    New Ball Joint?

    I stopped by a place, they said it was the brakes. Almost three years owning the car, and the brakes are almost done, haha. I was planning on checking them out anyway, but they said that the front and rear pads were around 10%. Makes sense, but the shop wanted to charge around $500 for parts and...

    'reset' Seatbelt?

    Another issue. My gf likes to pull the seatbelt as far as it will go before buckling it. Yesterday when it wound back up, it would not pull out at all; like there is no slack or it's stuck. I tried pushing it back in, but nothing I do will get it to unwind, almost like it's stuck. I was getting...

    New Ball Joint?

    My '03 GT, stock except for cat-back, k-member brace, and subframe connectors. For a while now I've been hearing a groaning/soft grinding noise coming from the front right wheel. It only makes the noise when I turn to the left (never turning right) and when I go over pot holes or driveways, it...

    quick question about shift kit..

    From what I've read, it prolongs the life by shortening the shift time (in which the trans is essentially in two gears at the same time, which is bad). Having said that, it should be a little quicker and/or more fun to drive. I've read that shift kits are installed where the valve body is, which...

    coming back to stang, maybe

    It might not be the transmission. It could be anything from the suspension to the engine. I'd take a test drive first, but sounds like a good price as long as it doesn't have too many miles. I miss my '94 GT sometimes.

    Doing springs and lower control arms soon.

    I'll be putting in MM LCAs, pretty sure they don't have a grease fitting. Do you mean just a lot of grease around the bushing in general? If so, I'll definitely remember that. Also, will I have to remove the strut? Thanks for all the advice, gentlemen.

    Doing springs and lower control arms soon.

    Gonna be putting in springs and lower control arms, it's been a few years since I've done them. Any tips or advice? I'll be doing the work in my driveway, so no lift or anything :( Lower control arms seem pretty straightforward, but the springs in front seem a bit tricky. Do I need a spring...

    Code P0156 and Code P0161

    Check Engine Light came on, I went to Advanced Auto and their scanner showed those two codes (O2 sensor). I'm pretty sure that there isn't anything wrong with the O2 sensor and that something is causing them to throw a code, but I'm not sure what to check first. It's a completely stock '03 GT...

    How much for a gear install?

    I'm a bit hesitant to do them, I don't have all the right tools, and definitely don't have a press.

    Window Tint for black 03 GT

    I've been thinking about this a lot too, since I have a black '03 GT also. My interior is gray, though. Legal limit here in IL is 35%, but I've been thinking of going with either 30% or 20%. Also, welcome.

    How much for a gear install?

    Forgot, went looking through all the stuff I got. It's a total rebuild kit, along with carbon fiber clutches and gear oil. I got it all from Latemodelrestoration

    My 03 mach 1 has the 460 sound system, the cd player stopped working , cant load or unload the cd's.

    They are notorious for breaking. Mine randomly stops working too; it just fixes itself. Best thing to try is turning it off and on, or unplugging the battery.

    looking for pics of painted interior panels

    Thanks for the help. I always liked the black interior of my '94, maybe I'll change my '03 to all black this summer...

    How much for a gear install?

    3.73s along with brand new carbon fiber clutches going in an '03 GT. Pretty much stock. I live about 30 mins away from Chicago (close to Joliet, for local peeps). I don't have a tuner yet, so I gotta figure that also.

    Gauge Trim Rings

    Go with the American Muscle ones. I have them, they all fit fine except one or two- I put a small amount of super glue on them so they wouldn't move around or fall out. The hardest part is taking off the clear plastic cover- I cracked mine in about 10 places.

    god bless the wife...

    Black Box was one of the best 'mods' I got for my Stang. The black paint doesn't look so bad now, but there's still a lot of bubbling.

    I messed up today, help me out.

    I would remove any and all badges on the trunk panel, then just paint the whole thing. Even if it doesn't look perfect, you can sand off and repaint only up to the edge- a spoiler will help hide it.

    THANKS FOR THE FLASH STRANGER

    And if you mind your own damn business, you won't have to deal with any bs. If you get caught speeding, your own damn fault.
