What did you do to your Boss 302 or S197 today?

[BigTaco]

How can you have a spare key that is programmed to a car and claim it can be used on another car???

 

[gripdriver]

If its cut, its useless.

I have found new silver boss 302 replacement keys online. But not the red one.

Here's an option for a red key replacement..........https://www.levittownfordparts.com/ford-racing-boss-trackey-replacement-p-3529.html

I'm under the impression that it can be reprogrammed by the stealership. Ideally Id like to find the car it went to though

Ordered the red Boss 302 key as a spare to my only key.

Also purchased a watson 4 point locally with a rear seat delete for a very good price.

Loaded my Pirelli Slicks in my truck so they can be mounted on my new Apex rims early next week!

 

[Tri-bar]

Pulled off the Torque Arm and installed the Multimatic upper control arm.

Took in the BossS to have Joe ( Performance Ford Tech and Viper Tech at Woodhouse) to install my front splitter, adjust the Recaro seat , do a Track Alignment and corner weight, install new Harness belts, flush and fill the brake lines, mount one set of tires, etc. . Was cool to unload at the Dealership ,as starting up the BossS brought out most of the Salespeople and Techs at our store ( keep in mind this is the largest Ford Truck Store in the World ). That was cool for me. as have never seen a reaction like this from any of my cars in the 25 years I have been here! With the Cobra Jet intake, throttle body and GT 500 rear exhaust it will wake up the dead ----- or better yet, make all the Corvettes across the street at a competitive Dealership shake in fear and envy!

Bill:
Congratulations on your promotion and Concierge title.
Thanks for your good car/ tire advice and for the birth of my GT350R on the 7th. (In Dearborn!)
Funny how birth and delivery can be many weeks apart.
Enjoy your new working hours.
BTW My avatar is a real FR500C- 027

 

[Bill Pemberton]

Thanks Quad and will drop my new position on all the unsuspecting TMO folks tomorrow.....when they least suspect ,ha.

GT350R and FR500C------my kind of Garage!

 

[Tri-bar]

Changed rear spring rates, from 200 lbs to 250 lbs

 

[gripdriver]

Painted and cleared my roll bar "apple red".

Its curing in the oven (my garage).

Feels great to get behind a paint gun again.

My stupidity allowed my silver key to walk off. Anyone know where I can purchase a replacement? My Red Key is programmed; any problems with losing the Track Key Program?

 

[VoodooBoss]

I don't think so.

This was posted many moons ago but it's a good idea to buy a regular programmable key. If you have two keys you can program a third. That works well in situations where you lose a key.

 

[TMSBOSS]

If you don’t have two keys. You will need a laptop at a dealership or the equivalent to program the replacement. Makes sense. Who wants a valet to have access to your car where they can make and program a key.

 

[Bill Pemberton]

....as soon as you get a new key, inis almost a guarantee you will find the old one!

 

[M91196]

Did the separate brake and clutch reservoir thing on the track pack.

 

[gripdriver]

Installed my Watson 4 point. Not really hard. What sucked was climbing my 6'7" ass in and out of the car 5 million times.

Should have taken the seats out. Oh well, its in...now i need to weigh the parts i removed, and figure out how much i weight the car actually gained.

Started installing a set of lowering springs, 5300 T set from Ford. Volshlag caster camber plates & 18x11 Apexs wrapped with Falken 615+, 295/40-18's. Have some other bits to throw on the rear when the front is finished. Sure envy the guys with coil-overs. Those front springs are a real wrestling match with the spring compressors. I rarely had to work on strut suspensions, one of the benefits of working on medium and heavy duty trucks. I still have all my fingers!

 

[gripdriver]

Curious how those 295/40/18 RT615K+ do.
