    I did a lot to my car today

    Today, I did the brakes. Hating Ford brakes - I have owned several Fords and they always skimp on the brakes - I tried a budget upgrade on my stock DTR. Here's what I did:

    StopTech front rotors, slotted (appear to be well made but they are from China)
    StopTech 09 pads all around
    Painted the stock calipers all around
    SS braided lines, 4 corners, from the forum contributor TCE

    It will be a while before I know how all this turned out. Painting the calipers is nice but the castings are so rough that it won't win any prizes. It does look much better than stock.

    Was going to go with Hawk pads but saved sizeable bucks on the StopTechs. Time will tell whether I was penny wise and pound foolish.

    Break-in is the issue. Either you have to find a deserted road and perform a bunch of controlled stops (hard to do in Houston) or drive like Grandpa for 500 miles. Either way, I'll have to let everybody know how it comes out.

    I guess he took that little rust bubble on the roof serious

    Remember kids- if you want it done right go to the pros

    Glad I got her in before it was worse.

    Compression test, low 200's on the right side and mostly low 200's on the left side with the exception of 5 & 8 which were around 180-190. Changed out what I can only assume were 120k mile spark plugs while doing so. What a difference.

    Oil and filter change, Cleaned TB and MAF, Installed JLT intake.

    This weekend ill try to do the Fuel Filter, and gather parts for a little rear end maintenance (replace axle seals and rear diff fluid).

    Just got the car a month ago. So i need to check everything in the rear end and make a parts list.
