    Steering wheel bolt

    When turning my wheel there is alot of slop before the steering actually engages. I thought it may have been the rack.NOT. I took the Grant wheel off and looked at the adpater plate to find that the plate sides that were convex to keep the adapter from spinning have been flattened out, so the...

    The thread of the nicest FOXES!

    Rear bumper was torn in Katrina's winds, but she survived. Now I need to replace the rear bumper and side skirts.

    I need hood pin advise!

    Good guidance there Joe. The locking pins might take a little more finesse than the regular pins as well since they dont have the pointed tops also. Just make sure that when you drill the holes that you drill a pilot hole from the bottom into the top layer of the hood and use that as a...

    I need hood pin advise!

    Remember also that the locking pins that you have are not made to retain the hood, just for security. If your main latch fails they more then likely will not hold the hood down. If you are trying to keep the hood from flying away on you, get real pins.

    Notch Trunk Carpet

    LateModel used to have the carpet for verts, which was virtually the same, only not as deep. If you are hell bent on using original carpet then you had better look like hitting the yards across the country. I tried to find the panels for theinside of the trunk once and gave up. Seems like they...

    17x9 Cobra Rims

    I want to say that I have 275/40's all the way around. I do rub the fender extensions in the front, but no where else. I also used to rub in the back, but rolling the lips a little cured that.

    NO CHARGE ABOVE 4K RPM??

    OK I guess I need to explain that one better (nust've been drunk when I posted). I was told a few years ago (like 8-10) that some Interceptor alts were designed to charge opposite of personal vehicle alts. i.e. they would have full charge at idle and taper off at higer rpm's. Not below normal...

    NO CHARGE ABOVE 4K RPM??

    Or it could be that the alternator is the original Police Unit and is designed to charge like that. I know for a fact that some police car alts were designed to drop charge at high RPM. I don't remember why, but I was told to get my alt configured the same way a few years ago. Check with...

    Fiberglass Spare Tire Box in progress pics

    I started the finishing work Friday and Saturday (rained so had to stop). I screwed a 3/4" piece of MDF as the top for the box. Problem is I have a few gaps where I trimmed too much material. How many layers of glass does everyone think I should use in the gaps. I was thinking of just using...

    Bad...? '96 axles on Fox with 9" wheels...

    It really depends on the offset. I have aftermarket Cobra R's that are 9" wide and had to roll the fender lip with the stock length axles. If the offset of the rims is the same then you are going to run into a problem.

    Seatbelt Upgrade

    They retract better when you open the ddor on Foxes because there is a release pin the open when you open the door. That blck pin with the grommet is for the seat belts.

    A/C System on 4 cyl swap?

    You need the low pressure line to the drier (which is all one piece), the compressor, and the hig side line to the condensor. While your at it, flush the remaining lines, condensor and evaprator and convert to 134A. Not that hard, just takes a few dollars. I would also recommend that you add...

    Fiberglass Spare Tire Box in progress pics

    Nottoofast50 - how many layers of glass did you use. I made a mold of the whole well a couple of months ago and stopped at 5 layers. It was eating way too much money with about 2 gallons of resin and an ungodly amount of cloth. Does anyone know if you can start glassing again on something...

    BRAKE PROBLEM! Need Advice!

    Sounds like you need to bleed them some more. If you changed the master cylinder you most liekly let air in at the very front of the car and it has to travel all through the system. You also need to check all of your lines and make sure that they are all snug. I have heard of lines that arenot...

    Will fox 5.0 Mustang exhuast line up on a 93 5.0 T-bird?

    I had a 93 with a 5.0 and had to get a special Flowmaster catback exhaust setup. When the cats clogged up I dumped them and had a custom pipe made. I coud not find headers to fit int he engine bay due to the size of the strut towers and tight space between them and the engine. If you can get...

    Lets see what you did with your door panels, if dyed, what did you use?

    Definitely looks sweet. Did your speaker grilles come off as well? Just wondering if they come off how you would put them back on.
