Axle shaft completed chewed up you can see

anybody think they might know the cause from the sound i bought it about a month ago, did an oil change but it seems the oil doesn’t read on the stick before and after oil change. Previous owner put long headers in it. Is the engine swap the way to go or is there something i can do?

Hello everyone,
I wanna throw some forced induction on my 76,000mi 02 mustang gt. I’m having a hard time deciding between the On3 turbo kit or a Procharger High Output kit. I have now turned to reddit to help me make my decision. I know the On3 is a budget kit and the total price is around 5.5k for everything. The procharger is around 8.5k for everything. I just want to see if anyone on here has had an experience with how they run and the install because I plan to do all the work.

Thats my first American car and its been lots of fun 🦅, I previously had an old subaru forester that was beat to shit and i am loving the rwd setup, its not fast but its fun

Does anyone know how to move the alternator bracket out of the way of the thermostat housing bolt. I broke my thermostat housing and part of the bolt is stuck inside where I screwed it in. I have someone that can take it out with a tool but I need the alternator bracket to be moved out of the way for it to be clear.

So I'm not sure if this would be the correct place to post this, I bought a 5.4 3v swapped roush stage one a couple months ago. I really only drove it to work 10 miles one way. Had it for about a month and got to work, pushed the clutch in and the car died made no noise, no lights came on just dead. Tried to start it and nothing, tried to bump start it and it skidded the back tires. Took it to a shop, they said the drained the oil and it was full of metal (I got into an argument with them and picked the car up a few days ago, the oil was still in the car) and they said they put a breaker bar on it and it wouldn't turn. Any ideas what it could be?

Hello, I'm installing a control arm (the one shown touching the ground nearly on front) the bolt is very snug and yet the control arm nearly dangles as shown. The other sides control arm is the original and they are stiffer as shown in pic. Is this normal as the bushing on my new control arm needs the weight of my car on it before it feels snug or not?? Thanks for your help.

Hey all, I'm looking for feedback from anyone with experience with coilovers. I've had maximum Motorsports coilovers on my 04 GT for 12 years ish. I originally ran Tokico D spec shocks and just recently changed to strange shocks. I don't recall the exact spring rate but they've always been a little noisy. Less so now with the new shocks. I've had a reputable local shop check then out after the initial alignment and after driving about 300 miles and they say no issues. Just wondering if this is just the nature of the beast. I've got H&R sport springs on the rear with new rear strange shocks, QA1 tubular k member, stock front a arms and maximum motorsports CC plates if any of that makes a difference. Thanks very much

Just some slight rubbing on the rears on the fenders, fronts had zero issue. Thinking I might be able to heat and roll/minorly stretch the rear a little and shouldn’t be an issue. Or I need to install the adjustable rear control arms and raise it a little.

Definitely need to upgrade the LSD. Inside tire fire was hindering my acceleration out of some of the obstacles.

But overall was a resounding success. LSD and the torque arm/track bar is next over the winter.

Oh, and my power steering started whining like crazy after each run. First time that’s happened so a new pump is also on the list. Luckily it didn’t impact the hydro boost.

My fuel level sensor is messed up and I don’t know whether to get a mechanic to do it or do it myself.
Factors to consider, I don’t have much experience working ok cars but I do like working on cars and kinda want to do it myself.
I need to buy all the tools (hydraulic jack, jack stands, brass punch, drill etc) so idk if it’s even gonna be cheaper than a mechanic.

My 2 things are idk how difficult this is going to be, it doesn’t look hard but I’ve said that before about other things and had a hard time, but I’m also wondering what’s going to be the less expensive route

Can’t get enough of those Saleen stripes!

24k miles. The stickers and other cosmetics were put on by the previous owner, trying to determine if the paint damage would be worth removing them.

The original struts were replaced with some lower quality ones, working on getting some bilsteins to put on here. Driver window doesnt roll down and the vert top will go down but not back up on its own. Outside of those problems the car is otherwise perfect. Factory radio harness is intact and the radio was included, not sure if I'll be returning that to stock yet or going with a better aftermarket one.

I'll likely take the boyd coddington rims off and replace them with some sve series 4's I had recently put on a V6. Then just hold onto them.

This is my first experience with a V8 mustang and it may not be fast but this is a fucking dream car. Collectible enough to be proud of, not so priceless that im afraid to drive it.

Between a new Edge Mach 1 , bullitt and 281 saleen which are you picking and why?

I’m doing a timing job on my 2003 mustang gt and I found this grounded circle on my timing cover around the front main seal. The crank position sensor wheel isn’t damaged or grounded down. My research points to this being normal. I’ve seen pictures of other timing covers looking similar but I want a second opinion.

Hello! I heard of people swapping the 3.8 V6 cranks for 4.2 cranks. I’m considering doing it on mine since I’m rebuilding the engine. I’m just curious is it as simple as getting one and dropping it in? Or will I have to do some fabrication? I’m taking the block to the machine shop in a few days and just want to know all that it requires to swap

02 GT. Changing out the intake and saw this. Is this a leak or just build up from driving? Is this leaking from the valve cover?

Today I decided to finally drain and refill my coolant on my 99 cobra along with a new coolant crossover pipe, radiator fan and an aluminum overflow/degasser tank. I bought an eBay tank because I didn’t feel like paying 300 bucks for a name brand one. When I was finishing up I tried to put the oem cap on but the cap was too large for the neck fill so I had no choice but to use the aluminum non venting cap. Is it ok to run the car with that style cap? When I let the car get to operating temp there were no leaks or any hoses popping off due to the pressure. Is there even an oem style cap that’ll fit the eBay tank? Or will I have to buy an OE/name brand aluminum tank?

What could the squeak mean?? Got under the car and took off the dust cover on the transmission, squeak is super loud here and in the engine bay where the firewall is. Any help is appreciated and thanks 🙏

Bought this 2000 mustang v6 for $200. I’m rebuilding the engine and want to do some performance mods but due to the v6’s not having as much aftermarket products I’m having a bit of a hard time. Wondering if anyone has rebuilt these and what they ran in them in terms off forged pistons, cams, valve springs, push rods, etc?

Hey guys, been talking to a few folk on instagram and reading into a bit, I have a very high mileage car and everything is going to be replaced, I Have been seriously considering this Bash bar just for the jacking point alone, a few drift guys say it makes it so so much easier to do maintenance, any one running one or done something similar, jacking up the car kinda sucks to do.

It looks like my tail lights says something on the cover but when I google it it doesn't come back to anything "khc k120305". You can barely read it but it looks like the KHC is a brand. Does anyone know if the ACANII or Raxiom ones have that or what these are? As you can see someone hit me and I need to replace it. Thank you
