    tired of that dookie base model steering wheel?

    If you sell your stock one back to Grant, it ends up only costing $200 for the wheel.

    tired of that dookie base model steering wheel?

    Well, I took the plunge and bought one of these. It arrived today and it is really nice. Got it through Summit for $385 and it came with a purchase offer from Grant to buy my stock wheel for $185. Ending up paying only $200 for this wheel was totally worth it. Will get pics up later tonight...

    tired of that dookie base model steering wheel?

    I'm seriously considering this one. Replacing the steering wheel in my 98 was one of my favorite upgrades to that car...

    How much did you pay for your 2011 GT?

    You're right about the X-Plan price being non-negotiable. You may want to try and haggle the price without using the X-Plan. The sales guys I worked with for mine told me that 9 times out of 10 they can beat the X-Plan price without much trouble.

    How much did you pay for your 2011 GT?

    If you can get on the A-Plan you can get down to around 29K from 34K. That's exactly where mine ended up. Only catch for the A-Plan is being a family member of a Ford employee.

    Strut Tower on the 2011 5.0 Stock?

    It comes stock with 19" wheels so that's why yours has it. 18" wheels don't get the brace.

    Sync system and USB connection?

    Just wondering if anyone has had an issue with the USB connection in their cars? I've noticed that when I have my iPod connected to the USB port the music occasionally cuts out when driving, almost like when a CD skips. It's doing this while sitting still or driving on smooth roads. Everything...

    TPMS

    I just want to make sure I understand before ordering my new wheels. Can I put the sensors that are already installed in my factory 18's on my 2011 GT in the new wheels, or do I actually have to buy new sensors? From what I've read it looks like I can re-use the sensors already installed, I...

    New old guy here...

    Well it's been about 6 years since I visited the site, can't believe it's been that long since I sold my 98 V6 Mustang. I'm jumping back into the pool here now that I'm finally getting back behind the wheel of a Stang. I will be picking up a 2011 GT Premium on Wednesday afternoon, just...

    how do i remove brake rotors 98 v6

    Try spraying them down with brake parts cleaner on both sides of the hub. Cobra 232 is right, they're just rusted in place. I had the same problem getting my front rotors off. Brake part cleaner, then a 2lb sledge. Just make sure you hit the rotor in different spots, (think star pattern for lug...

    What % Tint??

    Yep, check your local laws. Here in Virginia the rear windows can be (I believe) 60%, while the driver and passenger windows can go to 20%. And as 85GTLover said, the windshield is a no-no.

    CD player broken, Ford blames Flowmaster

    That is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. If you follow Fords reasoning on that one, any car with subs in it would cause the same thing. Resonance of the exhaust? Give me a break. I better go rip out my subs cuz the extra bass will probably shake components loose in my CD player. Dude...

    dirve shaft removal ? howto?

    To get the 4 bolts off the diff end, I recommend using a torch. Those bolts were put in with the Red Loctite. The red stuff isn't supposed to release until you heat it up to approx 450 degrees. I used a torch on the bolts first, and they cracked loose with no problems. Just don't leave the torch...
