Ok cool. So just cut the connector off of the new wheel since its useless. Got it.

Now I just have to wait 2 months to put it on....

And find my soldering gun

Do any of the Mustang steering wheels have the radio controls on the left?

I find it idiotic that Ford thought it'd be a good idea for the more-often used controls to be on the right, requiring you to move the hand off the shifter anyway, same as reaching forward to the radio itself.

They should've had the cruise on the right, radio on the left

you could probably rewire the buttons how you want them. only issue is labeling.

Won't be making it today boys. I've gotta go build war machines.

Billy, getting the plow ready for the foot of snow Friday?

 

[gtpony]

Can anyone suggest an honest/reliable shop on the south shore
where I can have my lowering springs put on and the alignment checked?
I'd do it myself but I dont want to be messing around with the fronts, whereas; i have never done a spring swap before.

I know of one shop but they are primarily a foriegn car shop, and no way
will I ever bring it to a dealer. I would consider Tasca, but they are a bit out of the way.
Thanks

call MPE in Taunton Tell him Billy and Kevin sent you over.

 

[HellsBells]

Chris at MPE will sort you out for the springs. He knows a ton about cars and especially mustangs. Like kevin said, let him know kevin and i sent you (im billy)

Wait ~1000 miles before aligning though.


Brian:
I was gonna go to mpe this Friday........

Well they are forecasting 1-2+ feet of snow.

Feet

Id be careful and check the weather, might be smart to re-schedule?

 

[HellsBells]

Oh of course. If I see any snowfall I'm not going anywhere.

I may take a real slow drive around the block if there's snow so I can test my snow tires.

 

[Captainstr8edge]

how is your clutch? can you slip it a little starting off? as long as your not hitting the gas too hard you should be fine. of course if it looks really bad I wouldn't go anywhere, but a couple of inches you should be fine.

Lolz, let us know how that goes.

Taking notes on all the stuff in your tuning thread? Seems to be a bunch of good ideas.
