    Rear end split in half!?!?

    I'm going to stick with a sra, I think, I went and took pictures of the car yesterday, and I couldn't find the crack but, I couldn't really get under the car either. Just looking at the axle tube though, I could tell it was pushed way up off of center. Also speed concepts has new axles on sell...

    Rear end split in half!?!?

    I would prefer to have the axles, gears, etc. I know the internals are not right either, just based off of what is already broke.

    Rear end split in half!?!?

    I don't know if it was welds for sure, that is what the guy said on the phone that he could see oil seeping from the crack. They quoted me $1500 for a used axle which is outragous. So i'm on the lookout for a new rearend now.

    Rear end split in half!?!?

    Story is linked but I now have to get a whole new rear end. Ford just called and my rear end housing acually split in half at a weld holding the axle tube to the pumkin. Over $2k in damages, so now i'm going to put 3.73's in the rear and take out a loan just to do this all until I get...

    Finally got my rims

    I finally got my rims for my car after it being down for nearly 2 months due to Indiana DOT. I wrote awhile back about my car having two tires blown out and two rims trashed due to a construction area that was not correctly patched after the asphault had been torn up. I picked up a set of oem...

    How to beat a PI Stang.

    I rode in a non pi stang, 97 I believe with roughly the same mods as mine just not tuned. Not to knock you non pi guys but it was seriously lacking in low end torque. I have no doubt that my car would put a few car lengths on one from stop to 100.

    aftermarket 2v heads, never.

    I would guess that they are not attempting to make them because the gain would not be significant enough for people to purchase the heads. Also, it would take a lot of time and money to design and test the heads. I don't know about you guys but i refuse to spend to $1500 or more for a 20 to 30...

    Questions about the trans swap....

    I broke a blocker ring in my trans powershifting from to second. I went ahead and replaced the synchros at the time and it was 800 for the rebuild. I about went with a t56 but i just didn't have the extra money at the time. My trans went out at about 62k and my clutch looked pretty good...

    Questions about the trans swap....

    To get to the pilot bearing you have to remove the clutch, its the bearing that the input shaft of the transmission sit in. It is in the engine block inside the rear main seal. How many miles are on the current clutch? My king cobra doesn't grab very hard, just better than stock but you also...

    Questions about the trans swap....

    The weird socket he is talking about is a 12pt 12mm socket or wrench, if its not a 12 pt is will not work, you can use a pipe on the end of wrench if you don't have a breaker bar. The top bolts of the trans can be reached if you do a couple of things. 1.) Jack the front of the motor up a...

    Wish list for 2010 mustang

    I have been a Ford/Mustang enthusiast my whole life, but there are a couple things that drive me crazy about the mustang and when they redesigned the 2005 I think it was missing some key elements. For 2010 they need these corrected.... 1.) Put a 6sp manual in the GT models, please for the...

    t45 into mid01-04 gt

    Thats cheap, considering it was $800 to get my t45 partially rebuilt. When i say partially i mean it has new 1-2 synchros and blocker rings. That was with me taking the trans out myself.

    Terminator or GT500?

    I talked to guy that had a gt500 and he traded in his termi to get it. I asked him which he liked better and he looked at me like was crazy. Then simply replied the gt500 hands down, said it would smoke his termi. He had mods on both cars. I believe both of them had pullies, intake, exhaust...
