To Cobra Jet 's point, does the afmkt company say anything about compatibility with OEM GT fender liners? You can't assume, but then again, experience and years in this space would tell one that.
If not, looks like a case of the afmkt company not paying attention to, and letting customers...
Is that your factory fender liner? If so, makes sense it would not line up, as the OEM Mach 1 front fascia only lines up to a bespoke Mach 1-specific fender liner.
Base vs PP1/PP2 vs Mach 1 vs GT350 vs GT500 all use different fender liners.
Based on your timeline of events, looks like you bought the Cali Special new? If so, I wonder if there was no friction modifier added to the differential gear oil (or not enough of it) from the factory fill.
Seems like a rare possibility, but especially with Ford, we all know anything can...
Not sure what temps have been in Denver lately, but obviously cool ambients and new tires that may still have the mold release coating on them due to still being new, don't equal good traction. However, your issue didn't sound like lack of traction, more an issue of it feeling unsettled and...
Congrats on the purchase! I saw your other thread on it. A lot of folks will rightly point to rear suspension sub-frame bushings and all the alignment kits and inserts you can buy from the aftermarket like Steeda etc., and that might do some good to clean up some of the slop these cars have...
OP, Skye's post has a very good checklist, and I would reiterate the above - avoid, if it all possible, starting and running for a few minutes then shutting down.
It's become a misconception for whatever reason to do this, but it's not recommended, as this can do more harm than good. Car isn't...
Awesome, thanks for the info! I'm not sure if it's the same brand, but I saw an identical-looking unit on Amazon a while back, I added it my list for future buying - looks like I can use your post as confirmation it'll work decently :sunglasses:
Looks good man! Have you got any decent time on these yet to appreciate and/or note differences vs stock? (pre-bad ball joints obviously) Curious on the feedback, as I've not come across anyone who's stated anything detailed. Been wanting to do these also.
You're right, I forgot about that, lots of wheel options. Ford did great with the PP2 wheel design though.
Np, good luck. Sto N Sho updated their site recently, now we can see easier which submodel of Mustang to choose the right bracket.
Thank you sir. Yup, Sto N Sho, specifically for PP2. Ignore if you're already aware, but make sure it's this specific version of Sto N Sho:

I'm lowered just under an inch, and just make it...
Depends on what FP stuff you get. For example, I installed the M-5300-W FP Magneride lowering springs - springs only. These were made to be compatible with OEM Magneride GT Mustangs, including PP1, PP2 and also GT350, but it does not require re-calibrating. The ride height drop and spring rate...
It's a valid question, but it's perfectly safe. More reputable aftermarket companies like Steeda, and then also Ford Performance themselves, all have suspension upgrades for the Magneride cars, like lowering springs, sway bars, etc., and there's no ill-effects of upgrading. I don't know the full...
A while back, some other members who installed the Steeda adj. front endlinks and front sway bars had the same issue - try removing the bar-end of the endlink and re-mounting it so that the the threaded bolt/nut is facing outward, instead of inward, how you have it now (i.e., reverse the...
