What did you do to your Mach 1 today

Same here.

Another option is if he is open in supplying the file and printing yourself (home, online shop).

@moondocks also asked about the files. Mentioned that to my buddy but no response yet.

It's like Christmas in March!

I vaguely remembered I had brand new car parts somewhere that I bought several years ago. A lot was going on back then so I completely forgot what I even had.

I first turned the garage upside down and found nothing. Then I went through the basement storage area and in some deep corner hidden under a bunch of empty boxes I found this!

Installed Steeda jacking rails today. Used the factory bolts and only one from Steeda, since the factory looked much more heavy duty. I have one question though for those who did the same.

There was a quite a bit of a seam sealer around the front bolts. After considering either to cut the sealer and risk an "unsealing" or mount it twisted, I chose the former. Then I realized it might have been actually painted over the sealer, so I might have cut to the metal (was not able to tell with the artificial light I had). Should I protect it somehow?

I just did these, and opted to use a gasket scraper and a small hammer to chisel the sealant off. Seemed to me that paint was underneath the sealant. I do not think there is any risk of unsealing, as the bolts clamp the panels together anyhow. If you did in fact scrape the paint down to bare metal, probably not a bad idea to either put a dab of silicone sealant over the scratched area and then bolt up the rail, or blast a little bit of gray/silver spray paint over it.

Let's see what we got...
- Steeda IRS Rear Subframe Brace
- Steeda Jacking Rails (wow, those were cheap )
- Steeda Clutch Spring + Perch
- Ford dual horn I think

Dang, I was really hoping for hood struts!

OPG/CS?

OPG/CS?

Nope. Speaking with whipple the gen 3 opgs and cs are no different from the Ford Performance piece. They have a 2018 on e85 with a sealed engine stock opgs putting down close to 1000

About to lose my mind here...I ordered the Stop the Hop Starter Kit, too? No idea where that is and why I bought the Rear Subframe Brace alone

Just a few clicks and a CC, you can make that happen. Nice find, now you have some work to do.

Man, Steeda hood struts are now $150 (with St Paddy's Day 10% off). I used to be able to get 1.5 jacking rails for that

But seriously, what hood struts do you guys recommend? I've heard Ford Performance and Redline aren't that great?
