    Tried to change my spark plugs!?!

    A bit of advice to prevent this in the future, use Nickel anti-seize on the shaft of the plug before putting them in.

    Ambient Lighting Kit Install

    I had to get the upper half of the console with the square button hole opening and the cup holders since this is now 2 pieces. Then another part to get the ring and the button itself. I cut the wires to the round button supplied in the kit and wired the square button to the same wires and it...

    My experience with front disc brake conversion (discbrakeswap.com)

    I have a set of disc brakes and calipers from my 06 Mustang GT when I swapped them for my BAER setup. Is it possible to use the 06 Mustang GT discs and calipers on 67 Fastback? I notice that the bolt pattern is the same. What parts do I need to do the conversion? It currently has manual drum...

    I need stock cam covers

    Do you mean valve covers? I have a set that I took off my 06 Convertible. I put a set of Steeda powder coated ones on. What advantage does the new cams have over the stock ones? Do they give you better performance on the dyno? I couldn't find them on the FRPP site. I have a Vortech...

    Bumpy/klunky noise from front suspension

    I am getting the same problem on my 06 convertible. I replaced my shocks with Tokico ones and Steeda springs and it was fine for a while then started to get the noise. If I adjust to a stiffer mode on the Tokico, it isn't as bad but is noticeable. You can hear it especially if you go about 35...

    Suggestions on suspension for the stang

    I installed the Steeda sport springs and they only drop the car about 1". I also have the Tokico shocks and struts and they work well. For centering the rear end I used BMR adjustable panhard rod and control arms.

    Also have the dealer check the fuel pump. Some early mustangs have had an issue with a defective fuel pump in the tank.

    Installed a Hurst shifter, and have a question

    I really like mine. It is a lot better than the stock shifter. I also installed one for a V6 however, it seems to be a bit different since the transmission is different between the V8 and the V6. Also, remember to put silicone grease in the fittings or else it may be tighter to shift and may...

    S197 Headers Install

    I have done it in my garage myself. I installed the JBA Shorty Headers. I used 4 jack stands and a hydraulic jack. Take the motor mounts completely off and jack the engine up about 2 inches. Another tip, loosen the nut on the stud first, then use a small wrench to remove the stud itself, the...

    Lowering Springs...

    I did mine without the need for a spring compressor. All you need is for the car to be on jack stands and a hydraulic jack. I put the steeda springs on mine with the BMR panhard rod, trailing arms, Tokico shocks and struts.

    Ambient Lighting Kit Install

    I followed the instructions to tap the power lead near the driver's footwell. The ambient lighting is only on when the headlights are on. I am not sure but if you tap the circuit where the automatic transmission harness is, it may be on all the time or when the car is on regardless of the...

    Ambient Lighting Kit Install

    Sorry it is $270 for the lighting kit The center console is $256 (top half of it) Cupholder $19 Button $24 And I think the harness is $160. This has the clear ring that goes in between the console and the cupholder. It has LEDs attached to it but I couldn't make those work so I just taped...

    Ambient Lighting Kit Install

    The kit doesn't come with light bars for the back seats. I didn't really care about that since I have a convertible and the back seats are small anyway. I got mine from the ford dealer for $270 plus tax.
