I noticed the same thing. I have used a towel on the ground.

Why not machine the whole part out of ABS, nylon or UHMW?

Interference fit - no need for glue. Very nice option for GT owners.

Do not use hose that is not rated for power steering fluid. NAPA carries bulk PS hose. I have purchased bulk PS hose at O'Reilly's as well. If a hose is not rated for the product, it generally will swell up and seep as the product deteriorates the rubber.

Is this from your problem back in August? How did you find the TRE pump and part number? Thanks very much for sharing. Great to know.

It's the screwed up WA state. It is still available in the free states. Public use of illegal drugs becomes legal in the state on July 1, but the sale of R-134 is illegal.

Dave - Thanks for making these available. Ordered. Can you include some instructions? At least, the pics and notes on your post #7 above? Thanks again, Ed

Aircraft engines have aluminum heads and have used spark plug anti-seize for eons. I always use nickle anti-seize on aluminum heads. I have seen plugs seize on aluminum heads - not fun. Make sure you do not get any past the threads. See instructions on link...

Yes, this is the first I have seen of this repair. It would be nice to know where to order one when needed.

Lacquer is a common type of paint used for touch-up. The results will vary based on the application and technique. You now know what I know from the posts above. The absolute perfect way to repair any imperfection is to have a good painter refinish the panel with color matched two part paint...

It does take time to perfect. When you do, you will be very happy with the results. Paints dry/cure over long periods. You can apply the lacquer twice each day (12 hrs) until over filled. Then wait one day and sand and polish. It will look perfect when done, cannot see it. Then over time...

Could you pop it back out OK, or did it require body repair and paint?

Yes the Ford double tip paint bottle.

The lacquer does not need it. Also, you cannot make it flush to the good paint. You can sand down the lacquer color flush then polish, you will not see it. You can try to use the clear. Assuming your good paint is the original epoxy type two part paint, you can use lacquer thinner and remove...

Get Ford lacquer touch up paint. Get paint dabber at link below. Sand chipped area with the sanding tip on the touch up paint. If the chip is too small to sand, don't. Clean with wax and grease remover. Dab/let dry. Use the dabber below to carefully apply paint to only the damage area. Let...

Most people keep all the paperwork for their GT's. Ask to see all the paperwork from day one.

I installed the Lowes sourced Hillman rubber donut grommet three years ago as you noted. I just checked. The rubber is in super shape, nice and flexible - just like new.

I would suggest the AccuFab kit. You can use your aircraft bolt wire tie skills with the accufab bolts. The accufab bolts all are drilled for wire. Here is what I did with pictures of the bolts. https://www.fordgtforum.com/forums/threads/ford-upgrade-kit-halfshaft-bolts-found-loose.36606/
