  1. Front Struts with no Spring Perches?

    Good idea. I'll try that. Thanks.
  2. Front Struts with no Spring Perches?

    Does anyone know if there are any front struts available without the spring perches? I have been struggling for years trying to get my S550 lowered properly in a fashion where the left and right are even and the front is just a tad lower than the back. After struggling with one particular brand...
  3. Post Pix of your S550 with aftermarket wheels and tires

    My baby got new wheels & tires from Discount Tire yesterday: König Ampliforms (black) 19x9.5, 35 offset Continental Extreme Contact Sports 265mm 40 R19 Very happy so far.
  4. Subframe Threads Torn Up?

    Oh man, that was so long ago. I want to say that the subframe was still dropped low enough that I was able to get around it. I'm 90% sure that was it. If you're having the same problem, please take your time and go slowly. Might not be a bad idea to use some cutting fluid if you can get it in...
  5. Coilover Questions

    1. I am leery of purchasing another set of springs and getting into the same situation. 2. I would like to have control over my ride height and adjust it to my liking both front and rear. 3. I would like to have at have at least some rudimentary control over damping. Thanks for the info. I...
  6. Coilover Questions

    Hey everyone, I have had a set of progressive lowering springs on my car for the last 3 years. I've never been able to get the ride height correct (left side is great, but right front is significantly higher than the left front and right rear). The ride is acceptable, but definitely on the stiff...

    Good to know. I'm tentatively planning a square setup with 19X9.5" rims, +30 offset, 265/40 tires. I figured the offset should negate the extra width. Only reason I was really concerned is that I'm lowered about 1.2", but it sounds like I'll be fine. Thanks for the info.

    This looks awesome. I'm considering buying these same wheels (9.5" wide Ampliforms). Any problems with clearance or rubbing on the fronts due to the wider tires & wheels?
  10. Mustang "Lithium" Battery Electric Prototype Signals Future With 900+ HP / 1000 FT-LBS Torque!

    Interesting. Based on the lower capacity compared to Li-ion batteries it sounds like supercaps won't be replacing them anytime soon as a primary storage medium. But it sounds like they would be a great choice to augment them, by shunting all regen energy into and out of them.
  11. Mustang "Lithium" Battery Electric Prototype Signals Future With 900+ HP / 1000 FT-LBS Torque!

    If you want to pretend that EV concepts aren't useful, that's certainly your prerogative. But like it or not gas engines are on the way out (as they should be), although the transition will probably take much longer than it should especially in the U.S. Anecdotal, but I'm Gen X and I would...
  12. Battery Terminal Corrosion - Normal?

    Thanks for the info! I will double-check that everything is tight.
  13. Battery Terminal Corrosion - Normal?

    Hey everyone, I recently had to replace my battery (3.5 years old) which is no big deal. BUT, when I pulled off the plastic battery cover I was surprised to see a chonk-load of corrosion around the negative battery terminal. I cleaned it off and replaced the battery and everything is fine...
  14. No love for the 18 eco, need more Mod options

    You're stating this as if it's fact, and most of this likely is not. It's one thing to say that [insert item here] may not carry over simply because the aftermarket manufacturers haven't updated their literature or because no one has looked up the 2018 Ford parts to confirm they are exactly the...
  15. Powered Subwoofer Install w/ Pics (RF Punch 12)

    GTs, GT350s & V6s don't have the mic. Also, it's not an issue for EBs running the Ford Performance Tune, as I believe that disables the sound enhancement. I definitely recommend adjusting the crossover. Flipping the polarity might not hurt, although I doubt it would be helpful unless you...
  16. Powered Subwoofer Install w/ Pics (RF Punch 12)

    I just used the velcro. So far it hasn't budged.
