I think I would have pulled over and pushed the gabby passenger OUT of the car......
I know you’re having a blast driving GT 500’s all around the track…….. all good fun and games……. And a great video……. but I’m really looking for feedback on that Bassani cat back, and how it holds up to no air pump. So can you please get focused on the task at hand here!!! Lol And get that Foxbody running around town again!
I worry about my hood all the time after hearing so many stories of them flying up…… I don’t blame you there!!Ok, so the high has worn off a bit (kinda). Back to the fox.
I have to give LMR credit. 4 months after purchase and even after being installed, they agreed to take the MRT hood strut kit back without much hassle. 20% restock fee however. Given that the kit was $140 and barely held the hood up, i'll take it. Not sure I would feel comfortable selling it to someone given how I was dissatisfied in how it did the one things it's supposed to do. Anyway, $112 is probably better than i would have done selling it on Ebay.
Starting to work on finishing up my fender and bumper alignment. I discovered that my bumper and fenders are aligned about 1/4" offset to the pass side. I found this out when i went to bolt on the two bumper header panel to rad core supports. They were aligned when i took the car apart, so I need ot work on aligning them. Unfortunately that means loosening up everything and trying to shift it all over to the driver's side. I'm trying to avoid taking the nose off to get this done.
I still need ot install the hood latch and safety catch. I took that off so i can align the fenders and not have to drop the hood to get it to catch to see the fit. So no cruises down the road yet given nothing holding my hood closed.
I think one of the SS braided lines rubs. These Stoptech/MM lines are shorter than the Goodridge lines i had before, which gives me less flexibility in my install. I may have to swap these out. My C6 calipers have the banjo location lower, and I might need that extra length.
Inner fender lines also need to go back in once the fenders are fully in place.
The list is getting shorter. TBH the fact i don't have a hood latch is the major reason no real test drivers other than turning it around in the street and such.
Isn’t this how Ford did it back in the day1/4" off? ? Ain't that within factory specs???
I feel your pain.It will bug me for years if I don’t get it right. It will be front and center every time I pop the hood
I see that bug bugging you.Maybe not quite 1/4” but enough to bug me.
Problem is you just can’t grab the bumper and shift it over. Just not quite working.
All those creatures that don’t exist on Long Island is seriously one of the reasons I’m reluctant to go south!!
