What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

Finally got some time on the lift and got my G-Trac brace installed.

Drove it to work today and needed to fill up for the first time this year.
Nearly choked when I got gas. I only put 45L (12gal) in. This station was one of the cheaper ones too. Sorry, car no 94 for you today. Conversion: That's $8.33 a gal for 91 octane.

Don't hit the rim itself. One light punch is typically enough to unstick it.

heh tell that to the road-side support truck who had to go find a 8lb sledge to get the rim to 'unglue' itself.

some extreme cases are not covered . one might want to upgrade to 4x4 to add some mass.

my cars usually get wheels swapped twice a year before and after winter, but wheels sometimes still refuse to go off without a slap. anti-seize on drums seems to be making sense, but I never tried it.

yeah, two bucks per liter of regular fuel is pushing it to a point when some life decisions need to be made. I think it will just get worse in near term.

Lowered it on BMR Handling springs. Did the black accent package conversion and MP Concepts decklid panel. Roush axle back Wednesday. Gloss black roof wrap next week:

this is 2ed time, 1st was another dealer that replaced the engine but apparently fucked it up... it was there for 3-4 months....

I made a post in the Issues forum, but its making a grinding when slowing down. Sounds like large bolts in a bolt cleaner thing... and when in S mode if i switch from 1 to 2 it lunges... i thought it was trans but they arent sure. Its got 1200 on new engine and 13k on the car itself...

What was your process to remove the oil filler neck? Ima too scared, I read plastic tabs might break off inside. Call me a sissy.

Ok I finally did it! LOL. So there looks like there is a tab that locks it in… I’m assuming this is the “click” everyone hears when removing. I also assuming it is single use by design, so no re-installing. Pics for those that care:

What’s up with the Rustang?

makeshift drift car.

They are a reasonably rare sight in the U.K. now, I bet aren’t many over there !

I'm so grateful I get to see one in person here.
