Gear shop is getting ready to rebuild and set up my diff. He said the Ford performance gear specs calls for .011 to .016 and he would feel comfortable setting it at .011 but would set it lower if I wanted. I have always felt there is too much back lash and can hear the clunk sometimes when...
For various reason ive had the sub frame out 3 times, but man what a pain it is. So Im getting ready to replace gears in my diff and wanted some thoughts on just dropping the rear part down, can the diff be removed easily that way or should I drop the whole sub frame again?
The last time I did the rebuild on my irs differential I had no problem getting right parts but now ive gotten my self a little confused as to what rebuild kit is right for the irs as there seems to be a difference with solid axle or irs. Like do all 8.8 rebuild kits fit the irs ? also there...
A few years ago I changed to a Torsen diff with stock gears. I had a local shop set it up using a new rebuild kit that had a crush sleeve. When I installed it there was a bad whine on acceleration so I brought the car back to shop and they tightened the pinion nut. That worked for a while but...
Ok so ive gone thru many posts here and other sites and there seems to be no real answers. I ask what 6 piston upgrade front calipers without buying the complete kit are available. I have seen some Brembo and otheres with kits but not just the calipers. I have seen ford focus rs and Cadillac...
I know brake pad post have been worn out in the past but wondering if anything new. Im currently running Power Stop extreme carbon fiber/ceramic pads with Power Stop Cryo rotors, they have worked pretty well for me and run very clean, but I have never been happy with the initial grab/bite no...
Ok, first of all I know many here are not in favor of a canned tune, but here is one from SCT that is 50 state leagal and supposedly California compliant C.A.R.B.. I have tried a Bama tune and didnt like it and it wasnt c.a.r.b. approved. Here is one that I think is recently new, has anybody...
There used to be one but now along with the c.a.r.b. certification it is required that a c.a.r.b. certified tune go with it. From what I can see no company has that? Am I missing one, is there one out there?
Im thinking of upgrading from my stock 17" Cobra wheels to the 18" Saleen style wheels--the price is right but they weigh 27lb!!! are there any other options in this price category? I would have liked to stay with an 18" Cobra style but doesnt look like there is one...
How do you replace, does it just pop off, what is the best replacement?? here is one on ebay that says its a factoy original?
Mustang Cobra 1999-2001 Intake Plaque
I see lots of post about cat delete and straight pipes, but what kind of sound with muffler delete with cats still on board?, and is there a resonance inside without stock muffler?
Some of you remember when I did the magnum conversion and I was unhappy with the shifting. I finally switched back to stock shifter and started using Tremec MTF (fluid)----what a difference!!!. Well one thing I didnt mention is that I had gone through 2 after market reverse lock out electronic...
Went to Cobra Bobs web site but nothing opens up, I did email him. Im going to be changing out my shifter and would not like to use silicone, Is there a gasket available some place?. Ive searched a lot and cant find anything. --- guess I might have to call Tremec.
Im thinking of using a remote controlled cut out switch in the trunk wired to the fuel pump inertia switch, who has done this, here are two listed below but not sure if they would work or if there is something better?
Couldnt do any posting earlier today and keep seeing the notice----ATTENTION you may experience intermittent issues for the next 60 to 90 minutes as we perform maintenance and upgrades.---?????
As most of you know I had to replace my fuel pump and with issues removing and installing. but i got it done and car is running fine. The Deatcsh pump makes a crazy noise when turning key on. there is about a 1 second screech, Is this normal? I know that the Deatcsh pump has what as...
Just thought this could be an interesting and debatable topic. To me my car is more a fastback than a coupe. It has the short trunk lid like the other fastbacks and the back is almost sloped as much as the other fastbacks. The side window is almost like the other fastbacks, if the window...
Went for a drive yesterday, Car was running great, got home and shut it off in the driveway, a little while later I started up to pull in garage and I barely made it in with it running real rough and would hardly Idle, I shut it off and 1/2 hour later I went to start it one more time and it...
As some of you have seen from my prior thread I was asking if coil overs gave a better ride and the majority said no. So I decided to try out 6 cylinder springs. I was a little worried what it would do to the handling but I wanted a Smoother ride. It turned out to be a good decision with...
I have stock springs with one coil cut and Tokico D ajustable shocks but want a better ride. Can you get a SIGNIFICANT better/smoother ride with coil overs, if so what brand is best for this. Wanting to keep it 1 1/2" lower than stock like it is now.
Ive tried H&R sport springs...
I have removed and change my springs and shocks several times but needing some clarification. Which way should the end of the lower pigtail (lower open end) face, does it make a difference?
The lower bushing in the shocks sticks out more on one side, should that go against the mounting...
Tomorrow Im getting a(first time for me) road force balance and its supposedly going to be done by an experienced guy, how effective has this been for you who have had this done? Also should it be automatic that they dismount and re-position all tires. From what I see the majority say it...
Not wanting a debate or comments about whether under-drive pulley sets are worth it.
After installing Steeda pulleysl Im having an Idle problems-----when I start it up cold it settles down to regular idle around 750-800 rpm but if I turn the AC on the Idle goes down instead of up like normal...
I installed my Magnum and went for 50 mile test drive, Not going to do a step by step install guide as there are many of those but here is my review and what Ive got so far.
Purchased the D&D magnum trans kit one year ago, I just finish the install and with the aluminum drive line that came...
