    Lowering springs...

    Ron, If you cut to much off of your coil springs, you can get Polyurethane Coil Spring Insulator Pads in 1/4", 1/2" or 1" to adjust your ride height back up. Tim

    Power windows in a 65

    It's not a hard job, but running the wiring is pretty time consuming. The hardest part is drilling the holes in the doors and door jambs. Tim

    i keep bending clutch rods

    I uploaded a picture of my roller bearing clutch conversion to Photobucket, so I thought I would revive this thread and post the picture. I installed the Scott Drake roller bearing clutch pedal support kit -...

    Brake problems

    OK, so you definately have a leak somewhere. First, I would put it up on jackstands and take off the wheels. Then try to determine where the air is in the brake line, try to isolate your problem to left/rear, right/rear, left/front or right/front. Add some clear tubing to each bleeder...

    It's getting there . . .

    Super nice! I'm loving the shaved cowl and drip rails! The lines look very crisp and straight. How are you bringing fresh air into the cabin with the cowl shaved? Please keep us updated, looks great! Tim

    Brake problems

    When you say air is getting in, is the pedal getting softer over time? Maybe there is air in there that you just haven't bleed out yet? Did you bench bleed the Master Cylinder? What calipers are you running, front and rear? The best way to post pictures is to open a free account at...

    16 inch tires

    For a '65-'66 you want 4.5" backspacing on a 16" X 8" wheel. If you go to a 17" X 8" wheel you can go to 4.75" backspacing. The general consensus here is: 16" X 8" wheel with 4.5" backspace; 225/50/16's on all four corners 17" X 8" wheel with 4.75" backspace; 225/45/17 front and 245/45/17...

    power to ground

    VTStang66, First good to see you around here again. I think you need either a panhard bar (Maier is making a nice one - http://www.maierracing.com/) or the Global West Del-A-Lum leafspring bushings - http://www.globalwest.net/mustang_1964%20-73%20catalog.htm#Rear%20Springs: Both should...

    Rolling Fenders.. questions

    Personally I don't like the flat look of rolled wheel well lips. I used a grinder to grind my wheel well lips about half way. Keeping some of the lip, also helps to maintain some of the rigidity of the panels. The front fenders are easy, they are a single piece of stamped steel. The rear...

    pedal covers

    Here's what I put on mine, they're a basic ricer pedal cover. But I drilled and tapped my pedals when I installed them. They come with a slip over type bracket that is sure to ruin your shoes and slip at an inopportune moment. Tim This guy over on VMF used late model pedal covers -...

    Not road racing:Is Global West overkill?

    If you're looking to build a nice street driver, you don't really need the Global West or TCP stuff. It's nice and does make a noticable difference, but for a pure street driver you can probably spend your money on different areas. Some polyurethane bushings in the stock components, will help...
