Ditto the sentiments on the RXT. I’ve had one in my car for years. On the track or road course, it’s fine. Hold the power and handles the abuse. Daily driving it? No way. I do not want to daily drive it or even occasionally drive it sitting in traffic with the hills I have going to work. Fine...
I figured it out. You don’t need to remove the steering rack. You just need to knock out the tie rod from the knuckle and you can get enough to rotate it out of the way.
I spent a lot of time trying to remove that rack and then the oil cooler and mount. Ended up saying the heck with it and put...
hey guys,
I’m in the process of replacing my drivers side a arm. I watched the video on how to do this on a regular mustang, but I’ve ran into a major issue. I can’t get the last steering rack bolt out on the drivers side. Removing or rotating the rack is required to remove the a arm bolt...
Yep, that’s who I always go through. Stock left side is $192. Not bad. Just wondering if aftermarket would be a better way to go. I have a late production 2010 so mine already has the 19mm joints.
Edit: the $192 is the incorrect part and is for the 18mm 07-early 2010. $92 is the 19mm part for...
Took my car in today to a reputable speed shop that does road course cars to have a high speed wheel balance and alignment done. Car had been having a nasty vibration in the front left after getting new tires a couple months ago. Got a call from them and they said the bolt in my A arm was loose...
I’ll let others chime in on price as I’m not up to speed on the current market. Doesn’t seem to be that bad of a price to me. Only thing that stands out to me is how dirty the engine bay looks. Seems odd to be that dirty with that few of miles. Maybe the guy lived off a dirt road or something...
Good to know. I've got the rxt and it chatters on take off,chatters at 1500rpms when cruising in low gear, stiffer than stock by a lot and acts like an on/off switch. If/when I kill this, I'll do the centerforce next time.
If you're on the stock tires still then they will need to be replaced. You shouldn't run tires more than 5 years. I have a 2010 and just had to replace my tires with only 10k miles on them. They were starting to dry rot.
I'd keep what you've got all day long. If you can swing it keep your car and buy the other for a daily. Of course the dealer wants the deal. Have you seen what gt500s are going for now?
Pulley and a tune will put a smile on your face over stock. Cost about $800. You'll need the tuner anyways for anything else you're doing and the pulley can transfer to a tvs later if you go that route. It's all relative and cumulative. The heat exchanger would be the next thing I'd get...
