Maintance/Flushes... Things to Replace?
Hi guys I am just hitting, 50,000 miles on my 2013 GT. What things should I look replacing?
Brakes Pads
Rotors
Plugs
Transmission fluid
Also I am looking at Rotors here on American Muscle. Can anyone give me some help with experience. Car is a daily but sees very heavy spirited driving, even braking.
http://www.americanmuscle.com/powers...rs-1112gt.html Front and Rear with http://www.americanmuscle.com/hawk-2...rake-pads.html HPS pads front and rear.
compared to this package which is way cheaper

Hey Wish - Good question and right from Ford you should be checking the following:
Oil/Filter
(Pads/Rotors/Line) Definitely time for a change!
Inspect Cooling System along with hoses - (look for anything out of the ordinary) I've seen mice living in engine bays before.
Do a visual on the exhaust and heat shields (If you had a leak you would know though!)
Take a look at your rear axle
Steering linkage ( ball joints, tie rod ends) little lube goes a long way
On the rotors I can't comment on how they'll run on a Coyote but I had them on my '08 Bullitt and despite being down on the power when you stood up on them the car stopped on a dime. Check out a review below on them that was paired with the pads that you're after.
Drop me a line if you have any questions.

Check coolant, PS fluid, brake fluid, rear differential oil, and windshield washer fluid.
Grease steering ball joints and tie rod ends (assuming they have grease zerks).
Lubricate door hinges and hood/trunk latch mechanisms.
Last but not least, grease the muffler bearings and add synthetic blinker fluid.

thanks for letting me know on the GT500 take offs, I was checking them out here but the price is so high for me right now. http://www.americanmuscle.com/frpp-6...-kit-0514.html I will check Ebay for sure! Thanks AMALEX and Dino...O thanks btw Dino you got me with the Muffler Bearings. I was like WTF Muffler Bearings??? Hmm maybe he means the rubber Hangers. I thought to my self yeah I will put some grease or WD40 on them to keep the rubber from possibly squeaking if they move at all. And then I thought to my Self What the **** am I thinking!* I had to be honest thought!

Engine oil, engine oil filter, transmission fluid, brake pads, and tires if you haven't done those already.
