    possible fix for those with rattles in the back end

    ehh, cant quite agree with that... pushing on the swaybar will effectivly be pushing on the LCAs... depending on what you are looking at, you will not get much movement, and will NOT articulate the rear suspension on all fronts. second, you really cant get much pressure on the rear swaybar...

    Replacing MACH 460 speaker?

    took a look at my door, and was way off... i was remembering the RSX i had, not the GT. anyhow, you still pop off the control panel, and there are two screws in there. then you just pull up on the door. sorry, dunnno what i was thinking at first. Torinalth

    New Strut Time?

    ehh... thats kinda hard to diagnose from what you are saying... it could be a tie rod end, or even the ball joint from what you are saying.... not not enough information to make a solid guess. one thing to try, to see if its teh struts, is to unbolt the top strut nut (where the stock CC...

    possible fix for those with rattles in the back end

    rotate the axle the other way :P seriously... rotating clockwise on the passenger side will induce axle windup, thus stressing the UCAs... to test the LCAs, go clockwise on the drivers side, rip the rod back and forth... is ther a lot of give. is there any give? LCAs are not typically an...

    New GT owner

    i'd do PHB and trilink and remove swaybars. but thats just me. also, the PHB does not require welding in the slightest. but the subframes do. might want to re-asterisk your post. Torinalth

    low compression

    OT but this is one reason i stay around here... if anyone with experience leaves the site and moves off to the elite sites, or part spacific sites, then there would be a lot of unhappy mustang owners with nowhere to turn. yeah it sucks losing experienced people that can help, people like SVT...

    Replacing MACH 460 speaker?

    going to answer your question first, then post some other comments below that you might find valid. The door comes off easily. pop off the panel around your door handle (on the inside) and put it aside, use a screwdriver and pop out the control panel (where the lock and window switch is) on...

    Bad MUFFLERS !!!!

    i dunno. its possible, but before you dump money into new mufflers, i'd go ahead and redo (not check or gloss over) all the connections you can from the heads to the tail pipe and make sure the ratteling is not a connection, or god forbid something IN your damn pipes. maybe slag from the...

    Loss of advertised drop with H&R sport springs

    its both isolators and time. my HR race (drops less then the SS) didnt get fully in till about 2k miles (week and a half) and dropped just over 3/4" (advertised was 1") the prothanes do NOT compress like the stock rubbers do... i could get more of a drop by removing them, or going back to...

    accelerator cable!

    its in your mind, there is no slack... i have the same mods... its an illusion. only reason you notice now is that you actually had to mess with it. its not slack. still dont believe me? get someone to put the pedal to the floor.. does the TB open all the way? i rest my case. Torinalth

    Please help me properly build my motor...what would you do?

    headswap to ported PI with cams. plenum and TB, headers and X pipe... doing all the work yourself would put you around 4k, but be the best bet aside from a blower. Torinalth

    question for the NC mustang guys

    HAH, true enough. if i go boosted i will prolly stay 2v (only because its cheaper) the 4v would be for NA... looking at a VT shortblock and hellion turbo or possibly a KB. biggest question though.. I'm over in johnston county (registered in chatham) think anyone would care at inspections...

    can I reach 525 RWHP?

    its theorhetical with both heads and cams and exhaust... even KB doesnt say they go over 550 with ful bore supporting mods. go all out and maybe a tune by the hand of god (tim at MPH) and you should see it. point of note... i think you will have to step up to 42lb injectors... and you might...

    03 GT converting to 5.0

    just as something to think about.... the 5.4 has the same bore as the 4.6 its all about the length of the stroke that makes the difference... not saying its right or wrong... but if the 5.4 in the GT is so badass... then stroking cant be wrong either. granted ford is lazy, but they did...

    2v to 4v swap - search is not my friend

    everything suspension in the front end will be fine, no need to change anything. aside from the engine its self, everything from the GT will bolt up to the 4v. i think the only exception is the alternator which i believe just needs a differnt bracket... that is the one factor i cant seem to...
