  1. Best Mods to Modernize Your S550’s Interior – What’s Your Favorite?

    simple Ford Racing carbon fiber shift knob…this is my favorite although honestly any number of alternatives would have served as an upgrade from the factory OEM knob !
  2. Broke drill bit off in block for oil pump

    i believe this was mentioned in the first page of responses, if the surface of the broken bit is in pretty deep, why not work with the ā€˜open end’ of the factory hole…drill the hole to a larger size, thread it, drill-out the hole in the pump to allow a larger diameter, shorter, bolt?
  3. Need help finding the little plastic ring on the manual stick shift . Can anyone help? Much appreciated.

    based on your first photo, perhaps you can determine tge white washer dimensions based on the known dimensions of the roll pin. just slightly ā€˜wider’ than the pin, thickness based on the photo of tge pin along with an actual measurement ( exact thickness might not be a critical dimension), i...
  4. Need help finding the little plastic ring on the manual stick shift . Can anyone help? Much appreciated.

    Also make sure the roll pin is centered in the shaft i forgot to mention, i blamed the aluminum boot hardware but i had interference with the roll pin, a few passes with a file took care of that, based on your statement perhaps i needed only to slightly move it to true center.
  5. Need help finding the little plastic ring on the manual stick shift . Can anyone help? Much appreciated.

    if i recall correctly the leather boot ā€˜hardware’ slips over that and then the knob over that, correct? i replaced my plastic two-piece-glued boot hardware with the one-piece aluminum aftermarket piece. installing the boot assembly involves clicking it to the lower white collar , the lower...
  6. Front bumper cover paint doesn’t match

    I cannot really see a great difference in the OP’s photo, here is my 2023 ordered GT Race Red, the bumper seems to match the painted metal, but you tell me if you see otherwise. Thanks.
  7. Exhaust bolts are scraping concrete garage pad

    I am not sure that I am seeing the problem in the photo, the clamp bolt does not appear to be the lowest point. That being said and assuming it is an illusion, 1) will moving the threaded clamp or removing the excess bolt length put ā€˜something else’ in harm’s way, is the ā€˜sacrificial bolt’...
  8. Fall or Spring to Change Oil on Summer Only Mustang

    Are the 2023 5.0 oil pans steel or plastic?
  9. Improved parts…

    i don’t mind spending the money up front to replace a questionable part, odds are an inferior component is not going to fail in my driveway.
  10. Improved parts…

    it would be a very nice mirror satisfying my request if outside that dotted line was ā€˜blind spot’ mirroring.
  11. Improved parts…

    thanks S550HPP, it’s not the engine that I am thinking-of as much as the accessory parts wherever an inferior material or process was used to save ā€˜a few cents’, I guess I left ā€˜reliability’ out of my opening statement, that’s where I am looking for improvement.
  12. Improved parts…

    I contacted them looking for advice, they suggested the universal F0400, I honestly do not remember if I placed mine ā€˜upside down’ but they work fine. I thought it would be a problem with them nit being in the traditional upper outside corners, but such is not the case. Here are two photos from...
  13. raise back of 2015 Mustang

    …or a couple of broom handle clamps on the underside of the trunk lid to capture one tube of the walker, when lifting the trunk lid the walker will rise right in front of you ready to be grabbed www.mcmastercarr.com would have an extensive selection from which to choose good luck with the project
  14. Oil recommendation

    Exactly, why not follow the weight on the filler cap, Motorcraft, after-all, it was specified by the FoMoCo engineers…
  15. 10 speed vs. 6 speed

    If not for the 6speed manual I would not own the car, lots of alternatives across the range of cars, trucks, SUVs…the 6speed manual V8 combination sets the Mustang GT apart from others.
  16. Is this paint damage something I can fix myself?

    but, hey, could have been worse, you could have swapped wheels pre-scrape. thanks for your response.
  17. Is this paint damage something I can fix myself?

    How did you not damage the wheel? Perhaps it’s an illusion but the wheel appears to be in a position to also have made contact with the door structure
  18. Repaint vs full wrap

    agreed, same with plastic parts on say a superduty, not bad with a color, horrendous with black. That’s why I suggested the masked color, that will give the semigloss black an intentional appearance, a finished look. Good luck to you whichever way you decide to go, you have to be happy with it.
  19. Repaint vs full wrap

    …or embrace the situation and rat-rod it! just kidding, but seriously, how about paint the hood flat black leaving some strategically-placed masking of the current gloss paint as to have the finished job appear to be a finished job.
