Nick is a monster. You guys are lucky to have such a skilled mechanic near you.
Love the videos broo! Keep this shit going. Ya Got some love over here down south haha!
I used to live 7min away from that plaza. Pretty cool to see actually :)
Wow Andrew very nice!! When you have the turd painted it will look amazing! Plus nobody will know whats underneath!
great job and great patience nick
Lol Andrew, seeing the springs come out like that reminded me of my springs.
I can't get lowering springs just yet but I wanted to lower my car because I hated the 4x4 look. So we just cut my stock springs a bit. When we took them out, we found that at least 3/4 of a coil was RUSTED to the control arms in front, and it was a clean cut off of the rest of the spring..
+Hellaslow3.8 yeah the paint is what protects it from rusting
where is Ashley at
Yeah.. I so want a tubular K!🔥
That stang is sitting pretty
I got those same UPR coilovers recently. Your underbody looking good!
I love turdzilla it is a beautiful car and I think it's going to turn out to be something very interesting keep up the good work.
Thanks!
It's gonna drive like a brand new car. :-P
Love the videos. I'm a mustang believer now. These cars are factory awesome.
im so glad i live in a dry state (AZ) lol I cant handle rust lol
This may be a dumb question... but what’s holding the motor up once you pull out the stock k member?
First off, love your Cobra, it's the same color as mine. Also, your vid of your car on the dyno was a big reason why I chose the VMP blower. Should be in next week! I would love to be able to chat with you about your setup! Thanks! Love your channel!
You can always send me a message via instagram or our facebook page :)
What kind of Viking coil over set up are you using what spring numbers and what strut set up are you using
Love the channel guys, just parked my 1998 even though it's in perfect running condition. Driving a Honda to say save money to buy parts😂👌🏽 but one thing I always wanted to see was a super clean 2v engine Bay! Next project?
what is holding the engine in place while the subframe is disconnected?
Transmission jack.
Did y'all square the k member or just bolt it on and hope for the best? If the latter, did you have any issues afterward?
I love these Turdzilla videos, I can't wait to build my 2v
Did the kit come with the shocks?
I think you have to order them separate because I ordered the kit for my coyote swap and all they gave me were the springs and adjusters.
Starting to turn into a track car. How about a coyote conversion?
We would love to but right now it is out of the budget
Mustang Lifestyle yeah they are pretty expensive.
Mustang Lifestyle keep Turdzilla 2v and go with the Ford Racing Boss 5.3 stroker longblock with trick flow heads and cam. makes 466hp/414tq. Then setup e85 to break 500hp!
Jeff Smallwood but whats the price though???
I think that piece of spring is part of the original spring
If you take a pic of the broken spring and send it to eibach they will send you new springs no questions asked. They did it for both my brother and I.
Damm !!! 3 years pass and you wen up in weight and power😎
Should've done longtubes while the k was out
I think you just convinced me with he next mod on my 3V. How much of a difference is the NVH? How rough is the ride now?
So when the motor mods coming 👀👀
Music is annoying
Did away with the sway bar so no more stabilizer links eather ?
So does this suspension setup negate the need for a track bar?
Am I missing something or is that jack under the oil pan the only thing holding the motor in place while the original K member is out?
You're not missing anything. Just don't knock it when lowering the k-member and you won't die.
if it rides good I'll have to do a similar setup on my sn95
We are going to make a lot of videos about the adjustability of the suspension and we are going to push it on the auto x track
Nick grate job bro 💯🔥
all you did was trans jack the motor? anything else securing it while the subframe was being replaced?
You cam put a support bar on the top and chain it off
Do you know what the two extra thick washers that come with UPR A Arms are for?
Oh, NM I just realized how long this video was uploaded, my bad! Still, nice!!
what swaybar did you run on this? front n rear? did you run into any clearance issues?
I need new upper control arms tire rods and a pro charge for my charger
What did u do about the rear get coilovers kits for that to or just springs ?
what did you guys hold the engine up with. also that guy is single for sure haha look at that back hair out of control haha
I need help! I crashed my 97 mustang into a palm tree trunk and now I have my front right tire pushed back. it rubs alot on my fender. I've put in new struts but still the same. I also notice that my wheel ,when straight, it's slightly to the right. Would I have to change the k member or would I have to replace my a arm, steering rack, outer tie rod etc?
What spring rate did you go with? I have a full UPR set up (basically identical w/o the viking shocks) and it rides like a stiff boi honda lol.. my rates are 10/250 and 10/150.
Rim and tire set up? Dementions?
Goddamnit. Now I miss my 2V, again. FML...
DropTopCrowdPlow I do too bro!! gonna have to go buy another one.
I know that this video is old but did you get the 0-2 in ride height or the 2-3 inch?
Gotta get a new hood soon
+Bailey Rodgers yes after we get the suspension dialed in we are going to work on getting the hood, spoiler, and some body work done to prep for paint or wrap
@Mustang Lifestyle Did your front wheels require a spacer to clear your springs?
No
What pound spring rate did you end up getting? i have an 02 GT that ive been contemplating doing this but i have no idea what spring rate i should get
What spring rate did you use?
Hey, bud if you don't mind me asking about what did you pay to have this installed?
What type of wing does that mustang have
um i just noticed that the cam cover on the driver side oil fill is the older non pi style. the motor been replaced on thiscar?
It is absolutely possible that the engine could have been replaced before.
Mustang Lifestyle
i would look at the intake manifold see if the first intake runner runs to the pass side or the driver side.
whats the whine on the 2v? its not boosted right? i ask because ive got the same whine on my 2v but its automatic so it only happens when theres about 50% throttle givin above 2500 rpms.. i just figured it was the cams or the plastic intake that sucks so bad. ALso, im not talking about the timing chain whine that is notorious on the 2v in the high rpms..
+Kenneth More the whine in this car is the transmission. Nothing really to be worried about
is there another way i can put longtube headers on without taking out the k-member?
loosen the motor mounts and raise the motor , its a b#@$% but usually can be done in a couple of hours . Had to do it twice on mine lol
review the coil overs please, id like to know the difference. i have a sn95 i want to put coil overs on it
+Harry Burroughs will do
Hurry up Nick and bring that pony to mexico. Still waiting for a reply on that 4r70w swap 🤔
what exhaust set up is on turdzilla? does it shoot flames
+Lil Dez it actually does shoot flames lol. Magnapacks and o/r h
Mustang Lifestyle thanks...
thats awesome in the current state of getting my motor dropped in looking for a mice exhaust and this sounds good! stock manifolds
Lil Dez I have same exhaust but with off road x pipe on my 98 you'll love it I always recommend that setup for 2vs
New suspension looks awesome!!!!!!!
Thanks!
I actually liked the music
so I have a 2010 mustang and recently removed the cats and starught piped it and it is loud Af it has this awful raspiness around 2300 to 3400 rpm range wat can I do to kill that I heard 2 j pipes would work any suggestions
nice work on the turdzilla can't wait to see it when. it's all done
Lone Wolfe put the cats back on
Do a big supercharger
How much did it cost for the install
I’m thinking about changing the K-member on my 2003 GT, how much weight can the oil pan support if I was to do it in my garage? Can it support the whole engine while the stock k-member is out?
Thanks!
No get a support brace that supports it from up top
Bryce Hickman I did. I bought one from jegs.
@@brian.daniel awesome, have you out the k member in yet? Might get one and install over the winter
Bryce Hickman I put the stock k member back on. I removed it to do BBK longtubes. I’m planning on doing a tubular k member sometime next year
Did you had to weld anything?
No
also u said Nicks info was down below but i dont see anything wth "Nick" in the description.
+mustangwill50 Miranda it says message nick and then his Facebook profile
How much did all that run you
Don't Need the Music. Why don't you get the moderator to help you? AK
if you don't mind me asking? how much did this run you. my 2v vert needs an overhaul. lowered on springs now but looking at coilovers
+Joshua Scully the full suspension setup front to rear retails for 3-4K. Check out UPR's website
+Joshua Scully and you can always call them they are super helpful
awesome thanks a bunch
Mustang Lifestyle so u spent 3 to 4k on suspension instead of going to turbo or supercharger thats a shit ton of money
Keepo Hdee gotta make sure it can hold the power or you will spend a shit ton more
Can you use stock arms with that upr k member?
I believe so. But why? Spend the money and get the better a-arms and coilovers
@@MustangLifestyleTV I can get better arms but I dont want coilovers
Hey man, what front seat bar and tie rods did u put back on with the new a arms?
Stock tie rods with UPR Bump steer kit
How much did the tubular k member cost?
+Avinesh Surujbally check uprs website for pricing. It depends which options you choose
The music sucks!!
needs new front tires for sure!
+OGskunkMASTA yup
I love it very good 😇
hey mustang lifestyle can the turdzilla make as much horsepower as the cobra
No the 2V motor is shit. over 400whp and they will probably blow it up.
michael so the 3v can way more power
Ima kobe bryant Fan with an ls swap or a built motor sure otherwise the safe max is around 400whp according to the internet
Keepo Hdee oh that sucks I would want more power
Keepo Hdee what year mustang do u have
How many hp does the cobra have?
+juliane valdez the Cobra makes 600rwhp
Mustang Lifestyle how much horsepower do u think the 2v can make
Ima kobe bryant Fan 400 is the "safe max" according to ppl on the internet
do yall ever travel to the east coast? i got a single 62mm hellion turbo on a 2001 cobra with a bunch of mods i desperately need to tune it to ct weather and 93 octane, already has everything she would need just needs some love dialing in the motor to work well in combination with the turbocharger system air intercooled as well, ton of parts i would love to even road trip your way and get this baby dialed in if you could help?@
I have the delta force interface software i saw a cd and a usb port so im guessing ill have to use my macbook or maybe my ipad if i can find the right apple cable if it even exists..
but yea let me know if you can help me tune this baby in its a legit 01 cobra needs some love feels like fuel cuts if u get on it and spool up the turbo and shes blowing white smoke ever since i put shell v power 93 octane in her.. service light came on i bought a new fuel cap with key and it went off in a couple miles... please help i hope this isnt a blown head gasket!! also needs some gasket for the driveshaft mount that mounts up to the tranny.. plz help stang bros..!!
im in CT but would be willing to roadtrip and meet up with some dope ass mustang heads that can help me get my 4 valve running perdy again..
thanks god bless speed safely,

Hey
Hey!
Turdzilla vs Leroy !!!!
+Phrozen Prophet Turdzilla needs a lot more power to compete with Leroy in a straight line. The Cobra could give Leroy a run lol
@@MustangLifestyleTV yea not a chance lol
Maybe just my OCD, but why not clean, pressure wash and paint the rack and pinion? Also all the other miscellaneous parts while you are under there. If you are going through all this effort already it should be worth it no? Either way props man👍
The motor wasn’t in there much longer after this. It was 4v swapped later
Well once k member is swapped it's much easier to work on you can even do header swaps with the upr k member in place
O'Reilly > Autozone
Fatcs lol
holy shit, a man wearing lipstick.
How is the turdzilla so loud ? Tell me your secret lol
+Mr Who That o/r h pipe and magnapacks
I know the car is call the turd but there no reason for the engine compartment to look like a turd. it needs a deep clean and detail.
auto x ... 😷😷😷😷
Ls swap turdzilla🤓😏
wasting $ on a 2V - very juvenile
