    Anyone know anything about an A/C compressor and clutch?

    jstreet, That is what I was thinking about trying out first. Were your symptoms the same as mine? Also, how difficult is to change just the clutch?

    Anyone know anything about an A/C compressor and clutch?

    I replaced the serpentine belt fairly recently- apprx. 15K miles ago. Would the noise vary if it was a belt/tensioner, or would it remain fairly consistent because sometimes the noise is ridiculously loud while other times it is just noisy?

    Anyone know anything about an A/C compressor and clutch?

    I'm pretty sure it is the ac as the noise gets noticeably worse when the ac/heat is on.

    Anyone know anything about an A/C compressor and clutch?

    I have a 2001 Mustang GT with about 85K miles. What I'm assuming is the A/C clutch or compressor has been making a squeeling/rattling/ and otherwise disturbing noise for a while. It wasn't too bad at first and only occurred when the air/heat was on. Now it has gotten worse and squeels until...

    Hey Baton Rouge! Good Stereo Installer?

    I have always bought my stereo stuff from Mobile One. They seem to have some of the best prices around, and they also install head units for free. I also like dealing w/ Car Audio Connection in Mandeville. There is Innovative Audio in Hammond, but I have never dealt with them before.

    275 wide tires on stock 8" bullit rims.

    I had 275/40-17's on my stock bullitt wheels. They fit fine, not too much sidewall bulge. They also looked much better than the stock tires.

    Changing center caps

    The wheel replica wheels will accept the stock center caps. I just did this on my 17x10.5's.

    Getting springs installed, question

    I would try to do it yourself. I just installed some Eibach's with the help of a friend. This was our first time doing it, and we had it done in just a little over an hour. It definitely helped to have all the right tools.

    How much faster?

    If you can cut that kind of 60' again, then you can expect high 11's to low 12's. My first time ever at the track, I sprayed a 100 shot Dry and ran a 13.200 at 113mph w/ a 2.4 60'. I'm obviously not the most experienced track driver, but as you can see the potential is there.

    Deep dish bullit wheels

    The wheel replicas wheel doesn't match the 02 bullitts. It is slightly off, but it does match the 03-04 bullitts as they were a little different color.

    Help w/ High Speed Vibration

    I have had a high speed vibration for quite some time now and I would like to solve the problem. The vibration starts at around 115-120mph, and it starts almost instantly. There is no problems up until this point then suddenly it sounds like the rear of the car is coming apart. It not only...

    SCT 93 Octane Stock GT Tune - Engine Knock

    I had/still have a problem with some light detonation w/ my SCT 93 octane tune, and my car runs fine w/ 87 and no tune. I'm assuming you have a mail order tune? If so, the tune may be a little too aggressive for your car. All cars react differently to mods and tuning. Call your tuner and let...

    Back from the Track for the First Time Ever

    Thanks for all the comments. I know I need a lot of practice, but I was very pleased with the trap speed. I was driving like a grandma mainly because I was nervous and everything happened so fast. Traction was not an issue suprisingly. I barely spun on the launch and I don't recall spinning...

    S281 Wing? Questions. Pics please!

    I bought an s281 wing used and had it painted, so I don't know how the quality was straight from Saleen. Mine bolted right up with no problems though, and I think it looks pretty good. I have a few pics of my car on this thread http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=498198
