Default The Official "What have broke on your car" Thread.

The subject says it all. This can include stuff that broke driving, racing, or whatever. I'll start.....

1 axle bearing
1 throw out bearing
3 syncros
1 front emergency brake cable
1 forged cobra crank.

I think that's it for me...... Post away........ -Mark

Hmmm...of all the past Mustangs I have had:
blown head gaskets
main bearings
main bearings/rod bearings
3 traction loks
2 twisted axles
4 transmissions
That's all the major stuff.

Only one thing that was my fault....

the transmission...

now if you want to include tires.... I've had to have tires fixed at LEAST a half dozen times...

haven't really broke much.. i've been lucky i guess
2 spun bearings on my old 347
1 busted windshield (just call me mr. hoodpin...)
3 "clearanced" solid lifters (from rubbing on certain lobes of the cam)
1 cracked valve seat....

hopefully I've built it up enough to not have to replace too much
