So I have a modified 2016 Mustang, primarily buffed suspension; the full thread for the build is here but here are the highlights as it pertains to the front;
Ford Performance Track Shock and Strut kit (been on the car for 5+ years)
Steeda Front Roll Center and Bumpsteer kit (2+ years)
BMR...
Scrapped the curb pretty bad trying to thread between two delivery trucks on a 1.5 lane road in the middle of a proper monsoon helping a friend deliver stuff.
From what I can find online, the repair is tape the edge, clean/degrease the wheel, sand the edge with something like 120 grit flapper...
So, a while ago I got a pair of switchback LED turn signals for my mustang since I did a foglight delete at the front (replaced with a brake cooling duct), and last Thursday I noticed the turn signal click (the one that sounds like a horse trot) was off, but only turning left. Went outside and...
So I have a twofer jumping off a issue I'm having with my steering gear and wheels; my current one is suffering some sort of problem (not sure what but it's giving off the DTC codes C1B00:00-0B, C200B:61-08, U0415:00-48) and I need to get a new one.
The one suggested by Lakeland Ford for my...
Hi all,
I was at a track day at Palmer Motorsports Park yesterday and after a couple laps in the first session, everything seemed to go wrong with my car. The power steering failed, a warning light that says "Service AdvanceTrac" appeared and the traction control lights flashed on. I pull into...
I've been having this issue for a while, but it has advanced at this point.
After a diff swap and some possibly shoddy work, my car starts vibrating at above 40 mph, increasing intensity with more speed. Vibration is definitely coming from the rear of the car, wheels and tires are brand new...
I've been trying to mount a PP diff out of a 2019 Mustang GT to my non-PP 2016 GT, really since springtime.
It's been plagued with issues since being mounted, but here's the short list;
A whining noise at highway speed immediately after mounting. Shimming and backlash were checked. Everything...
Selling my old set of winter tires, they have served me well after two winters. Tires have seen a total of around 9,000 miles and have around 10/32 tread depth left. Tires worked amazingly, not only on snowy/slushy/icy roads, but during the actual Nor'easter we had back in December. Wheels have...
I swapped in a Torsen 3.73 rear-end from a 2018 Mustang into my 2016 by Fortes in Framingham. (the input flange from the 2016 diff was swapped onto the 2018 diff) The diff was dry, so BG Ultra Guard 75w-90 with the slip modifier was put in.
Immediately on driving home, I noticed that the...
So, I think the title says it all; bought a A129 dual dashcam setup and a hardwire kit and set it up so that the camera was constantly recording, and now I'm getting a message that says "system off to save battery".
Now, I know the issue is drain from the dashcam, but is there any way to...
Title says it all, I basically am looking into creating a set-up for the Department of Boost GT550 kit to make a daily driver that will see occasional track day/auto-x use. Dyno-queening is not the goal at all. Numbers mean little, usability means everything.
Basic requirements;
Run on pump gas...
I recently bought a set of track pack Brembo caliper and disc set from shelbyauctions, presumably off of a track pack GT that got the Super Snake treatment. I'm just wondering if there is anything that is concerning in the pictures? The brake pad being that crooked doesn't look right to me, but...
So, my Mustang is currently at 25k, and the brakes are starting to look a bit tired, but maybe with a bit more life in them.
In any case, I want to do both a fluid flush/change and change the pads/rotors, but the questions is what ones to buy.
Requirements - Daily driving (including MA winters)...
Apparently Ford switched from Orange coolant (VC-3-B) to Yellow coolant (VC-13-G) starting this year. My coolant reservoir is a bit low, and I'm just wondering if it is alright to add the yellow coolant so it is a mix? Ford has said there should not be a issue, but can anyone confirm this? I've...

Backspacing; 179mm (7 inches)
5x114.3 bolt pattern
Suggested tire size; 305/30_19
Looking for $700 and a even split on the...
So, I'm planning to start prepping my "new" 5.0 for the Massachusetts winter in November, and I'm already planning to run 235/50 R18 Bridgestone Blizzak WS80's on the stock rims, but I want to protect the undercarriage from rust as well. The fly in the ointment is that next spring, I want to...
Hello everyone,
So, I've bought a 2016 GT, and come next spring, I want to upgrade the suspension on it.
I've got a set up imagined for it, but I'm not sure if it's any good for what I need from it;
I want for the suspension to be able to work in the Massachusetts winter with 235/50 R18...
