And for ME it's listed under Ford Mustang, just like I posted. It's probably posted under both. Get over it.

i have three cars on my account honda accord (wife's car), Mustang (mine) and Monte Carlo (Brother's) so when i post it goes to all three forum rooms. sorry about that. somehow i can find a mechanic or someone who can help fix a problem in other car forums.
while i'm on hear i'm debating on two upgrades to my 05 mustang. what size rims should i get on my mustang? is 22 too big or should i just stick with 18's.
and does anyone know about a car cover that has security system...lol don't want to invest in one and someone steals it. i live in a major city common issue hear.

yeah i had the same problem. my parking break would not release so i figured my spring had popped, but i realized it was just frozen stuck so one day after letting my car heat up for some hours i went inside my console and took a screw driver and poked at the back of the parking break handle and somehow the break released and was working properly again. so that may work instead of getting ripped off auto shop.

Stick with 18's. Anything bigger will compromise ride quality not to mention drain your wallet, and they won't really improve handling over the 18's.

Call me stupid but I could not retract my rear caliper pistons. I was all set to put in new pads. Went to auto parts store and their answer--buy new calipers. What am I doing wrong. Appreciate your help. Skeet

You need a tool to turn the piston while you push it back in. You can try the universal tool at regular auto parts stores but the one NAPA makes works a lot better.
