    Steering Rack Limiters

    Yeah 5.0 resto has them cheap. Our local Ford dealer shut down so I guess ordering is the way to go. Do the racks have them on there from the factory and they just wear out or what. I am trying to figure where the extra travel in my steering came from. The rack is good and tight no slop and no...

    Steering Rack Limiters

    Can these be bought at the parts store? My rack is the original and for some reason if I turn to full lock the tire rubs the A-arm. I have stock 225 60r 15s on factory turbines.

    Oil Pressure Gauge Needle Sways Back n Forth

    I think any performance engine that see's hard driving should have a mechanical full sweep oil PSI gauge. It is the only way to really know whats going on with your engine.

    5 speed to AOD swap....

    Yeah in my '87 you don't have to step on the brake to move the AOD shifter either. I think that started on later models.

I have my '87 GT back now and even though I enjoy driving it I don't want to put a bunch of miles and wear and tear on it...

    Tinted Windows, . . .Yay or Ghey?

    I'm old and stuff. I pulled the tint off my car when I got it LOL. I couldn't see crap at night. Some cars do look good with it and it does definently protect the interior. I just don't care for it on my vehicles.

    5.0 vented or non-vented

    I am no expert wait for more opinions. My tank is still vented, but the line is just open under tha car instead of being hooked to the charcoal canister. I would THINK the vented cap would serve the same purpose, but I am not sure.

    ac delete help (power steering braket doesn line up)

    True , didn't think about that. You would have to get the whole thing at the scrapyard. I wouldn't think even that should be to expensive though.

    ac delete help (power steering braket doesn line up)

    Hmmm well I would love to hear some more replies from people here who know more than me about where that bracket that you have might have originated. I would think someone here on the forum probably has one of the brackets you need. I would wait a few hours for everyone to get home from work...
