I still haven’t found a spool and my gears are here now so I’m just going to weld it. Have driven cars before with a welded diff, and like mentioned above they’re not as bad as people make them out to be. I like the idea of marking a line on the axles. Thanks for the suggestion.

I’m using the car for drifting and wanted to lock it up to make it more predictable, at least for now while I’m still learning. I’m installing new gears soon and figured i could just keep the whole stock diff and ring gear assembly intact if I could get a spool. Otherwise I’ll probably just end...

Does anybody know if a spool is being produced for our super 8.8 rear? I tried doing a bit of searching but was only seeing them for the original 8.8.

sorry to hear about your luck with the shop. It’s crazy how shady the auto repair industry can be. Yes I was referring to the control arms in the front. After seeing the pic I’d be surprised if they weren’t bent on that side. I think the steering behavior you describe goes along with this as...

What was the accident? it kind of sounds to me like at least one of the radius or tension arms are bent, but more info on the accident will help narrow it down. Can you provide pictures?

Take it to the dealer. I doubt they’ll try to look deeply for an impact.

I admit that I have no direct experience with either, but I’d follow the advice here and get the Ford track pack. I’ve never heard of the koni srt line being well regarded. I always assumed that they’re competitors for bilstein b4. Why stray from a known good? edit: I ultimately went with the...

Had the pilot sport 3 all seasons as factory tires on my fiesta st. They had amazing grip when they were new, but after about 3k miles they lost a lot of grip and still a ton of tread left. They didn’t feel bad at that point, just mediocre. But it was more of a drop off than you’d expect from...

Is the c8 really brake by wire? I haven’t actually seen a c8 brake system to know how it operates, but I do know that electric brake booster does not necessarily mean brake by wire. The electric booster systems I have seen in 2020 escapes still have a master cylinder with a pushrod that...

Since it’s an executive order for the year 2035, does it really even matter much? Couldn’t a new governor just rescind the order before 2035? I could maybe see concern with other states jumping on the bandwagon if CA actually passed it through Congress, but it didn’t.

1. Gen 3 coyote is definitely the best engine I’ve owned. Much more power than anything I’ve had before. Seems like it has decent low end even though it’s a top end screamer. Also seems like it gets close to the same mpg as my stock 89 fox 5.0 lol 2. gen 2 LT1 in a 95 camaro. Maybe my memory...

I finally got my car back from the body shop dealing with other issues, and was able to check the booster with a magnet. You are right, it is aluminum.

I picked up my 2020 on aug 27th and noticed a small dent on the quarter panel above the fuel door a few days later when washed. Just like you there was no visible damage in that spot. But my car did have issues with damaged/defective paint in other several other areas, so it’s at the body shop...

Hey guys, new guy here. Just bought a new 2020 GT base last week. When I opened the hood for the first time a few days later, I noticed the brake booster wasn’t painted. It looked like just raw stamped steel. I know they were painted black on previous years, but wasn’t sure if it’s just...
