What have you done to your mustang today?

[Gabe]

Looking good, What's next to get hydro-dipped?

Thanks!
Next? Nothing on my car for a while ... I want to paint my calipers some color that will soften the outside darkness of the car, and also looking into changing the wheels again, lol

 

[Kuplex]

Washed it. And a isolated monsoon just came through. Figures.

 

[Riptide]

Makes you feel any better I took my DD to the touchless twice in a row and it was sprinkled on the next day. $20 down the toilet.

Dropped it off to get all the seals and bearings in the rear end replaced

[ford20]

Nothing.

 

[dark steed]

I stopped by and looked at it on the rack getting the rear end bearings, races, and seals replaced

Haven't even seen mine today.

 

[SpeedDemonS197]

Changed the oil

Installed the new belt tensioner that finally arrived today (rockauto order, went for the cheap DHL-involved shipping which turned out to be a clusterfuck, DHL delivering it to the local Post Office which then took 2 days to bring it to me).
Went to install the new main serpentine belt, it was over a foot too short.
What sucks is that I ordered the "main belt" as they listed, same part number that Tasca's site was also showing as being the main belt.
I didn't order the accessory belt, which I would think to be the belt that only runs the A/C compressor.
I'm now returning that belt and buying a Gates belt from the local O'Reilly in the morning, so I can finally finish putting the car back together

New belt inside the old belt:

Called the local Ford dealership, turns out the belt I need is a BR3Z-8620-D, not this BL3Z-8620-D, and that BR3Z part number came up after I told the part person the engineering part number that was on the old belt, BR3E-8620-KA

Installed new radio:

Finished Steeda X brace

 

[Gabe]

Just got back in from working on her, got her all buttoned up this morning, new Gates belts, new Gates idler pulley to replace the Thump Racing pulley, topped off coolant systems, and ran her for probably about a half hour.
No leaks, and according to my Aeroforce gauge the coolant temp was staying right about 185-186 degrees, and that's without altering the fan settings, which I have yet to do.
Happy so far.
Still need to flush the brake fluid, and see if i can flush the clutch fluid somehow.

Pictures and video coming up!

 

[o2sys]

Going to be installing my new breather tank.

 

[D98GT]

Got rolled up by a Zx14r on nitrous after he stole the hit

Now I don't really know what I can do to fix that problem but it's not fun losing haha

 

[cbass]

Replaced the faulty tpms sensor. I go to a ghetto shop, like, used tires $15 a piece installed on hoopties. But I'm in the industry, so I know the gems... standing around, while the one dude puts my wheel on the baller machine they got to do the chrome 26's and 28's, and a dude rolls in with some racestars that need 275 radials for the street class at the 10k grudge night tonight. It's the telltale sign that the owner is a gear head from WAY back, and uses the majority of the work they do to keep supporting the niche market that chains and most independent shops ignore.

I picked up 2 Gates K060825RB Blue Hypo belts (6 rib)for the blower side. If I get time this week a 170* thermostat and belt on before the AM Saturday show. They are the equivalent to the green 10 rib belts.

 

[travelers]

Nothing.

Did you get the car back together? If so are you going to the AM show at Maple Grove?

I wanted to get one of the blue ones, it was over $80 compared to about $20 for the regular one.
I still might, but couldn't justify the expense just yet.
Going with the 3.125" pulley soon, might need it then

Dropped it off for a full detail - getting ready for Mustang Memories Show at Ford World Headquarters.
