Install was easy, put in freezer overnight, removed factory bushing and then knocked the Steeda bushing in. Used a large socket and a ball peen to tap it in. The removal of the old bushing is a pita! On my ‘14 I removed as much of the rubber as possible using a 3/8 drill bit( it was damaged to...

I used the same as you. Actually quieted mine down! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Where you have your lift pad on the left front is not a proper lift point. It will easily crush and bind up your k-member. This can affect alignment among other things. Lift on the frame rail or the jack points along the pinch weld of the rocker. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What’s different about the front lca’s? Sway bars are completely different sizes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So, they changed it in 2011 then? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well Layla is stepping up in the world already! Her mom got her this black 2014 GT today specifically for her to autox! F….ing spoiled little brat! Lol! She really is coming to her own in auto x and has gained much respect. And now she has 2 S197s at 15 years old! Sent from my...

Isn’t it amazing how fast time goes by. I’ve had my 05 GT for 18 years now! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Went and beat on her a bit at autox. Brought home the goods for a change. It’s been a while! I’m happy to be the quickest mustang at the event once again. That too has been a while. The changes to the rear of this car that I did last week made all the difference! This car rotates through the...

I should have changed mine years ago! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is really nothing wrong with that bushing shown. If it’s a daily with only a burnout etc. occasionally I’d leave as is. If you launch hard you want at least a urethane bushing to eliminate wheel hop or road course/autox then I recommend the spherical. However, I think just the feel of the...

The short answer is yes it’s a press fit. To install the Steeda spherical bushing, remove the old bushing and thoroughly clean with Emory cloth. I put the new spherical busing in the freezer over night, once ready to install I just pound it in with a brass hammer and a 1 3/8” socket. It...

So, on the Steeda bushing that I am using ( see previous post with link) you remove this metal sleeve. It is a bitch to get out without the proper tool and with the rear end still in the car. I have done it on two now. On the 14 I reamed out the rubber and inner sleeve as much as possible and...

Alright, if you are going to drag race and street drive only, then the route that Gabe went is the perfect route to go. However, you've done a lot to prevent wheel hop and you've freed up the rear to pivot front to rear and up and down. Great for off the line and acceleration. But, not it will...

You must have the 11-14 uca bracket to use the corresponding uca. It relocates the mounting point 1” forward. The stock 05-09 uca is 8.5” long from cl-cl of the bolt holes. The 11-14 uca is 9.5” from cl-cl of the bolt holes. The newer(longer) uca and bracket are a direct replacement for the...

So, the 11-14 UCA is 1” longer than the 05-09. I’m not sure which way the ‘10 falls. This sets the attachment point on the bracket 1” further forward. This don’t sound like much and really isn’t, but it’s enough to make the rear work much better and smoother. Also, I installed the Whiteline UCA...

Ok if you have an 05-09 and haven’t done this mod, you are missing out!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Last night I installed a 2011-14 rear upper control arm bracket and Whiteline UCA on my 2005 GT. I’ve heard they are better because of the longer UCA. Has anyone else done this? Did any modifications have to be made for the gas tank. It appears to be really a right fit, maybe even touching. Just...

Yeah, my airbags are done. I was hoping to use the ones in the new seats. Honestly don’t even care about them other than don’t want the light. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank y’all for the info. I was hoping it would be a little more of a plug and play install. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought so too, but couldn’t find anything. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Has anyone installed the front seats out of an S550 into a S197? If so, how do they fit and what difficulties did you have? What about air if plugs, seat heaters, etc.? I found a set for a decent price. Any help is appreciated. I’m aware that the rears won’t fit, I’m only interested in the...

It does, especially young people, they usually walking around drooling and talking about it, discussing year, tire/wheels, etc. and then they get to the front and go, “holy shit it’s got a bullet hole! A real bullet hole!” Cracks me up every time! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

When I bought this car last September I had no expectations of really trying to make a nice car out of it, but here we are! It’s looks way better than I ever expected or intended. It still is a 20 footer, but I’m pretty happy with it so far. Even with the bullet hole! Sent from my...
