LOL.....

Why do drivers' education classes in Redneck schools use the car only on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays?






Because on Tuesday and Thursday, the Sex Ed class uses it.

Anybody ever change to a different rim and mess with the TMPS? Looks like several options. I can buy new bands and use the old monitors ($60), or I can just hit the warning button every time I start the car (Free), or I can put the monitors into a "Pipe Bomb" or the spare tire to trick the system ($20). Looking at getting the Nitto 295/35 18 for the backs and getting new rims like a GT4 or FR500 in Black all the way around. I'll use the BF Goodrich KD's 265/35/18 I got now for the front.

Also a question for Scott. Which way would you go? I'm changing some of the pulleys on the front of the engine (Steel bolt into a Aluminum block). Anti Seize (for Galvanic reaction of different metals) or Blue Loctite (To make sure they don't come loose)?

Hey Cody if your car didn't sell you can relist it for free untill it does sell. Of course you will have to pay for the orginal listing plus X% when it does sell. Good luck Spring is only 2 1/2 months away.

I would use antiseize for a steel bolt in aluminum and just make sure it is torqued correctly and it should not come loose. Be careful with loctite on the engine block. The constant heating and cooling may ruin the loctite anyway.

That new wheel and tires combo should give you a great new wide azz stance

The pipe bomb lasts about 18 miles and the warning comes on. I don't really notice it anymore. Dive less than that, no issues.

The bands and remount was too much.

If we don't stop using the words 'pipe bomb' we're all gonna end up on a list somewhere in the DofJ.


If we are not already on one.

For sure your on somebodies list. Anybody else besides Justin and Darrell doing any mods? I am way tired of winter. I'm thinking my next mod might be something I really need. New shocks and struts! I will do Koni's

How the valve cover mod coming??? I have also come to a realization that I must flap my gums at least 10x's as much as Nick does in any given time. Check the join dates. Oh well!

Still planning on doing a cowl hood this year.

No immediate mods planned for this month, though I am doing alot of tinkering.

Still waiting on the covers from Darrel. Not in a rush. Still need to pull mine off too. Too cold out. I think I might trim my shaker shroud when I do that, too. I did send the guy money to buy Darrel's requested color though so he owes me $25

I post a lot more on another (non mustang) forum than I do here.

Hey Gary, if you toss a cowl hood on, are you going to completely remove the stripes, or are you going to go with a new pattern, etc.?

I'm gonna get the Cervinis cowl and put the same 10" stripes on it. I've checked and they will fit. I like the Steeda/Kaenan hood alot, but my stripes won't work, so I'm stuck with the Cevini to keep my stripes as is. Which is fine because I love that hood too.


I can't imagine my car without the stripes or even in a different pattern now. They will be a permanent fixture. If they fade a get messed up, I'll just keep replacing them till someone can figure out a way to make them permanent with paint.
