    Low Mileage 98 Cobra

    This is a customers car from WV, just over 15k on the odometer! Customer felt that it was down on power so we checked the plugs, compression test, etc. All is well but he had us do some 4.10's while the car was in, good thing we went in cause it wouldn't have been long before the rear end started screaming!

    I have been seeing that more and more with the later models. Wonder if the bearings are of an inferior alloy now.

    According to the customer, and from what I can tell, the rear has never been apart before. Looks like a bad setup from the factory, excessive carrier bearing preload...

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
