What a day..
First thing in order was to attempt to move the drivers side axleback forward to eleminate that riding condition between the hangar rod and frame. I was able to move it maybe 1/4" or so. All was quiet until my ride home this afternoon, I think it shifted back. ![Mad](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/mad.gif)
I'll whack the tip off that hangar another day and be done with it.
#2, hookup the ipod cable and reconnect the sub cables to the back of the Alpine.
Had to pull the radio for access, but the ipod cable install was a snap. All controls can be made on the touch screen.![Thumb](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/thumb.gif)
Also, when the phone rings, the music mutes and the ringer can be heard thru the speakers.
I have the cable routed into the center console.
Reconnected the sub RCA's, but almost sounds the same (lacking a little bass from the door speakers). Oh well.

OK I was just curious. I've got it on the JVC it works good, but the phonebook is messed up. I was thinking of trasnferring the JVC deck to my F150 and getting a new head unit for the Stang.

very cool Bill
I need to get a nav/iPod controlling unit in mine one day. When I had the chance to snag an alpine I should have. I still have to take care of the squeek in mine. It's driving me crazy but I just don't have the time to climb under the car..... maybe if I did I could get some of that Adams undercarridge spray and clean my chassis....... That would be using my head.
Not too keen on spending close to or over 1K+ to get a good unit. That kind of scratch is for bottom end aluminum.

Nice job on the undercarriage.
I'll give mine a wipedown when I take off my Stinger.. maybe tomorrow.

My tips slightly stick out further than before, I like it this way now. The "racing' can now be seen past the bumper, where as before, it was almost flush.
Only solution I see is to completely remove the Stinger off the car and hack off maybe 1/2" off the rod to be on the safe side.
I've seemed to have lost my Alpine hookup (or at least he's not returning my e-mails

But I agree, any money to fund a fortified bottom end is and will be well worth it.

Bill I'm a big time Alpine fan. Have had many a deck. I just went cheap this time. Still got the 2 Alpine PDX amps in the trunk though.
Maybe I should get an Alpine to make it an all Polk MOMO/Alpine car?

I don't know if I have the same issue I haven't been able to look to be honest. I'm hoping at least it's close, it gives me a place to start.
Nav units.... Really I don't know which I prefer up to the Mustang the first thing to go into my car was a Kenwood unit. Between all the different units I can't really decide I need to use one first or different ones to find the one I like. But I'm going to be hard headed.... TV, New Computer and a bottom end all have priority.

I was thinking of getting a hands free unit like I have in the Highlander it works great. Heck with a stick its mandatory
Not sure if I want to spend what I did in the Highlander or just get a visor unit
. As John McCain say's "Times are tough" But them I think of what Obama said and..."Yes we can".
