    Removing Gear Selector Stuck in Park

    So, that TCI ratchet shifter? Yeah, total piece of shit. The lever broke off in my hand this morning, and now the car is stuck in park. I'm not too concerned about swapping the original back in, except for the fact that the FSM says the selector needs to be in neutral, and I can't get the TCI...

    Show me some locations where you've mounted switches!

    Just like the title says. I want to mount 2 or 3 switches for some electrical stuff; where are some good locations on the '10-14 models that look good, aren't in the way, and don't require disassembling the entire cabin?

    Learn Me Batteries

    My battery is coming up on 5 years old, and all my Motorcraft batteries have always taken a dump right around that 5-year mark. I'm getting ready to do some stereo stuff to the Mustang, and I remember years ago (like 15 years ago), Optima yellow top batteries were the bees' knees for high-draw...

    How much to get fascia resprayed?

    Made the mistake of taking the Mustang to work on Friday. The highway got milled ("grooved pavement") overnight. Normally that's not a big deal, but there was a ton of debris on the road. I ended up with two scrapes on the driver's side, a couple dings in the hood, and my front fascia looks like...

    SYNC: "Bluetooth Media Disconnected" FIX

    This happened to me on the way to work this morning, and I wasn't able to figure it out until I got home tonight. Basically, my phone would connect to SYNC, but it would not stream music, and phone calls had no audio. The fix is right here. Yes, that's for a Phord Es-cah-pay, but it worked...

    Replacement Hood Struts

    I bought the MMD Hood Strut Kit from AM about 4 years ago. The air struts have started getting weak. (I discovered this when my Mustang decided to slam his hood on my forearm.) I contacted AM about getting replacement struts; they told me I'd have to buy an entirely new kit, though they did...

    I <3 BMR Suspension

    The clunking in my car turned out to be a sway bar bushing that had failed. I have the HUGE BMR front sway bar (1 1/2"), and I wasn't able to find bushings that would fit in any of my local stores. I called BMR on Tuesday night and asked to buy a new set of bushings. They wouldn't take my money...

    Quick EPAS Question

    The FSM says to disconnect the power plug to the EPAS unit before working on steering or control arm components to prevent error codes in the software, damage to steering gear motors, etc. Does the EPAS have to be unplugged there, or can I simply disconnect the negative battery terminal?

    Help Me Diagnose this Clunk

    I'm getting a Clunk from the front right when that wheel goes over a sharp bump (like a manhole cover). The left side sounds fine. I checked the end link on that side; the bolts are tight. The end links look to be in fine condition. Here's a video: 3sl0KymPL4M Details on the car...

    Coyote Spark Plug Change

    Just turned over 50k miles. Sure, the plugs are supposed to last 100k, but I drive this car pretty hard. I'm going to change the plugs out this week. I already picked up 8 OEM Motorcraft plugs. Anything to watch out for? Do the Coyotes have the issues with plugs seizing and breaking like on...

    A Max-Effort Build

    When they discontinued 5.0 Magazine (which had decent tech articles), they switched my subscription to Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords, a rag containing mostly car show builds and information on racing in a straight line. The "tech" articles are clearly sponsored by poseur brands such as Steeda...
