What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[loubear911]

It is A LOT easier from the top. I did mine yesterday also, but decided to make it a lot harder by not making it a dual horn, but by putting in an air horn.

Put a Strut Tower Brace on that I bought off Ebay from Shelby Motors out in Las Vegas. Argued with 3 dealerships that the size nut they were telling me to use was not the right thread. Hunted down the right ones, so here is a picture of that part also (They are 10X1.5 NOT 10X1.25)

Also replaced the whimpy single horn with an air horn. Is it obnoxious? A LITTLE! Is it over the top? YES! Did it save my '19 Mustang from being hit by a teen that was texting and driving this morning? HELL YEAH!!!

40% ceramic tint on the front windshield today, don't HAVE to wear sunglasses when driving now...probably still will though.

Well yesterday, got back from vacay and went to hell's kitchen and played with the big boys. I'll post a video soon.

Did you take the airbox out or go from underneath the car?

I’m changing mine this weekend

I didn’t remove the air box and did it from the top. The captive nut for the one bolt is not affixed to the body, so you need to secure that to hold it in place. I could only get one arm in. I used some gorilla tape on the back of the the nut to hold it secure when I removed the bolt. It was tricky holding the new assembly and the bolt in it as I moved it into place, and started the bolt. Once it caught I was then able to use my 8mm socket on 1/4” drive to tighten it up. Good luck!!

thanks for the tip! I was worried about losing that nut into the engine bay abyss lol

Tried replacing my broken reverse lockout only to find the aftermarket shift know was installed with loctite. Tried getting the knob off with a strap wrench. Not only did it not budge I managed to break the shifter boot trim.

Old belt and a pair of channel locks? Or just put in an mgw?

Nice. Are they curved to match the fender or count on tape/glue to bend them to the curve?
