    1986 Spindle help

    What exactly does "the spindle blew out" mean? You sure it isn't just the wheel bearings? Regardless, I don't know where you would find an 86 spindle other than the junkyard, but 87-93 GT spindles will fit with the larger 87-93 rotors and calipers. I see sets on ebay all the time for...

    How much is involved in converting 4 lug to 5 lug?

    It depends on whether you are going with rear drums or discs. If you do discs then you will have to swap the master cylinder and brake booster. Swaping out the rear axles is suprisingly easy. Swaping the spindles is also quite easy. But to do the brake booster first you have to remove it. The...

    Cobra Brake66 Install on 86 GT

    Okay so it turns out the plug did actually fit. I tried it again today. Apparantly lots of cold medicine and little sleep makes seemingly simple tasks like screwing a bolt in a hole very difficult.

    Cobra Brake66 Install on 86 GT

    Yeah I thought about getting the end welded. That might be the easiest and cheapest.

    Cobra Brake66 Install on 86 GT

    Unfortunately I didn't buy the kit, I pieced it together. I suppose I could try to find a prop valve from an SN95 and see if it works. I know a few others have done this with their 86's what did ya'll do?

    Cobra Brake66 Install on 86 GT

    I am 2/3rd's finished installing SN95 Cobra Brakes on my 86 GT, but I've run into a problem with the proportioning valve and master cylinder. First, according to ford it is absolutely neccessary that you install the correct plug w/o hole in the end of the proportioning valve. The stock plug...

    SN95 Cobra Brake Line Bolt

    In case anyone is intrested after several days of searching local parts stores and the internet I finally found a vendor who carries the correct banjo bolts. www.breezeautomotive.com. $11.95 for a pair with washers which is great because I was about to buy the maximum motorsports brake...

    SN95 Cobra Brake Line Bolt

    Where do you get a banjo bolt for 97 Cobra front brakes (PBR Calipers). I was installing the cobra brakes on my 86 GT and discovered I was missing one bolt. All of the auto parts stores have the correct size, but only in coarse threads. The PBR calipers require fine threads. I went to the ford...

    Anti Moan Brackets for Cobra Brakes

    I have everything I need for a front and rear SN95 Cobra brake install on my 86 except one thing. I don't have the anti-moan brackets for the rear. Are the SN95 V6/GT anti-moan brackets interchangeable with the Cobra units?

    Electric Fan WHICH ONE???

    I don't know about the DCC but the black magic and proform fans both draw 13.9 amps. In fact the specs for the black magic and proform are exactly the same. The proform is however about $90 cheaper. By the way blue302stang . I love the color combination on your GT. I've always thought it was...

    WHICH COMPANY IS THE BEST IN HANDLING PACKAGE?

    I just had maximum motorsports full length subframe connectors installed. If the rest of their parts are as high quality (which I'm sure they are) that's where I would spend my money.

    Drivers side door will not open.

    I just had this happen. I finally got the door to open by simultaneously pulling up on the door look and working the inside door handle. Eventually it came open. The problem was of course a frozen door lock actuator. Those damn things are irritating.

    Stock '05/06 mustang 0-60mph/(0-100km/h)

    Sorry, it turns out they don't record 0-60 on the time slips.

    Stock '05/06 mustang 0-60mph/(0-100km/h)

    I took my 05' to the drag stip right after I bought it and I thought I had all the info in my profile but the 0-60 time isn't there. You can check out 1/8 and 1/4 mile times if you want (they are in my profile). Maybe you can estimate 0-60 using those numbers? Regardless, I kept my time slips...

    Couple questions about my combo..

    Maybe these. I don't know anyone that has used them, but they have larger valves than the GT-40s plus they are aluminum and only $800. http://www.tristatecylinderhead.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=29&osCsid=72ee2d8cdc44157db22d3859ee424457
