Just got the JXB single diff bushing support installed last night along with a Steeda 12.9 bolt. The Bushing insert slid right in with the supplied grease. Also installed the Steeda vertical link inserts.

Replaced the spark plugs last night. Not too bad of a job. All went well. Gave it one boost launch and the wheel hop was pretty rough. FenFab Toe Links are on the way now.

The Toe links, Vertical Links, and subframe links will eliminate most of the wheel hop.

The Toe links, Vertical Links, and subframe links will eliminate most of the wheel hop.

I hope so, I’m still rocking the Cobb Stage 1 tune and she is hopping. Steeda Vertical Links are in. I’ll be working on the subframe inserts tonight. Maybe the Steeda front bushings for the diff if I have time.

Any input on getting a Granger Ford Extended warranty with what I’m doing? If I did the Basic for 75k/6yr that would cover me till 2028 for right over $1k.

Got the AWR brace installed along with some fresh 75W85 MC gear oil in the rear. Went out for a few aggressive digs. Tires like to spin. It’s too cold and my tire pressure is too high for any hope of traction, even just planting the pedal down without brake boosting it spins as soon as boost comes in. Trans doesn’t like spinning it seems. I need to check that fluid level soon.
