    Shock and Strut Removal and Installation

    I just installed new springs and shocks on my '86 last month. I used this method from the site listed below. It seemed very safe without using a spring compressor. It took me all day, but it was well worth it. http://www.mustangmotorsport.com/springs.html

    Window Motor Replacement

    I have an aftermarket one, but I just removed the bolts holding the motor on, disconnected the wires, support the window as you pull the old motor out.

    My 86 project begins...

    I posted last month about my wrecked 86 GT. It was going to cost way too much to fix so I found an '86 notch that I'm going to bring to life. Here are some pics to show the progress.

    Found '86 Coupe

    After a month of misery since wrecking my '86 GT, I finally found another one. It's an '86 coupe with full 89-90 5.0 driveline including dash and other interior parts. The guy got tired of it. I guess he had a problem with the body guy doing work on it. Anyway, I'm happy. Now I can start to...

    hci installed, need tuning help!

    Mine did the same thing after my h/c/i. I had my distributor out of wack. If you have another mustang handy. Look at their position of the dizzy and try to get it as close as possible. Then set the timing. And of course the maf has to be calibrated for 24lb injectors.

    1988 LX 302 with high speed vibration

    I had the same vibration around 80 and above. I have new aluminum driveshaft, and 3.73 gears. New bearing kit installed along with gears. The tires were balanced the day of my road trip. I can't figure it out either. I guess I never will. I totaled my car last weekend anyway. Hopefully you...

    I got a 1990 Mustang GT with something unbalanced

    I went through this last year. After I changed the tranny mount, driveshaft, flywheel, harmonic balancer. I finally checked the motor mounts and one was loose. Lesson learned. Check for loose nuts and bolts first.

    Wrecked the stang

    This site is awesome!! Thanks BK for your help. I hope I can fix it. I have so much time in this car that it would be hard to let it go. It was hit by an old datsun pickup. My hip was bruised but thats about it. I saw the flash of his headlight right before the impact and moved my body...

    Wrecked the stang

    I was in Bradenton for the NMRA event. I was driving around downtown in which I wasn't familiar with. It was rainy, windy, and dark out. I turned down a one-way street and thought I had enough time to turn into a store parking lot but no...wham and that was the end of my weekend. Dumb...
