As stated above, its only increasing the duty cycle of the throwout bearing.
Never had an issue. If I do, I'll just replace everything while Im in there.
Always felt like an old wives tale, never experienced any issues this far into my life. Lol
2018 plus got the MT82D4 with Gen 3 Coyotes. Which has 2 overdrive gears. Overall, terrible gearing neutered the cars.
Not sure if the Ecoboost ran the same, but would make sense.
I also park autotradgics this way. Get the load off the drivetrain before shifting to park.
Especially with commercial vehicles and any kind of slope.
Driving a box truck around with my boss who was very anal about applying the parking brake lead to a lot of sass.
So I'd come to a stop...
Neutral, Parking brake on.
Despite pretty much never parking in gear, I do always do the shifter side to side (neutral confirmation) before starting.
Have been driving manual for about 24 years now. Have owned 11 plus different manual cars(getting to the point where I keep forgetting about...
Not to derail much, but going from oem bullitt rims with 255/275 MP4S to these forged SVE with 305/315 MP4S saved me like 9 lbs EACH corner. Its crazy weight savings with much more rubber.
Car keeps getting bombarded with pollen. Ugh
Just 2 weeks-ish till Carlisle Ford Nationals! Booyah!!
I gotta decide what else(if anything) Im doing to her.
Ahhh, The Bullitts and Mach 1's are back to back this year. Tucked All the way by the Corral, lmao
Seems like I've been slowing sliding down the hill a little bit every year, lol
I just looked at a bunch of designs. First weekend of June is Carlisle Ford Nationals, so I'll see a ton of different options in person. I do like the PP2, but want to shop around a bit.
Looking at the S650 Air Strakes to improve aero a bit as well.
Oh geez. Well thats tough.
Straightening out the rear subframe to "stop the hop", really changed the vehicle dynamics. Made the car track straight under wheelspin instead of instantly rotating unsafely. Theres lots of different ways to approach this, but I recommend it before power adders...
I have a Bullitt, magneride, with the FRPP magneride upgrade parts(springs and sways)/calibration. Additionally, I have the Steeda Bumpsteer kit. Plus a ton of bracing, mounts, etc listed in my build thread, in my sig, lol
I got it aligned to the BMR specs.
Wow, car has been amazing!! Super...
Sorry for bad pics, lol
Magneride Bullitt on the FRPP full Magneride upgrade kit(springs, sways, and recalibration)
SVE DHP1 Forged 10.5/11 in graphite. Wrapped in 305/315 MP4S.
New rubber!!
LMR had this sweet 10.5/11 forged DH P1 style setup with 305/315 MP4s!
All ready to rock, mounted, balanced, etc. I bought them friday, they arrived today!!
I synced the tpms, got them torqued on, and they are frickin sweet! Also about 8lbs lighter each corner than the OEM...
He can only count to eight now.
A .50BMG round is never a hammer, or a lever, its a remote hole puncher and should be treated with respect.
Idk, I hope he was drunk or something, because being that stupid while sober is alarming.
