    Advice on Drag Wheels

    I assume your cobra rotors and brakes are the same size as my 99s so I can in fact run 15 inch wheels. This setup is 15x8 with 4.75 backspace and black. I might paint them too if I got black. Since this is 15 inch I now got a better tire selection option. Your running a 10.5 tire on an 8...

    Advice on Drag Wheels

    Been doing some reasrch on the various forums. Have come across various advice. I have read about wheels from the GT guys and Cobra guys. I concluded that since I got Cobra Brakes and Rotors on my solid axle that 15x8 wheels will not fit. That I need 16x8. I also conclude that I need a...

    Wheel and Tire for Track Advice

    Well my Nitto 315s hooked like sh$t Friday night. My burn outs from long to short to barely did nothing for traction. I Spun like crazy, when I took off the tires they were smoked down hard. I guess I burned out too long and killed them. Anyone running solid axle on 99+ cobra with their cobra...

    Anyone with Solid Axle running Rear CoilOvers

    Sendero, I will bet they are 400 or more since my front springs are 750-800 since they are Eibach's 2000 Cobra R springs. Will remove sway bar. I just looked at the MM web site and the lowest rate was 200 and not 150. So 225 is good for me. What are you running up front? My main goal...

    Anyone with Solid Axle running Rear CoilOvers

    I can not recall, I did not order this directly, I do know that MM gave their advice. But it was a setup for my previous IRS. I need to find out, but I am thinking to buy a spring rate of 150, and use the koni shock adjustment. Set the shock soft for the track and stiff for the road with a 150...

    Anyone with Solid Axle running Rear CoilOvers

    I reused my Koni Shocks with the Maximum CoilOvers. These are Single Adjustable Koni Yellows. I got them set as soft as possible. The shocks are 3 years old and the CoilOvers were added a year ago, the solid axle swap done 3 months ago. The ride is exteremly rough. Rough enough that I can...

    My traction control is stuck on, any ideas?

    New button is like $28 and easy to install so worth a try. My chip has traction=off so I don't worry anymore about. I have gone through 3 of these buttons already. John

    I just saw one at the dealer yesterday and it was very cool. But with the horsepower she carries 235 tires on the rear are too small.

    I lost 3 and 4 also once. Felt like neutral in those slots. I had to drive 85 miles with 1-2-5, was real crazy. Ford did rebuilt my tranny since I was under 36K miles. Took some time to get service to say OK. Anway, not sure the cost. The receipt said syncros, can not recall if forks were...
