Ark's City Goblin #187 (2008 SS/TC donor)

If we have the same transmission. I think F35?

Yep. Just checking to make sure there wasn't a "better" way, that's all.

Rttoys, to go a little further with this ... is the best way to fill the trans fluid to remove the top hex bolt and use a funnel from the side? Seems kind of janky, but I haven't been able to find anything else.

I don't know if this helps... Took me a minute to find this... but I remembered the Goonsquad guys used a pump. Check out this video at 15:57

 

[Ark :D]

Thanks for reminding me of that. I'll get it done, one way or another.

@Anks329 buyer beware, I discovered earlier that my wing is missing the green lead for brake lights as shown in the pics on the site. As it stands, my wing won't function as a third brake light. I've got an email in to their tech support, hoping for an RMA/replacement control module.

Good to know. Let me know how the RMA process goes. Not a fan of shopping at sites with bad customer service.

Jeremy: Yep. Drain from the bottom. Fill in the top. Make sure you are on level ground when filling.

Here was my solution.

or stick a piece of rubber hose on the end of the squeeze bottle. That is if it has a nice little point filler top.

This is what I use, its really cheap and easy.

Good!!!!
Just need a few red and white stripes shop towels there now.......

 

[Ark :D]

Haha, just a left over from July 4th cookout.

Mini update.

Rear suspension is built (have to check torque values though), taillights mounted but not wired (need to resolve a problem with the third brake light on my wing), and back wheels test-fitted with brake rotors on. I need spacers, but I figured I would.

Next is rear brakes (paint and mount), attach and plumb the turbo IC, and figure out how to wire the tow kit.

I am contemplating putting this on the Goblin, somewhere/somehow, though I'd want it in color:

I like the one with the mustangs lol

 

[Ark :D]

Me too. Not sure how appropriate it is though, since I've owned 6 Mustangs including a '69 R-code Mach 1 resto project (well, technically my dad's), and the theme I have decided upon is Shelby-esque.

I was also thinking the Shelby-esque color scheme, and with that sticker its like putting salt in a wound when you pass a new gt by.

oh heck yes! My son wanted me to get custom plates - V8EATER. His mom drives a Mustang GT.....

Or, "I8 A V8"

 

[Zoom Zoom]

I knew all along that you would have a clean build, Very nice !!
I also like the Pac-Man mustang eater I’ve had 5 myself

I have a vinyl plotter if you want anything custom made.

I am tempted to do a Calvin peeing on a cobalt decal just because of the absurd kids on the cobalt groups.

 

[Ark :D]

What the heck am I doing wrong, here?



There isn't enough space between the adapter and the rotor for the caliper bracket to fit in, let alone bolt down.

I have a vinyl plotter if you want anything custom made.

Will definitely keep that in mind!
