    Looking for info

    Are there any sites with good write-ups on the systems of the 2005+ mustangs? I just graduated from my wrecked 2000 to a 07 GT and am curious about the differences. Mostly interested in the changes to the suspension setup and engine. Thanks for any help.

    I'm Baaaaack

    June 2nd: June 12: 2007 Alloy GT. 2000 Mustang held up so well in the accident, had to give Ford another go. I'd expect I'll be hanging out here a lot for the months to come. Don't have a camera, but should get pictures shortly.

    R.I.P.

    I was the driver and have nothing but a sore neck. My passenger has a bruised knee. Ford definitely earned a loyal customer. The explorer that pulled out in front of me ended up on it's roof, and the two people inside were injured, but it didn't seem to be anything too severe. I haven't...

    Transmission problem

    Not on my stang, but my dad's 98 F150. I don't know much about automatic transmissions, so I was hoping for some general advice. In park, there is no noise. When it shifts to reverse or drive, there is a rattle from the transmission area. Almost sounds like a little piece of metal rattling...

    Doing my brakes today.

    Cobra rotors/calipers and rear pads(first time ive done that) So I figure I might as well start a thread now, since every time I do any work I need to ask 15 questions before I'm through. First question...is there an easier way to get these pushnuts off of the rotor than the needlenose...

    Got my Cobra brakes today.

    Not installed, just received the box. Installing next weekend. There was a slip of paper in the box that recommended painting the "hat" portion of the rotor with high temp paint to prevent corrosion I think. What is the "hat" portion and should I paint it?

    Need some advice...rear end problem

    Two weekends ago I changed my rear end fluid for the first time. Threw in nearly two bottles of royal purple, minus spillage. I had trouble really making sure that there was enough fluid in there. I would stick my pinky in, and it would come back covered in oil, but I wasn't really sure I...

    Changing Diff Fluid

    None of the local auto parts stores stock differential cover gaskets...can I just use form-a-gasket? Neither the shop manual or bullittarchive mentions a gasket, but it is listed as a part, so i figured i'd at least look for it.

    Tire Question

    I need to get new tires for the first time and I'm looking for some advice. I have the stock 17" rims, and I'm wondering if I should go with 245 again, or can/should I put some wider tires on there? I can't go with drag radials because it's my daily driver in the northeast, but any suggestions...

    Bare metal protection

    I have a good size scrape on my fender that is down to the bare metal (story will not be told). It's been like that for a few days, and after it rained I could see rust starting to form. Until I have the time/money to get it fixed, is there a quick fix to prevent rust? and to get rid of the...

    Different 05 Mustang Models

    Pretty dumb question, but I drive a 00 GT, and I'm seeing all the new mustangs on the road, but really don't know anything about them. Are there any telltale differences between GTs and V6's like there were in the past? Also, are there any models out yet besides those two? I saw a bright...

    Off-Brand Fuel Filter

    I went to autozone and asked them for a fuel filter...didn't even think about what brand it would be. now that i look at it, there is no brand on it, its some generic thing. think it will be fine or should i return it and get a motorcraft or something? Edit: went through the autozone.com...

    Moving needles when installing gauge overlays

    On the how-to at mustangworld, it talks about taking pictures of your needles while the car is runnning in order to re-calibrate them after the installation. however for their faces, the needles were removed and replaced. I am installing an overlay, so I don't have to remove the needles...

    Steeda vs. MAC Pullies

    The only difference between these is the Mac's are piggyback style correct? is that worth the extra $50, or is there some kind of quality difference? I'm very budget conscious....looking for anything that would make the Steedas worth $50 more. ease of installation doesn't matter

    Front bumper cover removal/installation

    My haynes manual says that in removing the cover I need to drill out two rivets. It also says installation is the reverse of removal....does this mean I need some kind of rivet gun? If so, is the $20 one i saw on sears.com good enough? I don't know anything at all about riveting. It's a...
