    Steering Shaft Question (pic)

    I was under the car the other day and spotted this rubber donut on the steering shaft. It seems to be broken. What’s the function of this rubber piece and should it be fixed right away? The internet has let me down while trying to research this.

    Driveline Shimmy

    Hello guys, I have an issue that has me stumped. I recently started a new job downtown and had to travel more highways with the mustang. I noticed a driveline shimmy or vibration around 65mph in 4th gear, under load, TC locked and slight throttle. It just shook my car like my driveshaft was...

    Quiet(er) mufflers? Recommendations?

    I realize I may be the first person ever to ask this question, but can anyone recommend a quiet sounding but nice subtle tone muffler? Similar to the Bullitt muffler. I'm getting older, and my SLP LT's w/catted X and bassani catback is just getting too obnoxious. Stock mufflers would be ok, but...

    Need help! Possible vacuum leak or bent valve.

There is a chance that...

    Lost 10hp and 20tq with TQ converter...

    Hey guys, So, I recently had a P.I. 3200 converter installed and we threw it on the dyno to get a base read before I install SLP LongTubes on Monday. Now, my numbers were already fairly low for my mods( in my opinion) but I was severely disappointed to see a loss of 10hp and 20 tq. With the...

    Starter Relay fuse blew...replaced and immediately blew again.

    Ok, so I go to leave work and my car won't even make a noise when I turn the key. Stereo and lights and everything work fine. I check the fuses and the Starter Relay Fuse (20amp) was blown. I get a ride to AutoZone and get another fuse. Put it in and it still won't start, pull the fuse and it's...

    Ignition Options? Searched long and hard...

    What are the ignition options for the '99 up 2v Mustangs? Everything I found was for the '96-'98 Mustangs. So, anybody know what's available out there? I searched far and wide and found nothing. Sorry if this is a repost.

    High HP, stock auto tranny.

    Well, soon I will be purchasing my built block and then comes install of everything in my sig, plus a few extras. I have a 4R70W and don't think it will handle the power I plan on producing. I highly favor Lentech's Street Terminator and it's 700HP rating, but any recomendations on alternatives...

    Patriot heads Stage II or III?

With the addition to what's in my sig, I will be getting a built shortblock(forged internals), VT Stage II blower cams, Accufab TB+Plenum and Bassani catback. So, what I'm asking is do I really need the stage III...

    Pics of new FR500 on my Shadow Grey Stang!

    Looks sweet eh? I'm kind of glad I didn't go for the Hypercoated now. The Anthracite almost matches the color of my car perfectly. Also did the Cobra brake install. Enjoy!

    POLL: Anthracite FR500 or 18" '03 Cobras?

    The FR500's come out to be $629.80 and '03 Cobras come to $1,195. Both 18" x 9" and 18" x 10.5" Price-wise, the FR500's win hands down, but I'm completely torn on which ones to get. Anybody good with photoshop?

    Where to buy '03 Cobra fuel tank and pumps?

    I will soon be putting a Paxton Novi 2000 SC on my '04 GT. I have researched all the available options and decided, although the most expensive, that this route is the safest. So, anybody know the cheapest place?

    Will stock '04 springs fit on my '90?

    Both GT's. I'm selling my '90 and have BBK lowering springs on, but it sits way too low and they rub a lot. A woman wants to buy my car but she has yet to drive it. She is older and is getting nostalgic so she wants a old 5.0 like she had back in the day. I have my stockers from my 2004 laying...

    18 inch rims?

    Seems I can't find a good selection of 18's. I'm more traditional and prefer the 5-star over the diamond cut look, but I can't find anything that looks good. I really like the '03 Cobra wheel but it doesn't come in 18 inch. Help me out, post some pics of your 18's.

    H&R Race springs/Bilstein struts install...only half an inch drop in the front?!?!

    I ordered the Starter Box from Maximum Motorsports and so far I just finished up the front H&R springs with isolators, Bilstein struts and MM C/C plates. Although, I didn't take a before measurement, but after I was done I lowered down the front end off the jack stands and measured from the...

    Replacement 2.5" speakers?

    When you guys chunked your Mach 460, what speakers did you replace the 2.5" ones with? I'm having a hell of a time finding some. I thought about getting some 1" or 1 1/4" tweeters and mounting them in place of the 2.5's. Will 3" ones work if I dremel out the hole a little bit?
