    Driveshaft - transmission - u-joint angle ?

    I just came in to read this thread as I have just ordered the JXB Performance Centre Support item directly from JXB (with the softer street rather than track option). I have a GT California Special 2008 with 119000 miles way over here in Australia (imported it new). Over the past 2 years...

    Hello Everyone, can anyone assist with their own experience re installing Steeda G-Trac brace (front) on Mustang GT S197? I’m just checking (before).

    … just thought I would come back and comment post-install. The install went well. Looks great. No issues re unexpected NVH. All in all, I would really recommend the install.

    Stainless steel brake lines.

    Very informative thread. I’m looking, right now, to order StopTech SS front AND rear brake lines for my GT 2008 California Special (way over here in Australia. Purely for highway driving, purely for ‘preventative maintenance.’ I can see the front set is offered various places, though not...

    roush intake?

    Great thread. I have just been researching the Roush kit for my 2008 California Special. Just one (very conservative and cautious) question…. I currently have the OEM engine air filter and air intake setup. If I wrapped my OEM air intake tube with a heat proof adhesive wrap, that...

    Hello Everyone, can anyone assist with their own experience re installing Steeda G-Trac brace (front) on Mustang GT S197? I’m just checking (before).

    Thank you JC. Thank you 86GT351. Very much appreciated. When I completed some more internet investigation, a couple of drivers who have had issues with the Steeda G-Trac brace seem to blame it on wrong bolt torque, or mounts that need updating or aftermarket exhausts (which I do not have)...

    BMR K-member vibration

    Thanks for your words there. I’m really happy with my 4 or so (already installed) Steeda items. Though as noted, the 2 detailed reviews on the Steeda site cautioning re vibration at the 1-2,000 rpm range with the G-Trac item has motivated to explore the issue further. I’m after max ‘tightness’...

    BMR K-member vibration

    Thanks for an interesting issue. Separately (though similar), I just ordered and received the Steeda G-Trac brace to install on my GT 2008. I intended to install it to further ‘tighten up’ the vehicle. However, now I am a little hesitant to install after reading two reviews on the Steeda site-...

    Hello Everyone, can anyone assist with their own experience re installing Steeda G-Trac brace (front) on Mustang GT S197? I’m just checking (before).

    Hello Everyone, It’s Adrian here from the Blue Mountains, way over in Australia. I have a GT California Special 2008 (115000 miles) which is a true joy. Over the past year, I’ve completed two big phases of improvements- mainly focused on tightening up the chassis and reducing body roll...

    Thanks very much for all those constructive comments. That will help me a lot. We imported the GT California Special 2008 (had it converted here). It’s traveled 115000 miles on the Australian roads and I have really begun to research proactive maintenance projects- primarily to assist...

    Good luck with your investigations Luna. Sorry, I don’t have a diagnosis- I’m also a junior member and have limited knowledge te such issues. Though you have posted on the right forum. Wishing you luck finding the solution.

    replacing panhard rod and rear sway bar bushings

    Thanks MoD. I note your comments re replacing the entire panhard bar rather than just the bushings. That makes solid sense. Looks like I have another worthwhile ‘refresh’ task for my 2007 California Special. For me, I’m going for 5 priorities- longevity, handling, performance, comfort...

    Strut Tower Brace Questions

    Great question- how to find a quality strut tower brace that clears both the manifold and hood. I am now exploring this modest and sensible mod for my Mustang GT 2008 California Special. I have just purchased the Steeda option- it’s on its way to Australia as I write this. I will have it...
