    Brake / Caliper Issues

    You should be able to bleed the brakes yourself, but I'm thinking you need to take that side at least apart and 'see' what happening - but it sounds like a caliper is broke or seal popped

    Dealer Decals

    The best way is to simply try - with a finger nail to grab an edge and peel - depending on the 'age' of the decal, once that is done adhesive remover and then some rubbing compound, there 'may' be a shadow of the decal on your paint - hard to describe, you can see it only in certain deflection...

    1971 351 W - Accessory Brackets - Ugh

    I'm trying to finish up this motor - it's a vintage 1971 Windsor out of an LTD - I've saved everything - but like a fool, when pulling it, I forgot to take a few pictures of how to reassemble the alt / pwr steering and A/C brackets that hold the gear in place - I'm going for a nostalgic period...

    Might Be Time For A Change.

    Before I had converted to Ford - (my father was a Pontiac fan) - I thought I had hit the 'high' water mark in life when I went out and bought my 1st "$" car ....a 1986 Camaro IROC Z - black / blk interior - I had my share of work "junkers" .......this thing was mint (so was my mullet and my...

    Should I Buy It?

    Get your money back and pass on this car - $18k is not like a small amount of $$ - you could get an even lower mileage 09' / 08' V-8 for that kind of money - if low mileage, clean cars are hard to find by you - go out of state - fly in ....buy the car and drive back - get a rust free example -...

    Alternator Needed For 351 W Swap Into 90 -93 Mustang?

    I'm currently building a 1971 351w for swap into a future 90-93 mustang - it's carbureted - I did have a 93 4cyl coupe on a body cart - but then sold it due to moving - and after very careful thought, I wanted to get a decent 5.0 - so no rear end swap and all the other conversion needs are...

    Brakes Parking Brake Issue

    Welcome to StangNet! I'm sure someone will chime in here about a source or a fix - try calling your local Ford dealer - they may have a FoMoCo part number and a schematic - for that T connection bracket - but then they may only sell the complete assembly - you can't be the first to encounter...

    Best Rear End Gears For 4.6 V8

    Welcome to StangNet - Just my 2 cents - and I'm not a dragster / beat on my car type - but I love my 4:10's - if you want the feel - slam you in the back of your seat when pulling off the line - then I'd go with those - but like anything - you'll probably get a 100 different opinions - may...

    07 Gt W/mutha Thumprs - Over Revs W/air On -

    thanks Tomh - it has a canned tune - If idle is around 1200 - it jumps up to around 4500 - high sustained rev's (like it's stuck on 4500) - the only way to 'kill' it - is to come to a complete stop - sometimes - I try to double pump the accelerator - and it may 'kick' down - but for the most...
