Hello Soloshot
I did this upgrade on my 2017 Vert
The subframe bushings are easy, easily done with jackstands
But I highly recommend doing the differential bushings on a lift, I am so glad to have a few friends with lifts
Makes it MUCH easier as the subframe has to be lowered quite a bit
And the...

I wish the whole world could be that way

Thanks guys going to shelve the idea for now
Regular maintenance and mods I'm going to do myself
With only 42k, and I don't beat on it, I'm hoping no serious problems
The electronics is what I worry about the most
Although I did get Forescan and taught myself how to make a new key (fob), and...
Thanks Crew4991 and everyone
On a positive note, a good friend and fellow enthusiast gifted me a clay barring, polish, and ceramic coat of my car for my birthday
OMG! I was amazed and floored by the results
When we were done, the car looked like it had just come off the showroom floor
I...
Thanks Cerbomark , and thanks to everyone for your response
This is a lesson to me in caveat emptor
I'm usually a very trusting person, which leaves me open to naivete
Hello Mustang friends,
I'm writing this to share a hard lesson learned. When I bought my 2017 Mustang GT two years ago, I'd never owned such an expensive and complex car. So I thought it would be good to have repair insurance. As we know, major repairs for these cars can get very expensive, and...
Pressure test revealed leaking water pump gasket
Going to look closely at timing cover seal also
Thank you all for your feedback and responses
Much appreciated
I started a new thread on this cuz I got lost for awhile, yikes
Hello Mustang friends Please excuse my chat forum ineptitude, I' suddenly find myself an old guy with little idea how a lot of this works; but anyway here goes: I promised everyone I discussed a newly discovered puddle of antifreeze on the garage floor with;
I hope this message finds you

Hi Alex, sounds like you are taking very good care of your car
IMO if you are using full synthetic oil, that might be a bit overkill, but that's ok, engines like fresh oil
If you had a recall on the trunk wiring harness (leading to Sync 8 issues) , absolutely should do
Hi Diegosuave Thanks for your quick response!
Yay!!!
My shop of choice, the fantastic Joe's Garage here in Eugene is going to pressure test the system for me next Tuesday, along with replacing the ac condenser, whose fins have shredded themselves and are falling off! Got a new condenser coming...
Thanks for quick response Dave
Car wasn't pushed hard, maybe just a wee bit, but was plenty warm, temp gauge was in middle
I have not been able to locate the expansion tank expulsion port 🤔 but that's a good possibility
From what I could see of the water pump looked clean
Thanks for the tips
Hello Mustang friends!
First I want to thank everyone for sharing their expertise on every issue that comes up. So incredibly helpful; I'm very impressed with the wealth of knowledge and ability amongst all the owners and DIY owners. Solving these problems on our own not only saves a lot of...
Hello Mustang friend
My install of the Steeda clutch spring made the clutch release feel lighter and more linear
I didn't mind the OEM spring, which is fine if you are adept at modulating clutch release
Others could not keep the car from lurching or bucking, and I share this car with my wife...
