    Swap from automatic to manual, how hard is it?

    Just out of curiosity, how hard is it to swap from an automatic to a manual in a '96 mustang gt? My car is automatic now and I found a manual tranny with clutch assembly, and flywheel, out of a '96 cobra. I know a guy with a pedal assembly and a clutch cable. I can find a shifter and the...

    Any harm from turning an automatic upside down?

    I have another 4R70W that I am going to put into my mustang. Before I do, I'd like to change all of the fluids, install a front and rear seal, and install a new tranny filter. I figured this would be easier to do outside of the car. Would there be any harm done if I put it on a motor stand...

    Rebuilding my 4R70W...Any advice?

    Ok guys my '96 Mustang has a slippy 4R70W that needs to be rebuilt. I got another good 4R70W from a guy for free but it's from a '93 Mark VIII and I haven't received confirmation yet that it will even work in my car. I have decided to take out my tranny that I know is compatible and rebuild it...

    Shift kit or tune for stronger shift points?

    Just out of curiosity, is it possible to have the computer tuned to adjust for stronger shift points. Similar to what a shift kit does? If so, how does that compare in price to the shift kit.

    Questions regarding AODE B&M Hammer Shifter Installation

    I bought my '96 GTS with the AODE slipping pretty bad. I had considered converting to a 5 speed but after watching videos and reading reviews of the B&M Hammer Shifter (81001) I think I would be very happy with it. Plus, it would be a lot less work. I found another 4R70W transmission that I...

    I need confirmation that this transmission will work

    I have a '96 Mustang GT with the automatic AODE transmission. It slips pretty bad and a guy I know has one from a '93 Lincoln Mark VIII. He says it's the same transmission, I'd just like to have confirmation that these are indeed the same transmissions.

    Anybody sell a '96 AODE Rebuild Kit?

    The AODE slips in my '96 GT 4.6 and I'm assuming the clutches are wore out. Ultimately, I want to switch to a 5 speed but for right now I'm going to try to fix my AODE. Does anybody know where I could buy a rebuild kit for this transmission? Also, I have a general idea of what to do but any...

    Mustang missing after trying to start without transponder key

    Okay so I have a '96 mustang GT and the other day the only transponder key I have broke. So I found a way to bypass it and use a regular non transponder ignition cylinder. While I was testing it, the car would start for a few seconds and then die out (part of the anti theft PATS system) So...

    Well the least coolest thing just happened to my car

    So here's the deal. The guy I bought my car from apparantly lose the original key for my '96 GT. Yes I said '96 meaning he had to have a new one made with the microchip. Anyway to make a long story short, the key he had made was cheap and looked like it came from a cereal box and now half of...

    Would a 2" drop be too much on 18s?

    Hey guys my '96 mustang looks like a 4 wheel drive lol. I've seen where people recommend not dropping more then 2" but I haven't seen what size wheels this is recommended for? I have 18x9 and 18x10 bullets. Would I have an issue? Also if anyone has any pictures with this combination and feel...

    Weather seal gap? Need ideas on how to fix this issue

    Hey guys I just bought a '96 Mustang GT and I am in the process of changing the interior over to black. I noticed that the driver's front and passenger rear carpet is damp. I think I've found the entry points. The front looks like it's leaking through the grommet where the hood release cable...
