My suspension is really better suited for road racing. However, I have the Tokico 5 ways up front and in the rear. The struts are actually the drag struts and allow me to hook pretty good at the track and handle well on the road. In the 1/8th, i'm running approximately 7.50 at about 93 mph. I...

What is a safe launch RPM for a 98 Cobra using MT 10.5" slicks with a stock T45 and cluthc? I have been launching at approx. 4500 with low 1.6 60" times. Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

Did you mount yours in place of the factory rubber stops. If so, does your hood sag at all on the corners?

Thanks. I just ordered the FMS.

Great idea about the rubber tubing. I will do the same. I have no options on my car but to remove the factory rubber stops. There is very limited room on the radiator support bracket. Thanks.

Are FMS the best hood pins? Any tips or tricks to installation regarding location? Thanks in advance.

Please post any pics of hood pins installed on 96-98 Cobra. Are FMS the best to buy? Thanks in advance.

Please post any pics of hood pins installed on 96-98 Cobra. What is the best brand to buy, FMS? Thanks in advance.

After about 700 miles on a completely rebuilt rear end, i starting experiencing a high pitched noise from the differential. The noise was only heard from 5-40 mph. When I had it on jack stands, it sounded as if it was coming from the pinion bearing area. I replaced an already new u-joint to...

Which hood pins did you buy, from where, and how much?

I found it. GL-6 is designed for "severe service involving high-offset hypoid gears". Has anyone heard of GL-7? I did not find anything on it. I though my installer said he carried GL-7.

What does "GL-6" mean in reference to differential fluid? Easton recommends this for their posi. Is GL-7 better? All I saw at the parts store was GL-5. This bottle also said MT-1. Anyone know?

I dont think that was a very good idea. However, im glad you havent had any problems. Further research is indicating that there is a break-in period. Easy driving for 10 miles, cool for 30, and repeat at least 3 times. Then change fluid after 500 miles. Has anbody heard this?

Does it matter if it is stop and go driving or on the interstate?

Does anyone know if there is a break-in period for a NEW FRPP ring and pinion? If so, how long? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the support! I went ahead and purchased a new FRPP ring and pinion today. I also ordered a new TA Girdle. I am still debating on where to take my car for the install. I really did not like the attitude from the original installer. Rearends are one of the few things that I have not...

The noise occurs all the time. However, if the car has been sitting for a little bit, it takes about 1 mile for it to occur. It makes the noise during straight line, cornering, accelerating and decelerating. The pitch gets higher with speed. It is only heard from 5-40mph.

I just had my rearend rebuilt in November '03. Parts include Eaton posi, moser 31 splines, and all new bearings. The only used part includes my FRPP 4.10 and the axle bearings. After maybe 600 miles and about 7 trips down the strip, I noticed a high pitched noise from the rear end. I replaced...

I have a whine in my rear that appears to be coming from the rear u-joint. It is only heard from 5-30mph. My aluminum driveshaft is only 4 months old. Has anyone else experienced u-joint whine/noice? Thanks in advance.
