    anyone running 275/35 18s up front?

    From what I've seen, it's a 50/50 on 275's. It may rub, it may not. But I will warn you...your turning radius will be absolute *****. It'll take about 3 to 4 lanes to make a u-turn. Which is exactly why I got used to making u-turns by breaking the rear-end loose :)

    Yes, I've been at least 5 times over the past 2 years and haven't come across anything except for the switch housing (not real switch inside) :(

    Convertible Top Issues - Fix: *New Switch* OR *Convert To Manual* - HOW?

    Does anymore have more information on this? When I attempted to disconnect the hydraulics, all I could find was the star-key bolt which was nearly impossible to take out. Thanks!

    STRANGE Speedometer Issue

    Ever since my car was broken into (March 2008), my speedometer has not worked correctly. I have a DM SpeedCal installed, so when they ripped out the center console, they took the power for the SpeedCal with them. I tried giving it dedicated power, that did not work. So finally, when I got...

    Convertible Top Issues - Fix: *New Switch* OR *Convert To Manual* - HOW?

    I've been gone for a long while...been neglecting the Mustang for my bike :( But I'm back. And I am trying to do some repairs to my 98 GT convertible. My main issue is the top. My car was broken into in March of 2008. The only thing that was stolen was my center console. Right, who breaks...

    which intake should I use?

    Does the Cobra/Explorer intake similarities only matter if it's JUST the upper intake swap? A buddy of mine wants to buy a Explorer setup that comes with the injectors, rails, throttle body, upper intake and lower intake for around $200 after shipping. Is this a good deal?

    Do I need new shock and springs?

    Wouldn't hurt to replace them anyways, especially with 100k+ on the stock set. Might I suggest H&R Super Sports Springs (~2" drop, love mine) and either Tokico or Bilstein shocks/struts. Just my 2 cents...

    BEST CAI FOR 02 GT

    I agree with the JLT True Cold Air intake. They go for about $230, and are definitely worth every penny. When paired up with a nice throttle body and plenum, you will feel a MAJOR increase in power, even before a tune.

    Eaton M112 on a 2V 4.6L NPI?

    How difficult is it to mount an Eaton M112 supercharger (from a stock 04 Cobra) to a 1998 2V 4.6L NPI engine? Also, what's involved? Are their any write ups? What do these superchargers go for right now (parts included in offer: supercharger, throttle body, wire harness, injectors, and upper...

    I'm assuming that I can get the dielectric grease and silicone spray at AutoZone?

    Changed Plugs, Now Car Will Not Start

    Thanks. Any suggestions on what to clean the ports with? They are way deep and I don't have a vacuum attachment that narrow.

    Changed Plugs, Now Car Will Not Start

    Figures. I rewired it to the Chilton and it still did not start, then to the Haynes way and it started up just fine. It is still miss firing, but not as bad. So I'm going to pull all of the plugs, clean the ports thoroughly, gap the plugs, and put each back together. I'll let you guys know what...

So I started on the driver...

    How To Test a Window Motor?

    I just ordered a window motor and I want to test it before I install it. It has a red wire and a yellow wire. Do I just provide 12v to one, and ground to the other? This would be my assumption because the motor has to rotate 2 different directions. Any suggestions?

    98 Cobra Bumper vs Mach 1 Chin Spoiler -- Can we make it work?

    I just installed a Cobra front bumper on my 1998 GT and I have been looking at the Mach 1 chin spoiler for my year. I do know that the fog light housing area rounds down past the base of the front bumper, but do you think that I can make the chin spoiler fit properly with some slight cutting...

    JLT Cold Air good quality?

    When combined with an aftermarket plenum and throttle body, and after a re-tune for all 3, it makes some pretty decent noticeable change.
