Like you, I am well into my 70's and have been driving MT for about five decades now, so heel-toe downshifts were second nature to me. So, having this auto-rev was a little bothersome at first. I never found out how to disable it, so just lived with it and now I am fine with it. You can get a...
Yep, that's the part! Thought it was funny an A.I. bot pointed me in the right direction. It actually made a mistake by suggesting I look for a Motorcraft WPT-158 part, but when I did search on that P/N, all I got was a WPT-1578, which looked like a possible fit, as it was for a Fox body, but...
I actually did not try any local Ford dealer parts desk. Might have worked out OK, but I was more focused on using the computer and Mustang owner groups as my resource. I actually got some very useful information from the AllFordMustang site, which seems to have an A.I. of some kind to help...
I have recently purchased 1993 LX 5.0 with A/C inoperative. Local shop tells me it needs a "low side A/C switch pigtail" but cannot supply a FoMoCo part number. I have tried looking at various on-line stores using this description but have found nothing. Anyone here happen to know more...
OK, that makes more sense. Still would have thought it would not have stuck to itself if you had sprayed the "adhesive side" down well with the soap mixture. But, like me, live and learn!
I'm still confused TBH. I did a second one as well, as the first ended up with a small bubble in the middle I just could not get rid of! Anyway, the problematic first one just peeled right off, so it is mostly stuck on there by static I guess. No real adhesive at all. I just did the...
Did you spray down the raw display before trying to place the film? If so, you have no problem sliding it around to get it positioned perfectly, and then use the plastic squeegee to start working out the spray from middle to edges. I did mine with no issues at all like that. You just have to...
Eibach tech data said 1.2" front and rear, I think. Whatever it is, you can see how good the stance looks. Not plumping for Eibach here, as there are lots of alternatives, but I couldn't be happier with these. The car looks great and ride is just as good as stock. Even my wife doesn't...
Lowering springs are really a must-do in my book. Love the stance on my 2024 GT now. I went with Eibach and had local shop do the install. About $800 all in, and it totally transformed the look of the car. See photo attached, not the best, but you can see how it looks more "hunkered down"...
I added a screen protector to my 2024 wide screen early on and it is a really great change. Shows ZERO fingerprints and maintains full visibility. Was very easy to install, just follow the directions exactly and take your time. It has been on now almost two years with no problems. Just a...
I purposely avoided the dual-mode exhaust as didn't think it was worth the ask. I added Ford Performance X-pipe on my 5.0 and it sounds great all the time. Maybe a little loud at start-up as it dumps fuel to get the cats fired up, but otherwise very nice. As I row through the gears (mine is...
On my 2024, you can hear the parking brake engage when you pull up on the little lever. I have never had the issue you describe, but hearing the brake engage should ease any worries about what is being displayed. But, no doubt, the display should not be erroneous regardless. Probably some...
Great looking installation for sure! What tune are you looking to do? I have done suspension and exhaust on my 2024 and am considering this same CAI and a tune with it that actually makes a difference would be good package! Thanks.
Well, Tigerchevelle, as the proverbial "really old" guy (78 in my case), I take your thinking as constructive advice, rather than criticism! I wouldn't mind doing this type of stuff, and have done similar in the past, but getting a car up high enough on jack stands to crawl under and do this...
I have Ford Perf X-pipe on my 2024 GT and had shop do the install. It isn't that hard IF you have access to a lift. It is basically cut off the resonator at the right places and fit the X-pipe into the opening, with clamps to hold everything together. But, it would be WAY tough (IMO) without...
Those offsets really work! Especially the rears. Notice any issue versus stock? Dropping to 35 aspect ratio versus 40 stock also has slight impact, unless the larger width offsets? Nice look regardless!
Comparing your build sheet and pricing to my very similar 2024 gives some interesting insight to Ford's pricing strategies:
You had to add $1160 for the B&O sound system, $700 for the anti-theft along with the $2900 401A option to equal exactly what my $2900 401A option included! Plus, your...
I have 2024 GT with std exhaust. I did Ford Performance X-Pipe resonator delete and am quite happy with the result. The X-pipe did open up the sound nicely without being too raucous. I get some pops on over-run, but nothing extreme. The X-pipe plus install was maybe $300, so very reasonable...
I bet the dealer inventory buys are more like 90-95% auto, unless Ford forces a slight push of manuals. Not that many younger buyers interested in manuals anymore, or even know how to use them! Sort of sad, but that is how we are ending up with EVs and no tranny at all! Agree if you want a...
