    Those "not So" Good Vibrations...

    Same as I have every other time I have taken them off. I used to swap MT ET Streets on and off at the strip, so I am familiar with the swapping process. When I first felt it this am I thought I had a flat. Checked the tire and it appears fine.

    Those "not So" Good Vibrations...

    Ok, so I changed out my back brake pads yesterday/this am. Ran into an issue with the ABS turn and press piston but I got that all worked out. Got the pads on and put everything back together. Went to test things out this am with a few quick stops. Everything is great at subdivision speed aka...

    Changing brake pads... where to grease?

    Bit of a necro probably but I am swapping out my rear pads on my '03 and am running into what may or may not be an issue at the moment. I bought the tool to use on the caliper, but not a single side of the cube tool fits my caliper. They are stock '03 and for the life of me I cant get a single...

    Low Coolant light

    Alright guys, Im a bit confused... My low coolant light came on the other day when I started the car. I checked the radiator and reservoir. The radiator was fine with fluid, and the reservoir was only a bit below the full when cool mark. I added a bit more fluid, but did not want to...

    mustang week CRASH thread!!!

    Thats actually what did him in. He lost it to the right, over corrected, then lost it to the left, hit the brakes and then the SUV. If he would have just lifted off the gas he could have probably completed a 360 and been ok, but by hitting the brakes you basically screw yourself in that situation.

    well i figured out where my drivetrain clanking is comming from.

    Its in the bellhousing. They typically go out way before a clutch does. If your tough on the clutch then the TOB is likely your culprit. Typically if you can deal with the noise its no big deal. My factory TOB never really squeaked but I replaced my clutch and all at about 16-18000 miles...

    mustang week CRASH thread!!!

    There are a couple different angles of vids going around. Cliff notes of basically what happened are as follows... He looses it and it angles slightly towards the crowd. He panics, over corrects and looses it towards the stopped cars. He then nails the brakes and its over then. Car skids...

    well i figured out where my drivetrain clanking is comming from.

    If it goes away as soon as you put the clutch in and doesnt come back until you let it out, I would say its the throwout bearing. If its getting hard for you to get in gear, check your clutch cable. It could be starting to fray, or something. I had mine go out on the freaking highway. I...
