    Going Square, what is needed?

    Long thread, so I'll just post and hope it's not that duplicative.I did it the easier way with just 275/35-19s on each corner. I use 1/8 spacer up front, but not really necessary. I have the Ford Racing full suspension kit, and a steeda adjustable panhard bar. The wheels are from...

    5W-20 or 5W-30

    This has always been a difficult debate with the "It's what the factory says" camp, and the "That's just for MPG" camp. Same arguments in the BMW forums.For track duty, this is, IMO, a critical question though, and using 0W-20 seems potentially problematic. Ford is the only manufacturer...

    Bolt on sub belt mount for sparco base

    I have another sub-belt that bolts in at back, along with a lap belt plate. So, I have the rear bolts (upgraded 10.9 and longer) bolting down the adapter, lap belt plate and now a sub-belt bar (3 brackets total) in the the back. It works, but wanted to consolidate (back to two) maybe with just...

    FS: bolt on jack plates for 2015+ Mustang

    Can I order a set, or just one (would use one as an adapter when jacking only...if they work that way), for my S197 (2008 GT)? I would take any color in stock, but prefer black.

    Weight reduction

    All fine points. This discussion got off the rails, I guess. I decided not to drill out my spot welds after all and will not install the Ford Performance tubular tow bumper. I think that cross piece (which is the main connector for the two longitudinal frame rails), and the welds therein, are...

    Weight reduction

    I like using a thread, however old, if it is accurate to the discussion. Even if old, it gets put to top of recent activity and I hoped it'd yield a useful reply. I'll keep searching...

    Weight reduction

    Need some help. Got the FRPP tubular tow bumper replacement. Cannot get the OE bumper reinforcement piece off of my 2008 GT. I don't see the spot welds between the bumper and the plates...only a few connecting the plates to the car framing; are these the welds that must be drilled out? Is...
