If you remove the old bracket, alternatively to cut it through, there are 4 tiny tack welds at the top, which can be grind off very easy. After my DIY rubber mod the movement of the shaft is less than 1/8". Will see next week.....

Replace the caliper, rebuilding is not like in the Youtube videos where the calipers are magically cleaned form dirt and corrosion.

On my list too, but it looks like it is not only glue. Is it leather with thin foam on the back which decomposed and therefore the sagging? If true, if you don't remove all the foam particles, no glue will stick for long.

Beautiful parts..... and nobody can see it, sad..... Need anyway a window to look at the MGW shifter :)

Found that interesting video

Take a look at your SJB if you see some signs of overload, like melted plastic. In the EU red blinkers are not allowed so the import companies connected all brake lights to the line of the 3rd brake light which leads to overload and a defect of the driver transistor in the SJB, but not...

I once had a R8 V10 620HP for a whole day on German Autobahn, came back to my 2007 Mustang GT and thought to myself, what a great car, no, not the Audi :happythumbs: But, at least the ceramic brakes were extraordinary.

My car is still in winter storage, unbelievable bad weather here, I hope the home brew modification will work, I guess buying the part +shipping +tax will be around 400€. The bearing itself seems to be pretty tough. Car wizard had a Shelby with over 200k mi and bearing was good. Looking...

The idle is self learning, the procedure is in the Mustang manual. I would just watch the temps, if they are plausible the sensor should work, but it still can be off. (I had once a coolant sensor on a Mercedes that was 10 °C off, was way too rich running in the morning)

I guess it is not your first winter storage, did you disconnect the battery? Are you able to write a datalog? If yes, I would disconnect the battery to reset the idle set-up, connect the Xcalibrator to write a datalog (https://www.bamaperformance.com/article?id=201797909&cat_id=200199175), do...

In German it is also called wing, Flügel, but with feces in front, Kotflügel. It is named after the same part from coaches to prevent throwing horse poo around picked up from the streets. First car was a coach with an engine.

and the effectiveness of the brakes is going down due to the longer lever

I have the Tokico shocks and can change the compression/rebound rate. My car starts to jump around on bad roads when the damping rate is too firm and you start to lose contact to the asphalt.

Rebuild is a reasonable option if you have already all the tools and the clutch pulley (not all have clutch pulleys) is ok. Otherwise parts and tools are almost as expensive as a rebuilt one from rockauto. I got one of the last Denso 2010 alternators, which was very expensive, but I guess is a...

I have a 07 and my underbody looks a bit different than yours, also this shields are different. I guess the new full plastic version covers all versions up to 2014. And they are cheaper for Ford to make. The new 2024 has some interesting flaps behind the front wheels at the same height (?) as...
