an even, consistent loud GRRRRRRR noise. Not like an...

    question on v6-v8 swap for auto-x/street car??

    Old pushrod power is definitely cheap and easy to make, but the modulars are rev happy engines. Most of that type of racing that I've seen has the cars winding out pretty high, so I would personally go with a nice aluminum modular. Since you have a car that came pushrod either way that year, I...

    Wicked Rock Crawler!

    I know it's not Mustang related, but after all that talk about the Raptor, this seemed appropriate. Chainlink drive truck

    CREEKY MAXIMUM MOTORSPORTS EXTREME DUTY CONTROL ARMS PISSING ME OFF!

    Mine chirp like no other. I've also got the Extreme Duty adjustable height arms with a locker out back, so it makes a TON of noise making small, slow turns. I'm considering going down there with some very heavy grease and filling the areas between the neoprene outer pieces and the bearings.

    Wow, that certainly isn't a complicated exhaust system! Can't wait to hear a video of it!

    Thinking about buying a bike...

    I don't really give a crap what the bike looks like, as long as it's not a behemoth like a Harley Fat Boy. I'm really interested in some older Buells right now. I think they have a pretty nice look to them, and have heard some nice things. I've ridden a friend's BMW R bike before with the...

    Thinking about buying a bike...

    A few of my friends took a motorcycle course, and ended up getting my name on the waiting list. I'm kind of geeked about it because I haven't ridden a bike in YEARS. Last thing I owned was a Yamaha 125 Enduro, and I thought it was a rocket (as a kid). Now I'm looking more towards something...

    Remove keyless remote programming

    I've just tried what SVTTECH said to do, and it worked like a charm. My programming mode was a weird amount of key turns, but it did clear both of my remotes.

    whats your opinion on the 2010 svt f-150 raptor

    I thought it looked like an oversized trophy truck myself. They are still pretty badass in my book though.

    best ford commercial ever

    Hah, that's great. I think that Ranger looked a thousand times better than the F-150 did in 89. I always thought those were Ford's best years; 89 to 93. I'd push it to 95 due to the SHO's best year ending there, but there were some less desirable cars produced that year *coughContourcough*

    aluminum flywheel weight savings?

    I switched to a 12lb aluminum flywheel and loved the results. It revved a lot faster, but my fuel economy went down a bit. It made shifting feel a bit different after, but the IAC restrictor I put in fixed that. I did pair it up with a 6 puck 'high coefficient' clutch, but regret it. The...

    i think this is finally the end

    I would definitely pay at least 20k for 751hp and 36k on the clock. Best of luck to ya, man!

    Handz Detailed: SN95 Exterior Maintenance... Taken Too Far

    Ain't that the truth. I'm with EvilTurkey on the 'Being stuck on the opposite end of the country' thing. After I get a new hood, bumper, and bullitt scoops, I will be paying someone handsomely to detail my car since I just don't have the time or patience to do it anymore. I've got about a...

    What is loose? Torque steer?!

    I bought those exact ones because I hit the strip often, and run slicks occasionally. I like my car slammed when cruising, and wanted the adjustable spring perches so I could crank the rear end up to run tall slicks. On a set of stock 'stang springs and the perches all the way up, I cleared a...

    1993 crown vic 4.6 need help

    This is true. You also can't put PI cams in those NPI heads either. You have to do the full PI swap, which is better anyway. I would almost suggest finding a low mileage PI engine out of a 2003 (I believe was the first year of PI in the Vics) or newer Vic or Marquis, and grabbing all of the...
