    What have you done to your mustang today?

    Drove the car with the factory fuel pump in, got it OBD-ready and got the state inspection done! Sucked driving it all light throttle to stay out of boost, but got the job done! The tune is amazing! 5 minutes of driving and it was OBD ready! :biggrin:

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    I had an issue a few years ago where my '13 wouldn't go OBD ready. Drove the OBD cycle countless times over 1,000+ miles, still wouldn't go ready with the rear O2 sensors and the cat. Ended up driving the car with the tuner in the passenger seat datalogging, he made some changes to the fuel...

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    Got my warranty claim approved for a replacement Jegs fuel pump, and ordered a replacement. The next part belongs in the "what pissed you off today" thread: Pump is on backorder. Estimated delivery date is 8/20/26. This wouldn't be a big issue except I need to get my state inspection before...

    That catch can looks like a Billet Technology design, but it might be a UPR since they copied those designs pretty closely back in the day. They used to be known as Unauthorized Product Reproductions, lol.

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    Drove it to work, trying to use up some of the fuel in the tank since I have to pull the fuel pump. My Chinese 2-year-old pump that I got from Jegs for about $120-$130 is no longer reading fuel level correctly. I was at a light the other day and my "miles to empty" went from 56 to 348 while...

    Nice. What's the thickness of that radiator?

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    I put together 2 emergency repair kits for our Mustangs for the clutch master cylinder rod eyelet that is known to break, rendering the car undrivable usually. This kit would allow me to remove the broken plastic piece, install the aluminum replacement piece held in place with a set screw, and...

    That's awesome! What tire sizes did you go with?

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    I drove mine to work yesterday. It had been a while since I had driven it. The gas prices really put a damper on things, barely drive my truck anymore even. Mostly driving my wife's '19 Golf Alltrack 6-speed, a car that's fun in its own way (tuned, AWD wagon :D ). Yes, the Advancetrac is off...

    For 19x10/19x11 wheels I would do either 275/40/19 or 285/35/19 on the front, and 305/35/19 on the rear.

    You might want to look into the LMR SVE lookalikes, which are 19x10 and 19x11. https://lmr.com/item/WTK-188913G/sve-mustang-sp2-wheel-tire-kit-19x10-11-graphite-g2-05-14 From what I can find the OEM PP2 front wheels are 19x10 5" with a 24mm offset. That's a recipe of them sticking out a good...

    S550 PP2 wheels are gonna stick out quite a bit on an S197 especially in the front. They kinda stick out a bit even on the S550. You're gonna want to do some research on the width and offset of those wheels before you buy.

    Have you checked the upper bushing on the rear diff? It's an item that's often overlooked and by now they're usually cracked to shit. I used the Prothane kit when I replaced the one in my '13 and in my wife's '08

    I really wish the cover was cheaper, this was $269, but buying it through LMR they included the correct bolts. From what I read the cover doesn't include bolts normally.

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    It came with the kit from LMR. Yeah, planning on using it with the RP and then ordering another bottle for when the Amsoil stuff will be going in, even though the Amsoil stuff has built-in friction modifiers too. The clutch pack was replaced about 8-10 years ago with new Ford parts. Car...

    Received some new goodies for the wife's Shelby. It always feels so good opening up new car parts :D BMR upper control arm, Ford Racing diff cover, Ford Racing 3.55 gears and install kit. I usually hate anything Royal Purple, but gonna install this stuff and use it for break-in, then dump it...

    Nothing wrong with "better safe than sorry". And no, it definitely won't hurt to have it. Welcome to the platform. I love the '07-'09 GT500. Many times I thought about it and wish that I bought a used GT500 instead of a new GT when I bought mine. But I still love driving mine too, so it is what...

    The driver side catch can does nothing on these cars. Had one on my wife's '08 GT500 and after a few months there was nothing in there so I sold it. The driver side is the air that goes into the crankcase from the air intake tube, so there's no oil in it.

    That sounds like tire balance is off.

    Ford tech I used to work with when I was a Service Advisor at a local dealership here in NC. He was their transmission tech and shop foreman. Been working on cars 40+ years. Works at a different dealership now and I've been out of the business for a while, but we kept in touch and he lives less...

    What have you done to your mustang today?

    Got the rear pinion seal replaced today in the wife's Shelby. New pinion seal, new pinion nut, and almost 1 quart of fresh Amsoil 75W140 diff fluid. We also decided we'll be swapping the 3.73 gears for 3.55s very soon. Gonna have the same tech do them that did the pinion seal today.
