  1. Installed a Tremec Magnum XL in my S550

    That brings back some memories. I blew 2 slave cylinders before I went with the McLeod adjustable one. (Running the twin disk Spec clutch) The second time it happened, it took out my 2nd gear blocker ring so I ended up changing the blockers and shift pads to carbon and brass respectively. I...
  2. California F.S. BNIB 4.11 Yukon Gear and Ford Performance Install Kit

    Hi Rick, I added info about the install kit on the OP. I bought the install kit from American Muscle and they conveniently covered the PN on the box so it is an assumption they sent me the correct item (which should be M-4210-B3). Judging from the pictures I saw back in the day when I ordered it...
  3. California F.S. BNIB 4.11 Yukon Gear and Ford Performance Install Kit

    Bought these almost 3 years ago to put on after I did my Tremec Magnum swap but never got around to it and then got used to driving on the factory 3.73 gears. Not really sure what is a good price on this so will consider offers. Yukon YG F8.8-411-15 4.11 Gears $250 shipped Ford Performance Ring...
  4. Snapped Steeda Sway Bar

    New Steeda bar is scheduled to be delivered next Friday. I can honestly say Steeda customer service continues to be top notch, Mike at Steeda is extremely knowledgeable and definitely a people person. I appreciate the Steeda crew for helping me with this! As for now I have my car back together...
  5. Snapped Steeda Sway Bar

    Good old HAZ, coincidentally was talking to someone at work yesterday about why we don't weld the structures on the airframes for that very reason despite the amount of welders we have. Its inevitable without heat treating after. Beyond that, Steeda has always taken care of me with great...
  6. Snapped Steeda Sway Bar

    Thanks TJ! Just waiting for Mike's further response to my DM. Took another picture of the snap after I pulled it out the car. Looks to have broke right at the tack for the stop collar.
  7. Snapped Steeda Sway Bar

    Not sure if anyone has ever experienced this but just noticed yesterday while changing out my wheel hubs and half shafts that my rear Steeda sway bar snapped right by the body mount. Waiting for Steeda to respond to my message but just wondering since I was more impressed than disappointed when...
  8. Any way to lessen the force needed to open the hood? Thx

    Have had latch problems from day 1. Just learned to live with it even though it makes me look like a fool finger banging my hood latch to get it to unlatch. I've also accidentally pulled off the cabin hood release lever a few times due to the force needed. The fix for me is I typically spray...
  9. Installed a Tremec Magnum XL in my S550

    Haha I've got things I plan to do still on the Mustang, just been busy. Going to be adding a Bronco to join the stang next year.
  10. Installed a Tremec Magnum XL in my S550

    I've had the RDE lockout with the stiffer spring for close to 2 years no problems. It does take some effort to get into reverse since I have the MGW shifter with a shorter shaft. It is nearly impossible to accidentally get into reverse unless you really strong arm shift into 5th which I don't...
  11. 2015-2017 Engine cover on 2018 Intake Manifold

    Had the 2018 manifold for a couple years after the IMRC rod snapped on my OEM manifold. Currently working on a return fuel system where I want the FPR and lines to be somewhat stealth and what better place than the IMRC solenoid area that is non-existent on my car now. I took the dimensions...
  12. Steeda Billet Front Sway Bar Mount

    Ohh ok. Yeah my Steeda billet mounts came with allen heads so just assumed.
  13. Steeda Billet Front Sway Bar Mount

    Two ways. Knock out the allen portion on the correct sized allen socket and use that with a cresent wrench. Or cut a section off an allen wrench and use the corresponding cresent wrench to tighten it.
  14. Went to track help me what broke ??

    I am still on the OEM stock master. It has leaked slightly onto the interior carpet since I got the car new and have 30k miles now, 8k of which were on the new clutch. At the very least replace the pilot bearing and hydraulic throwout/slave assembly.
  15. Went to track help me what broke ??

    Had a similar problem recently. Turned out I exploded my hydraulic throwout bearing. It was completely seized and the bearing had tons of play. First symptom was after a shift and the pedal lost pressure but I was able to pump it back up. Second high RPM shift, pedal stayed to floor, and had...
  16. Tremec Magnum XL or built MT82?

    I am still waiting for some of the pieces to arrive. Sorry wasn't clear since I only mentioned in first comment that I was in dilema a week ago. In terms of components, I am going to be running: -3.73 stock gearing (may go 4.09 later on) but the slightly taller gear should be better for my case...
  17. Tremec Magnum XL or built MT82?

    I was in the same dilemma a week ago when my forth went out on my MT82. I ultimately decided on the Magnum XL since to me I didnt really want to spend 3k to polish a turd (MT82 Gforce gears.) My options were really Ben's Tr6060 or the XL but quick availability wise, I choose the XL. If the costs...
  18. PAID OFF! Celebration!

    Congrats OP! Mustang was my first ever new car purchase (and I guess first car that wasn't my parents) and I paid for it in full almost 2 years ago. I was fortunate that my college was 'cheap' enough that I never really incurred serious debt and was fortunate enough to land my dream job right...
  19. Aftermarket Gauges in PP Dash

    While the OEM PP gauges are nice, for me it was nicer to be able to have two gauges that I, as well as a passenger, could monitor. Even though the S550 come with an AFR readout, I prefer to have it on the center dash for easy reading. I also already had the boost gauge laying around which was...
