Just met with local ford dealer's SVTmechanic for an oil change and a few other items.

Told him about using a 4 post lift and he showed me in the GT repair manual that it is accepted by Ford to us a two post lift. I have a photo copy of the drawing but I cannot post it as it will no scan. However, anyone interested please let me know and I will fax the drawing.

Trying to get dealer to sell me a 2008 Mustang 500 Shelby convertible, but it seems he is hording the three 2007 models he has in stock. They are not for sale. Also, he has 6 brand new GT's which he willl not sell. They are all sitting on the Showroom floor.

Strange, to say the least. Anyone know where I can order a mustang shelby 500? I want to use it as my daily driver. Right now I am using a 2004 vette conv. and can get a discount of $5,500 of a 2007. Of course I will never sell my GT!

Proper lifting points

leon,

It really doesn't matter whether a two or four post lift lift is used. The important thing is to understand the proper lifting points which are incorrect in the Ford Workshop Manual. I a not trying to toot my own horn, however I have seen and heard about too many GT's being lifted incorrectly, resulting in expensive body damage. Please read the following links on this topic, since I have designed a well engineered jack lift adapter specifically for the Ford GT:

Do it Leon. This is the best investment you can make on this car. And, they're portable!
