I just put a mini starter in my 88. I wouldnt have but my exhaust is welded and I had to lift my motor and beat the big bulky one out, it was heat soaked. I was hoping a mini would be better, but it was still a pain in the a**. Car starts alot better though. Check out ebay or craigslist. There...
You guys pay for shipping and handling and I will do it for $5. Just kidding, but if you live by me, bring it over and I will do it for free, come on, save the money and do it yourself. If you tell me what size the tap is, I can tell you what size the drill is.
I just picked up 12 gauge wire just like the diagram shows. Going to put it all together this weekend. I actually traded a lifetime warrenty 88 starter for the high torque at the auto parts store, a $50 difference. So my conversion is going to cost $8, the cost of the wire:nice:
You can tell if it is a wheel bearing if you lift up the car and the tire will wobble a little bit. Or if you are driving, turning side to side will quite it up and make it louder, depending on if you are putting load on that tire or not. Usually a wheel bearing will howell not squeal. The only...
I hate 911s too, but they are working. Porshe went away from everybody else on the design of that car though, its unique, like the original Shelby Cobra. If they would have kept that going, it would still work today, right, its unique and fast as h***. I think they could have done some things...
I read an article on the 2010 and it said they were trying to mimic the front end of the 69 and 70 mustangs. Looking at it from that point of view, I can see that alot more than a Honda or Toyota. I do not care to much for the rear end, and I like the look of the 2005-2009 much better, but if...
Yeah, I hear ya, so your not really in the position to pull the motor. But just FYI, I got a cherry picker for $150 brand new and it works great. Had it for 7 years now, no problems. Look around, you'll find a deal.
If your going to have your drivetrain out, pull the motor. I needed to change gastkets and thought the same way you did. I ended up pulling the motor. It gave me a chance to clean up the engine compartment and the top of the k-member also. I wish I would have replaced the motor mounts and tranny...
I know the older small blocks use a different starter than the newer ones. I'm not talking about the high torque mini starters from 92 up. The housing will look the same but the gear end is different, shorter and longer. They will bolt up but the gears are different lengths. I just saw this...
Wow, that f***ed that super duty up. Do you have any pics of the truck?: ) I have had two superdutys and they do some damage. I rearended an old lady at about 45mph and my bumber was hitting her headrest. I would have drove the truck home if it didnt distroy my trans cooler. I'm still driving...
