Got my fluid installed today, drove about 30~ or so miles.
What a joy it is to shift now. The nibble & bite seems to be mostly gone now, and engagement is buttery smooth. Still the occasional 2nd gear nibble from time to time, but for the most part it's a night and day difference!
Everybody...
Just got my progessives put on, and they feel absolutely AMAZING!
About how much should it take for them to settle? The drop is already perfect imo, should I be expecting a little more? The back looks pretty flush, but the front is still a little bit higher.
I think yellow is one of the only colors that can pull of stripes really well. I like them. I'd like them more if they didn't have the GT part, but either way, looks good to me.
Got my Steeda progressive springs installed and my BG Syncoshift tranny fluid put in today.
The car feels like a complete animal on the road, now. It feels SMOOTHER than stock, and no more wheel gap!
As far as the tranny fluid, if you're on the fence... DO IT. The shifts are SO buttery and...
Thank you so much!
Again, pardon my ignorance, I just want to make sure everything is done properly. I've had horrible experience in the past with shops that don't torque things down, and as a result I've had a lot of squeaking and creaking. :doh:
Understood, but I don't know how to correlate the names of the bolts/studs to the actually ones that are going to be removed/replaced when I get my springs installed at the shop.
I don't want the shop to just impact them on without torquing them down correctly...
I think these are the correct...
Hey guys! I got my Steeda progressives in the mail, and I'm having a shop install them tomorrow. The shop requested that I bring in the torque specs if possible for everything they'll be removing/adjusting, and I'm not too sure what exactly I need.
I looked in the torque spec thread, but I'm...
I can agree with this 100%.
The other day I was in sport mode, and started blasting through the gears for fun on the highway. Assumed I was going the speed limit, but the speedo was definitely a lot higher...
These cars are extremely smooth, they don't feel as fast as they truly are.
If they're starting to fall off of these cars that are barely 1-2 years old, I can only imagine in another few years what could possibly happen if they actually do come off during driving... ford might want to reconsider some recall options.
I just got mine on. Applied a good amount of force while holding/pushing the fluid reservoir towards the tube.
I just hope that the tube isn't being pulled too tight and causes the rubber to separate...
If there's excess stress on the line from being pushed further onto the nipple, wouldn't it cause extra wear and eventually ruin the hose/remove the fitting from the nipple? That's my fear... I don't want to make things worse and end up with a headache.
