What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

[IndyRN]

Not as exciting as most of you guys but I took my ‘22 GT out today for the first time in 5 weeks while I’ve been rehabbing from a new knee in my clutch leg.

That's very exciting! I bet you were waiting "patiently" for your first drive after surgery.

Seeing as how the cradle has to be dropped, it would be rude not to make the rear camber adjustment a little easier ...

Big shout out to @Hotpart.com - the product looks great and found it's way from California to the sunny UK in just less than 72 hours (including a Sunday !)

Added Steeda Camber Mount rear Adjustment Kit 2015-2022 To say installing it was a pain in the ass is an understatement!

Did you put the (camber bolt) nut on the front or rear facing side of the bracket ? I'm wondering which way would make for the easiest adjustment

It was part of my kit from steeda. I did get the sway bar and adjustable end link combo but i would assume they should have come with the bar so you can actually use the other two holes.

I got the track handling pack with all the nonsense and it’s not here… shit.

Thanks for the heads up, I guess I have a phone call to make

It was exciting, thanks!

I‘ve come close to polishing the paint right off it in a couple places. Patience has never been my strong suit. Good news is, after only 5 weeks my clutch knee feels really good.

Just put a set of Michelin 305/35/19 pilot super sports on the car also added Steeda Camber Mount rear Adjustment Kit 2015-2022 To say installing it was a pain in the ass is an understatement!

Since the rotor can tilt on the studs, can't the reading be off without a lug nut or two on?

Parking brake on before removing wheels.
It’s just a rough adjustment to get the car to the shop for a alignment.

WD Pro,
It’s not gonna be easy for the alignment tech.

Going to be replacing my Pads on my 19 GT PP2 (Brembo front) and rear. So I’ve read the power stop Z23 are great pads. My question is I’ve heard not to use the included retaining hardware clips. That’s why passing on Z26 pads since the same but add hardware I won’t need. Using the included clips/hardware people have noted worse noise and other undesirable effects. So can I reuse the front hardware or do I need something like this that Steeda offers.

@Willistylz I got my hood on Tuesday and was able to install it without any issues. I know its Shadow Black and thats a easy color to match up with but the color looks great. I am not sure I love it like I thought I would, but maybe it will grow on me. I also added my new shift knob from Twisted Shifterz which is pretty nice.

Looking good, can you see a difference in the sunlight with the sparkle underneath?
otherwise for the cost saved seems worth it.

I've tried all Powerstop pads on my Brembos (z23, z26 and Z17 low dust version). Yes, the hardware is hit and miss. One set worked well, the other set literally wouldn't fit. With powerstop pads you only get the metal retaining bracket, not the bolt and nut and two pins. The metal retaining bracket wouldn't sit on the caliper correctly. I bought the OEM Ford version (which come directly from Brembo's as you noted).

I'm happy with the powerstop Z17 clean ride, by far the lowest dust levels even compared with the Z26 and Z23. Also they have great initial bite and fantastic braking on the street, with no noise. Very happy. Z17 FTW. One day soon I'll put them on the rear brakes.

Bought then applied rear brake caliper decals:

@Willistylz I do not notice it at all. Honestly it looks like it came with the car in every type of light. I took a few better ones since the garage ones.

Really well done, hopefully their quality control is the same with each paint job(same employees etc) otherwise for the cost this excellent! Looking good

I take some tomorrow. I have to put the HP wheels back on.

Ok HP wheels back on and I must say very happy with the springs ride better and the min drop is just right I can get into my drive way no problem and still jack the car up for maintenance.
