Don't waste your time with an IR temp gun. It only reads the surface temp and will give you meaningless data. You will want to use a pyrometer with a probe that sticks into the tire at least 1/8". Additionally, pull into the hot pits with hot tires and take the temps. Not after a cool down lap...

14.7 + 3 ?

Don't know how fussy you guys are about alignment, but to me it is very important. A few things you might want to consider if you have adjustable RLCAs and PHBs: 1. In relation to bushing type/material, us a protractor when setting pinion angle. 2. When "centering" the rear axle with an...

Those wheels look just like a direct knock-off of the BBS racing wheels.

They are on an 2008 Mustang GT FR500S. FRPP lists them as "2005-2014 MUSTANG COMPETITION FRONT BUSHING KIT".

We spent the better part of Saturday on these darn bushings. Had them on and off so many times that we wore out a set of bolts. Whoever made these for FRPP must have been using a yardstick as a measuring device. This pertains to both the set on the car and a brand new set of arms and bushings...

A question for those of you running the BOSS 302S FLCA (M-3075-RA) with the Competition Front Bushing Kit (M-5638-C): With no other suspension components attached to the arm, and moving the arm up and down within its range of motion, how much "bind" do you have and what do you believe is...

Very good condition. Located in Northern New Jersey. Pick up or shipped OK. $500 plus shipping.

Is it possible to get a little more info about the "machined" rear calipers that removes the threads, I'm guessing, so that they don't have to be turned in on pad change? TIA.

Did you weld on the shock bodies with or without guts inside?

Dave, thanks, great info. Had the Circuit, now in a Pro-ADV. I agree with you on the halo containment. BTW-the Pro-ADV will give you a little more headroom from the cage in a Mustang. It's just the way they mount, meaning where the bosses in the seat are comparing the two. I'm a little on...

You are correct in stating that I need to be more specific. Believe me, I was cringing when I wrote "stuff" because I am usually very specific and meticulous. The ambiguity comes from not really being able to see under the dash, and as you know, it is kind of tight under there. The car only...

For safety, I am trying to install a right side net in a track prepped 08 Mustang GT. As I understand it. the forward net strap goes through the vent in the dashboard just to the right of the guage cluster and then goes forward and ties off to the left-to-right upper cross bar inside the dash...

According to your last post, you didn't get anything at all out of this thread. You might want to consider listening to Norm, he knows what he is talking about. Changing a suspension component usually has to do with its engineered specs and how that matches related components, and the car as a...

What I don't get is, how is that "awesome" as he said in the video? That wheel could have outright killed him or another driver.
