    Strange brake noise, hot front brakes

    So I did rebuild them about 4 or 5 years ago. Drove it today about a half hour and seemed fine. Began t storms just as I got back home so I skipped jacking it up. Temps on both front rotors were 350 to 400 hottest being at the edge of the rotor. I decided to go ahead and get a set of the...

    Brake pistons won't retract

    What else needs to change with the cobra brakes? Easy as just swapping calipers and rotors? Problems with wheel clearance? I have aftermarket wheels so theres no way to know if they will clear I guess until it's done.

    Strange brake noise, hot front brakes

    Such a pain to jack this car up. Have to drive it up on 2x6 to get high enough for a jack and then find a way to avoid dimples in my asphault. But I guess I'll have to do this tomorrow.

    Strange brake noise, hot front brakes

    Recently having some trouble on my 99 GT. Stock calipers, SS brake lines, has drilled slotted rotors but just changed back to regular. Brakes were getting very hot in front to the point that it was dragging and I would have to get on it to be able to go almost like fronts were locked up. Using...

    Paint and Body Fox Body Painting 101

    Hi I happened upon this thread just now. Went through about 10 pages or so, what a great idea. I don't have time to get through the whole thing right now although I'm sure I will eventually. Do you have any tips for dealing with the window trim seals? Specifically I'm painting the roof only on...

    1997 GT - 5.4L 4v Navi Swap / Build-Up Thread

    Awesome thread. I actually have a navi with that tritonn 5.4 too. Quick question... Are the bolt holes on that lower intake threaded into the aluminum or are they sleeved? I ask because I'm getting a vacuum leak after changing removing and reassembly. I know I need to tighten down the upper...

    Professional Product Typhoon Intake Manifold

    A few short bursts of starter fluid while it's running will show you where leak is. Don't spray too much. But you'll know when you spray that certain spot and the engine revs up.

    What does the coil pack Capacitor do ?

    Interesting. Where is that located? Because sometimes I swear I can hear my supercharger in my radio. Wonder if it's bad.

    New factory seats that fit 99-04

    Not really into these old seats. Even changed to cobra foam I don't see that much difference. Looking to change it to something more modern but really not a fan of aftermarkets. I have some seats I pulled from a 2016 charger that are heated/power so I'm going to see if I can perhaps create some...

    New factory seats that fit 99-04

    Wondering if anyone has found nicer seats from a newer vehicle that will fit in 99-04 mustangs. Seems like a newer pair of seats might be easier/cheaper than re-upholstering the old seats. Perhaps get some nicer heated and power seats. Just a thought I have every time I open the door and look at...

    99 mustang gt

    Had that happen to mine after some hard driving. T stat gasket was leaking slightly, but enough to let antifreeze get to some coils. Check for wetness around your coils. If not still probably bad coils. No check engine light?

    New Project, Need Help

    So much cheaper to just start with a GT. The suspension is another hurdle if you got past all mentioned above.

    I got some from 88rotors on ebay pretty cheap and probably 5 or 6 years ago they are still working well. Think it was like 100 or less. then some caliper paint...

    Progress Thread The Arrogant Bastard ( '01 Gt )

    Between the heads and under the intake there is a big space that could hold a bunch of coolant, would probably overflow at the back of the engine over the tranny I would bet, not having looked at one of these in a long time without intake.

    Paint and Body About To Get The Gt Freshened Up A Little (now With Some Pics)

    Nice that their standing by their work. I had mine painted probably around 2012 with HOK but they used this "great new clear" I think OMNI or something like that. It didn't fade like that but about 3 years after the new paint job my 2 yr old kid did some drawing down both sides of my car with a...

    Higher Amp Alternator How Much Higher?

    Wow thank you for the very detailed response. I think rebuilding my own would be a cool project, but I have a ton of projects that have been on the wait list for way too long so adding another just isn't possible right now. Probably not cost effective for me either as I'm sure it would take me...

    Higher Amp Alternator How Much Higher?

    Hi all, been a while on here as I did a lot of mods a few years ago and now been just enjoying the car. And letting it rest in the winter. Anyway I have relocated the battery to the trunk a while back, and all is good with it, but I think my alternator is on its way out. I think its working too...
