Did the 60 000 km (~38 000 miles) service yesterday. I think mine is the most driven 2015+ Mustang in the country (Sweden). Would love to be proven wrong about that! :first:

While I was there, I test drove a 2018 GT cab A10 magneride "fat seats", as it was the only 2018 they had for test driving, and I must say I was not impressed! It felt very vague and floaty to me. Didn't have a good feeling with the road. It was also constantly shifting, with poor throttle response.

I don't know if it's the magneride, or the A10, or the fact that it was a convertible with its added weight..? :shrug:

I was told later that the magneride can be adjusted with the Mode toggle switch, so maybe it can be made more firm? I though putting the transmission in S did the same trick, but maybe not?

For comparison, my car is an GT fastback A6 lowered 1", Recaros.

I'm kinda glad about this experience, as I will not be wanting to upgrade. Also the price here has increased about 100 000 SEK (10 000 USD) since two years ago.

Put the new Corsa Sport axel back on.
Washed it.

The tips are too far to the inward side. I guess I need to try to bend the hangers a little to center them better. Both sides are the same. Definitely not centered.

My corsa xtreme looked exactly like that on my 2018. Had to get the muffler shop to modify it to get them centered.

Did you secure it using the factory panel clip?

I bought one off Amazon and neither the clip it came with nor the original one hold it in properly :frusty:

I have an axle-back ready to install. I figure the odds it won't align perfectly off the bat are pretty high.

So a question for mind readers (since this probably varies shop to shop):

What are the odds a shop will charge the same or close to it to "adjust" things as they would have to do the whole job? I always picture them thinking "came crawling, huh? Gonna teach you not to try to deprive me of my livelihood next time" LoL

I paid $75 to have my Roush AB installed, it is perfectly centered, looks factory.
Then again, this shop has been in business for over 40 years.
