    Timing chain cover not co-operating

    OK, so I've had a run of bad luck with the stang. This started off as a water pump replacement and the timing/water pump stud bolt broke off inside the timing cover. Bolt extractors did not work so I had to pull the timing cover out. Long story short I got the bolt out and bought: New...

    cobra IRS in fox swap

    Thanks for those part #'s Sicarius428. As for the wheels, I'm using the same 2000 GT wheels you've got for a while, but I'd like to go with 18" x 8.5" Foose wheels. I'm not sure if the +38mm offset and 7" backspacing is enough to get them in there or not??? The backspacing ranges from...

    cobra IRS in fox swap

    Sicarius428, thanks for all the info man. It's been a great help and it's helping me visualize it more. Although, most of this stuff is like greek to me at this point. I guess once I get in there and start to gut the car it will make way more sense. Luckily I got my IRS almost complete...

    cobra IRS in fox swap

    Sicarius428, your swap looks great man! I'm about to embark on the IRS swap myself. Me and a buddy are going to try and tackle it. I just finished up the front Cobra brakes a few weeks ago. Gotta get those ^^ Ponies off. So I found me a '03 IRS for $850 with 22K on it...

    5 lug swap/IRS swap project question

    Yeah, I think I'm just gonna throw the 99+ spindle on there and see what happens. It the don't work I'll try caster/camber plates and if they still don't work I'll go for SN95's. Let me know how it goes for you bgjohnson.

    5 lug swap/IRS swap project question

    I'm aware that the 96+ spindles push the track width out (I was trying to keep the track width the same in the front and rear, '03 cobra specs) that's why I am using wheels with sufficient backspacing to offset the wheels and bring them back in the wheel well. The wheels won't stick out if you...

    5 lug swap/IRS swap project question

    So I'm in the middle of accumlating all the parts needed for a 5 lug swap and can't decide what front spindles will work best with the setup I want to run. I have a '03 Cobra IRS setup for the rear so I decided to go with 99-04 spindles and '03 Cobra brakes/rotors. I realize I'll have to buy new...

    Fox to SN95/96+ convertible seatbelt conversion?

    Does anyone know if I'd be able to mount and use (safely!) SN95 convertible seatbelts in my 1991 Convertible. I'm going all black in the interior and black convertible belts are too expensive even used, plus I like the newer belts more (aesthetically and price wise). Thanks, Joe

    Correct way to measure wheel offset & backspacing

    First off, am I correct in that + (positive) offset measures the distance from center to the outside (street side) of the wheel? And - (negative) offset pushes the hub in towards the brakes, deep dish style? Not real clear on backspacing. I'm assuming the amount of space from the hub...

    1994-1995 Cobra brake booster/5 lug disc swap

    Thought you guys could help me with this to since its in the same vein. I'm doing a 5 lug all disc swap (as I said earlier) on my 1991 fox convertible. I'm using 99-04 spindles/rotors/PBR calipers up front and was wanting to run an IRS off a 03/04 cobra, but haven't had much luck finding a...

    Dimensions of SN95 axles vs. IRS setup?

    Not sure if this should go in SVT or SN95 I'm doing a 5 lug all disc swap on my 1991 fox. I'm using 99-04 spindles/rotors/PBR calipers up front and was wanting to run an IRS off a 03/04 cobra, but haven't had much luck finding a complete one in my area so far. I recently ran across a...

    1994-1995 Cobra brake booster/5 lug disc swap

    I'm looking at going with Foose Nitrous wheels. They're a pretty cool variation on the bullet/cragar style wheels I think. I like to run the biggest wheel I could in the back but they only offer 8.5" and 10" rears. I'm sure the 10" is too large to stuff back there. And that backspacing...

    1994-1995 Cobra brake booster/5 lug disc swap

    Where exactly would you find '93 Cobra parts? They seem really hard to come by considering it's only one year. I'm just kinda getting tired of waiting for parts to become available or hunting for the perfect set up. I'm thinking of abadoning the IRS set up since I havent seen one for sale...

    1994-1995 Cobra brake booster/5 lug disc swap

    Thanks for the quick replies guys. Is there any reason I should "jump" on this sale as a "really good deal" or could I just buy any 94-04 brake booster with any master cylinder? The only master cylinder I could find on ebay and other sources at the moment came down to a Autozone $114 piece...

    1994-1995 Cobra brake booster/5 lug disc swap

    I'm looking at buying a cobra brake booster for a 5 lug disc swap into my '91 vert. The brake booster does NOT come complete with master cylinder or lines. Anyone out there have any experience with figment of the new brake booster? Can I use any master cylinder or even possibly the '91...

    '91 with no A/C anymore

    Yeah, I'm willing to give it a shot or at least troubleshoot so I know what's wrong with it if I HAVE TO take it to a shop because I don't have the tools to fix that exact part. Damn shops and their crap junk parts! Do you have that write up still or know where to find it?

    '91 with no A/C anymore

    So basically you're saying that I'm at the mercy of the same people that sold me parts that stopped working in a few weeks?
