Do you have any plans for subframe connectors?
I know I know, they are the first suspension mod i should have done, I will probably have them done before the end of the year.

When I had em on my '03 GT, I couldn't tell a difference but a little chassis stiffening never hurts.

I agree with Stephen, when I got mine done it felt much, much better.

Fixed that for you.

Ewww, sounds nasty. Hopefully it's nothing serious...

Pop the belt off and check for any cracks and whatnot then realign it and see what happens.

Wait... took the belt off and the AC compressor pulley spins freely. Checked all the pulleys and they're fine... then went to check the water pump pulley and bam. Found my culprit. Sh*t. It groans and grinds when I turn it. Least it isn't to hard or expensive to fix :P

Alright ima swing by the parts store and get a motor craft one. They will most likely have to order it from another location. But I'll have it today
