    Ford GT 2006 Clutch Replacement Advice Needed

    We've installed quite a few of the Spec clutches as well as the OEM clutches. I'd recommend the OEM clutch for anything 800 RWHP or less. Just a consistently good overall clutch.

    Whew, good thing ol' exposed CF girl was out on a drive when the repo trucks pulled up! Hope you get back on your feet soon...

    Starter problems

    Yeah, almost certainly a connection problem - most likely a ground cable. Ironically, the primary ground cable attaches to the chassis via a nutsert which is far from ideal. The small-ish nutsert to frame contact area can corrode over time. Clean these areas thoroughly and I bet your problem...

    Fuel Filler Problem

    I suspect it is related to the MAF sensor. Inspect the wires and make sure they show no signs of rodent damage. If that is good, remove the MAF and try cleaning it with some MAF Sensor Cleaner which is available at most auto parts stores. Many times when the MAF Sensor fails, you will not get...

    Alternator problems

    OP - we're trying to help here... A "bad" alternator is NOT going to make the Voltmeter in the car show "0". If a bad alternator is installed, the gauge will show right around 12v when the car is running and ~14v if the alternator is working. If the Voltmeter is showing 0 V, this has NOTHING...

    Alternator problems

    Honestly, this is NOT a good way to assess the health of the alternator... especially on a vehicle notorious for faulty gauges. Use a simple voltmeter to measure voltage at the alternator when the car is running. You should get a reading somehere between 13.5 to 14.5V which would indicate that...

    Got Deck Vents Installed

    You might consider replacing the studs with ss button head screws with a small washer. When new, these vents shipped with a set of those screws. I think the washers distribute the load a little better on the underside of the clamshell and will mitigate any possibility of cracking or damaging...

    Half Shaft Bolts

    Accufab has been out of stock for awhile. Both the Accufab and the OEM upgrade kit are good kits that solve the problem. I'd say we've installed an equal number of each and have never had any problem with either one.

    Gas struts for NFGT doors

    Sounds like Galpin. Frank said they were $110 each if you bought them outright (Post 2).

    Sinovac

    Very, very sad news. My sincere condolences to friends and family. This community is lessened without his proactive and witty contributions. Especially sad when such a fine person is taken at a young age. We'll miss him.

    Jacking/Lifting points

    Just remember that the belly pans are aluminum and will bend if you even look at them funny.

    The Bronco Thread

    About 5-6 weeks ago I got a bug up my butt to build another rock crawler. The final year of the Grand Cherokee ZJ (1998), they offered a 5.9L V8 as a last hurrah. I found one with low mileage (104K), grabbed my trailer and drove 5 hours to go get it. For a whopping $5,000, it was a decent buy...

    Will, I pulled the trigger. Braptor starts its journey from NY to CA on Monday... presumably will arrive here on Friday.

    The Bronco Thread

    Anyone else tempted by the aggressive pricing on the 2024 Bronco Raptors? $20-$23K MSRP discounts are readily available. Those with a Braptor - do you think they're a good value at $75K?

    First Gen Cars.

    The sad truth is that most GT's are not driven very much <500-1000 mi per year and, as such, maintenance records may seem sparse. Quite frankly there's not a lot of maintenance that can/should be done in GTs that are predominately not driven. In summary, if you're looking at a <2500 mi car...

    Speedometer Stuck

    For sure, it will not. A bad/low battery prevents proper gauge initialization but will not fix a "sticky" gauge... which is the first symptom of a gauge failing completely.
