    Shaker scoop on an 05?

    Check this article about Coletti leaving SVT: http://www.detnews.com/2004/autosinsider/0412/12/D01-30684.htm Now, in the picture of Coletti to the right, he is standing in front of what looks like a sonic blue 05 GT, but with a shaker hood scoop. Or do I need new glasses? :D

    Black Bullit-style wheels with center spinner?

    It's from the accesories catalog for the 05 Mustang. Salesperson at my dealer showed them to me. There's different colors, but one is shiny black. Would look awsome on a black GT. Anybody got pics of those? Thanks! Philippe

    Used AOD. Worth anything?

    I just had an AOD to T-5 swap done on my 94 GT. Now, what do I do with the used AOD? It's got about 90K miles (140K kilometres) and a stripped lock-up shaft (3-4 shaft). Is it worth anything? Or am I now the owner of a very large boat anchor? :) Thank you! Philippe

    Steeda.ca... again!

    Well, fair is fair. Last time I made huge stink because it took quite along time to receive my order. This time, it went better, so it's only fair to post that experience too. For various reasons, I decided to order from them again. Double-hook clutch quadrant, firewall cable adjuster...

    O Tranny gurus, I implore your help!

    Here's the problem. Since this morning, my automatic tranny won't shift pass 2nd. When I left for work, everything was fine, then a few blocks from home, it had trouble shifting to 3rd, finally did with a fair bit of noise then I immediately lost 3rd totally. The history is that the tranny...

    Lug nuts keep coming loose on one wheel

    3rd time now. Always the same wheel (front driver side). The first 2 times, the wheel had been put on by my mechanic. The last time, by me, and I VERY carefully torqued them to spec, following a star pattern. What could be causing this? Thank you! Philippe

    Car is crooked?

    The rear of my car is not level. I thought the new suspension parts would fix this. I just installed new springs and shocks/struts. Then I noticed that it still seemed crooked so I used a tape measure to measure the height of the fender lips above the center of the wheels. The front is...

    Stupid balljoint question

    The balljoint on the LCA, do I press it down or up to remove it? To me, it looks like it should be down, but I saw a howto for a Ranger, and it looks like they where saying up. And Ford tends to be similar for stuff like that from model to model. Thank you.

    Brake bleeding with ABS? PIA!!!

    Brake bleeding with ABS? PITA!!! Ok, nobody laugh please, but after owning the car for 18 months, I just found out that is has ABS. The reason I just found out is because they've never worked and I don't get a light of any sort in the control panel when starting the car. First winter I had...

    Cleaning calipers?

    I have the front calipers out while I'm redoing the front suspension and was thinking about cleaning them, maybe even painting them. Any tips, tricks and ideas on the subject? Thank you.

    Front brake shield - removal?

    The shields on the front knuckle, what the heck are they held with? Seeing the "bolt" head was hollow, I thought it was a Torx bolt (the whole set-up is very grimmy, so I couldn't really see). It's obviously not a Torx, but the "outside" of the bolt is round. Please help. Thank you.

    Wobble in steering. What's causing this?

    When I brake, the steering wheel "wobbles" slightly back and forth. The car doesn't pull on either side and there's no pulsing in the brake pedal. At first I thought it was warped front rotors, but then the pedal would pulsate too. What could be causing this? Thank you! Philippe
