    Welded crossmember?

    I'm trying to remove my transmission and it looks like someone welded in the crossmember. Was this pretty common? If I cut out the welds, afterward during the install, will I be able to align everything pretty easy and weld myself, or should I take it to a shop? I'd appreciate any info.

    Driving still feels unsafe.

    So far i've replaced Rear Supsension Brakes Front Suspension But when I take the car on the highway I still don't have enough control of the steering. The freeplay in the steering wheel is too much and I definately don't feel comfy on those fast and tight turns. Basically the steering...

    New sway bar. What a difference!!

    I bought an 1 1/8 inch sway bar a few months back and just installed it today. As you can see it looks mean compared to my stock 5/8" bar. I read before about how much difference it made while cornering and didn't think it would affect me that much since I dont drive it too hard, but boy was...

    17's on my 67

    Pic of 17's on my 67 This past weekend I got a set of 17x8 Torq thrust II's with 235/45 tires. I'm pretty happy with the setup. 16's might have been a little better but I had 16's on my car and they didn't clear the BAER setup. Anyway, let me know what you guys think. <br>

    Hello everyone, today I finally finished installing my Flex-a-Forms on the 67 stang. It drove it around town for a few minutes and everything seems fine. Do leaf springs have some sort of break in period or am I good to go. Everything else seems fine. I didn't have time to give it a full...

    Floor pans

    So my floor pans are rusted out on the o'le 67 coupe. I went ahead and purchased both sides. I took it to a body shop and they quoted me 200 for each section. So $800 to weld in the new floor pans. What do you guys think? Is that pretty much average? By the way, I'm in California.

    Fuel Pump Question

    I have a 351W with a stock fuel pump. I noticed the fuel pump has a small leak which explains one of the reason i'll end up smelling like fuel when i drive for a long period. I'm going to buy a new one but was wondering if it is a time to upgrade or if a stock pump will do just fine. The...
