What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[Sig556]

Would it be a front or a rear?

Front.

Ha ha, I do the same.

I get just as much pleasure form just looking at beauty of the Mustang as I do driving it.

I’m right there with you on that & I’m sure We’re The majority with that feeling too

Why don't you just take it to work? I think these cars are great daily material unless you have it set up for track use.

It's 74 miles round trip. Parking sucks. I don't want the miles racked up. Nor do I want to deal with door dings and such. I work at a facility with 30,000+ people. It's not setup for track. Bmr minimal drop springs and 20s. Pretty basic.

I daily drive mine well I used to before this whole lockdown happened. If the distance to work is reasonable it's definitely worth doing in the Mustang. Could you just do alternate days in the Mustang so it gets used but doesn't add a pile of miles to it?

I don't like driving it to work for the reasons stated above. It's more hassle than it's worth.
I drive it on days I have like errands to run or such. It gets driven 1-2 days a week, maybe less.

I'll give you that the 68 is the best looking Mustang of all time (come at me), but what do you have that's faster? The Lightning?

The lightning ran 11.40s 200+ whp ago. It's significantly faster than the mustang.

deleted the sound tube and plugged with a kit i bought off cj pony parts. don't know why guys are messing around with that 10mm nut. i pulled on the whole thing and it yanked off with minimal effort

Looked at her sitting in the garage today.
Took her out yesterday, so I'm good. Tons of pollen out. We just started getting it last week.

Yesterday I met up with a client to see how his wrap turned out and planned a new project.

Cleaned up under the hood. Painted the covers. Color doesn't match exactly to the body but closer than it looks in the picture.

When you changed out your pads front and rear are they the same ones or different part numbers for front and rear?
Do you happen to know the part number or numbers ?
I am so tiered of cleaning the front wheels !!!! rear wheels don't seem to get much brake dust at all

Yes - they're different. Here are the part #'s:

Fronts:
Z26-1792 - For the 6 Piston Brembo's

Rears:
Z26-1793 - Rears are the same on all GT's

blowfish bracket just came in. Wow what a unit. People weren't kidding when they said it feels like it will outlast the car. Will hopefully get it installed sometime in the next month

 

[dn1984]

Just for future reference you can also get a chair leg end and a 1 inch plug from home depot for less than a buck instead of buying a kit which is just a rubber chair leg end and a 1 inch plug LOL

And yes to the bolt. heck with all that trying to take it out. one good yank the whole thing pops off and doesnt even break it just slips over the nut. easy peasy

yeah I just like the look of the cap instead and whenever I tried looking for stuff at home depot etc. in the past they were always out of stock

by the way, I can tell 0 difference in sound. i like having less clutter in the engine bay though so that alone is worth it

Just installed an aFe dry filter. The old one was probably the original and never changed by the PO. Banged it against a wall and a lot of garbage came out. SUPER fast shipping, too! Ordered yesterday about 9:30am and received it today at 12pm. It is a tight fit. Had to loosen a hose clamp and maneuver it a bit, but its in there.

Changed out my OEM wheel nuts for some Gorilla black ones. The original ones were already starting to “ swell” making it hard to get even a 12 point 13/16 socket on. A good excuse to buy these as I like the look better! I ceramic coated them before installing of course!
