94-98 SN95 Mustangs On Assembly Line In Michigan

[@sandraa2971]

This made my cry happy tears. Love this video. I have a 2004 GT which was my late brother’s car which he loved. I have put into shows and it gets first place most of the time. I hope my brother is happy I’m taking care of it. He would have loved this video.

[@frankez99]

Thank you for sharing that story ❤😊

[@sixstanger00]

13:07 As an SN95 owner, I assure you the hood is not made of plastic. It's made of fiberglass. A plastic hood would never pass a crash test.

[@rx7jms]

I can also confirm on behalf of my father. The hood of his car was damaged and it exposed the fiberglass.

[@MoctezumasRevenge1]

That's my dad at 7:45. shortly after this video was taken, they put in robots to finish those spot welds. He retired after a couple of years after they moved production to Flat Rock. Side edit, the "protective" gear didn't stop the sparks from burning through the clothes. I remember my dad coming home in sweat and having .22 cal holes all over his t-shirts. 👨‍🏭👨‍🏭

[@travisprince7770]

Wow, that's awesome that you could find him in this video!

[@MoctezumasRevenge1]

Even tho it's 26 yrs old it still has that same smell as my past mustangs That lovely smell was best getting inside it on a hot summer day.

TristenTJS exactly what I was thinking

[@Vincetagram]

Lmaoooo facts

[@500erider]

Lots of them came with fairly large gaps between the front fenders and doors, on one side or the other, mine included. On mine, ( 1994 GT ) there is a large, uneven gap on the passenger side. I saw the same, on a brand new 1998 Mustang GT, that I test drove, and was thinking about buying, so it's something that didn't improve over time. Some were arrow straight, others were not. The reasons for which, maybe no one knows ??? Maybe some of these were built on Monday mornings, when half the staff were dealing with hangovers ?????

[@madmod]

I have pennies and quarters wedged places that say otherwise.

[@angelgjr1999]

Panel gaps are not as bad as the Tesla “luxury cars” lol. You can see the panel gaps from a few car lengths away on the highway.

So wrong lol. I'm shocked they didn't show the live axle being installed and then cut to a computer sim of an independent rear suspension. ;)

So I’ve heard on and on about balanced driveshafts installation. As in when you change your ujoints you must reinstall your driveshaft exactly as you had taken it out. According to this video, the assembler just slammed a driveshaft in and went on to the next car. I call myth busted on balanced driveshaft install.

[@73challenger5031]

I've heard that, also. I guess, since it's balanced already, it doesn't really matter how it goes in, right? That's like saying, once your wheels are balanced, you need to install them the same way every time!

[@houseofno]

Little known fact about automotive manufacturing - it's also possible to order what's known as a body-in-white. This is a body shell with no powertrain and no VIN number. These are generally not street legal but have a variety of uses - private research projects, but more often, for various vehicle motorsports applications including drag racing, NASCAR, and showroom stock racing for which street legal compliance is not necessary or not desired. Some companies like BMW even subcontract vehicle manufacturing to other companies overseas when manufacturing a vehicle to meet a particular nation's safety or emissions requirements isn't cost effective to oversee directly. The manufacturer provides "knock down kits" to the subcontractor who then assembles the car on their own.

[@geraldscott4302]

My '98 Mustang (V6 5 speed) has a steel hood, not plastic. There is a huge design problem with the undercarriage of the SN95 Mustang. They did not actually use any structural steel on the underbody. The whole bottom of the car is made of the same gauge steel as the body. No heavier frame rails anywhere. This makes the Mustang not only VERY flexible, but there are no lifting points under the car. No matter where you lift the car from, you are going to bend something, the only exceptions being the rear axle and the front lower control arms. Even the K member that supports the engine is made of thin sheet metal. This is basically a carryover from the Fox platform, without a doubt the worst design Ford has ever used. Many different models have used this platform, and they all have the same problems.
