    radiator protector - mach 1 delete

    You dont have to have the 3 piece. The reason why 2 piece kits are offered is because some cars like my 2000 GT are already equipped with the radiator opening cover, look thru your grille first.

    Mach 1 Grill Delete Install *pics*

    The reason why 2 piece kits are offered is because some cars like my 2000 GT are already equipped with the radiator opening cover, look thru your grille first. Are you asking can you buy a Ford part from a Ford dealer? :shrug: Only your hairdresser knows for sure. The part number is...

    Race weight...

    My 2000 GT wheels weighed in at 19# 14.4 oz. for one & 20# 0.8 oz. for the other, center caps were 3.6 oz. each, spare tire weighed 26# 15.0 oz. The '99 35th ann. wheels were slightly different than the deluxe GT wheels, who knows maybe they were alloyed with some magnesium to be that lite.

    Rear End went out on me

    104,000+ miles and the rear end have been howling & whining for a few years on my stock rear 2000 GT. Also you may get some clunking sound as if there is too much play between the ring & the pinion, most confuse this with bad u-joints. But as you have found out this is not the case. A search...

    Double Wishbone conversion??

    Griggs Racing and HP Motorsports both have a system out. When searching, try using SLA for Short Long Arm suspension. Also take a look at this site: http://www.miracerros.com/mustang/t_suspension.htm#Front

    A/C pulley issue

    I'm having exactly the same problem. Your compressor sounds as if it works fine. You don’t want to replace it if all you are having is a problem with the clutch hub. The pulley has a pretty solid bearing and this should also be fine. The part you want to replace is the part that goes in front of...

    passenger window problem

    You're not alone, I have the same problem, I'll check the manual to see what can be adjusted, either way it looks like I’ll be taking the door panel off.

    Plug and wire question.

    I would suggest a Haynes manual or equivalent to become more familiar with your car first. Your car does not have conventional spark plugs wires due to the individual coils on each spark plug. Also change your "from the:" display option to the beginning and do a search on spark plugs to get a...

    Loweing Springs???

    Shocks and struts are similar in that they both damp (slow down) the vehicles motion. The difference of a strut vs. a shock is that a shock only controls the cars motion while a strut is a locating member of the suspension. If you remove a shock the spindle or axle will still be completely...

    Ceramic brake pads -vs- Organic brake pads... any benefit

    Brake rotors are made from cast iron, beside the ceramic rotors on the Porsche Carrera GT, what other rotor material are you talking about? Your car is originally equipped with ceramic pads from the factory. Ceramics are rotor friendly, unlike some semi metallic. I would continue using the...

    AGSF32PM Spark flug gap.. HELP!

    I’m not disputing the voltage that is required to fire copper or platinum tipped plugs, I’m stating that platinum does not replace the copper in platinum tipped plugs. The platinum is not in the core of the plug and it’s not inside the center electrode either and it has no effect on the voltage...

    AGSF32PM Spark flug gap.. HELP!

    The stock plugs have a copper core just like any other standard plug out there. The platinum is on the tip on the center electrode (AWSF-32P) and some plugs have a small button of platinum welded to the ground electrode (AWSF-32PP) Also the copper in the center electrode is encased in nickel...

    Traction Lock question in here.......

    Yes you can have ABS without Traction Control for a 2000, that’s what I have for my GT. Also my Insurance gave me a discount for ABS and for having a Passive Auto Theft system.

    What to do?

    2003=year; Auto=trans; 4.6 tech forum=engine size. As far as maintenance goes for a late model Mustang, the most frequent job is changing the oil and filter. Check with your Ford dealer for a scheduled maintenance book and use that as a general guide or purchase a Haynes manual.

    Does this sound right for interior painting?

    This does not sound right to me to use all that primer on plastic parts. Just clean and paint them just as you would a plastic model car. Even though these parts are molded in the color of the interior, they already have factory paint on them, you will be able to see this better when you take...
