    Frozen Door Locks

    I had my drivers side lock not work with a key for years, even after a new door lock actuator, spraying the lock with WD40, Lock Houdini, Lock Ease, ECT. So I replaced the door locks with new locks and works like a charm now. It is nice to be able to unlock the drivers side door with a key once...

    Thinking About Going E85

    There is another Stangnet member, Grover Dill who has 1100 HP twin turbo Mustang that runs strictly on E85. Maybe you can message him and ask him what mods he did to his Mustang to convert to E85. I do know that the area he lives in, he too has the problem of availability of E85 fuel.

    Fox Help!!!! I Sit Taller In My Car Now That I Replaced My Interior!!!

    I re-upholstered my seats from red to black a month or so ago and also replaced the old drivers seat foam with the TMI foam. I too also sit higher in the seat with the new TMI foam. But if I sit in the passenger seat of my car with the original stock foam in it, I sit higher in that seat than...

    Electrical Any Plug And Play Hid Kits Out There

    I bought a HID Headlight plug-n-play kit from Mustangs Unlimited. The only problem with mine was after it was installed I could only get 1 headlight to work. If I unplugged the working headlight then the other would light up but neither would light up together. So that kit is sitting in storage...

    What's The Fastest Yall've Been In/on A Vehicle?

    I am not sure of the speed because I had an 85 MPH speedo at the time, but in overdrive & about 5000 RPM, the speed was fast enough to blow the rear window louvers right off of my rear window. That was when Montana had no speed limit on their freeways back in the 90's.

    Engine Head Upgrade Changes Sound?

    I will say Flowmasters sound totally different on a 5.0 Coyote motor than they do on a 5.0 push rod motor. I know a fellow who has a 2012 GT convertible and that thing sounds wicked. I asked him what mufflers he was running on it and he told me Flowmasters. That I was not expecting because I am...

    Bad Door Lock Or Cheap Door Lock Actuator?

    The lock Houdini did not work but the new lock I installed works like a charm. Even with the old lock out of the car still it still would not turn. I guess after 25+ years of use must have just wore out. Problem solved.

    Bad Door Lock Or Cheap Door Lock Actuator?

    I will give the Houdini a shot and see how that works. Lock-Ease has not done the trick, and Joe I have shot WD40 in there at one time too. If the Houdini stuff does not seem to help then new lock cylinders it is as I plan on taking the door panels off in the future as part of my interior...

    Bad Door Lock Or Cheap Door Lock Actuator?

    For the longest time I have not been able to unlock my drivers side door with the key, very difficult to turn the lock. I replaced the door lock actuator with a new one from LMRS several years ago. The door still locks and unlocks fine with the power locks. The passenger side door still unlocks...

    Installing The Manual Trans

    MFE92 is right, never draw your trans in by the bolts. I have heard and read that it helps to have someone push the clutch pedal in while installing the transmission. Makes it go in a lot easier. Another trick my Step Father taught me years ago was to file off or chamfer the sharp edges of...

    Fox Advice/opinions On Gears 3:27 Vs 3:73

    I went from 2:73 to 3:73 gears when my Mustang had an AOD trans. Loved them then and still love them with my Tremec 5 speed trans now. Besides the AOD to 5 speed swap I feel that it was one of the other best performance upgrades to my Mustang I have done.
