I put the PPE trans pan 5k miles ago. It is stupid that Ford put a plastic pan on it with no drain plug!
And no way to tell the fluid level other than putting the car up in the air and sliding your hand next to a possibly super hot exhaust.
And... (see full post)
YEP!! I have a few sets like yours. Then I swapped the ABS module in my Boss. No more nannies. I have saved the cost of the module in pad savings. (see full post)
Guys. Our old "Truck Axel" fords have a plug in the cover and a plug in the housing, at the front near the input yoke. The one in front, correct me if Im wrong, is the one you use to indicate correct level. Pull both plugs, add fluid through... (see full post)
More than a tire with the 26 offset? No way.All we are doing is moving the wheel out to match the same position as the stock 26 offset, so we can use the 52 offset from the rear wheel ( so we can rotate).I think the leverage would be exactly...
this happened to me in 2022. Crashed hard. Felt like I tripped and face planted while at a full on sprint speed. Cant imagine how folks in these environments survive - whether it be the athlete themselves or the crew.The big part folks don't...
A lot of times these guys push them selves to the brink, and they do it so often that they are comfortable living on that edge. I've seen crew guys go through ibuprofen like candy, consume energy drinks all day, I mean one of the reasons I...
Ok so main issue was a clutch.
Ok. Here's what I would do.
Stage 2 suncoast 10r80 kit. Increase number of clutches and upgrade them too.
I would change the body valve to a -D part number. The -D is the latest ford valvebody.
Also. I would add...
Turns out I am very bad at donuts/drifting(this is my first attempt). I've owned this car 6 years and have never tried it before last weekend. We were camped out on a skid pad at Inde Motorsports Ranch, I had worn my tires down to the cords so...
I didn't play with the settings too much, but when i did try have it on just to see how it functioned it was a bit aggressive. But it was on the street coming to a stop so I don't think it was a good baseline for me to try it on (see full post)
I mounted the switch on mine where the cabin air temp sensor goes. I just haven't played with the settings too much. I haven't had much time to dial it in like I want yet, hoping to do that before the HPDE event I have next month (see full post)

Hmmm, it would make sense. And I actually might have 2 different calipers back there. One of my boots tore up a few years ago and I replaced one side. Now one side has a caliper with a black booth and the other side has an orange booth.
The...
@Akel I responded on your build thread, but those rear brake pad pictures you posted suggest a problem with one of your rear calipers. Which of course would cause all sorts of instability.
