    Camber Keeps Readjusting Itself...

    Sounds like to me that you have some worn out or loose suspension parts. If hitting a bump knocks it back into place then you likely have worn ball joints, upper or lower bushings or loose upper control arm bolts at the shock tower. Do you hear any popping or any other noises when you are parked...

    What Would You Do?

    Well I would say to talk to your mechanic and ask him to adjust his price but don't demand it. I can tell you why he tried a new balancer and not a different plate. Balancers are known to go bad. They are two piece and have a rubber section separating the two and the two pieces can slip and...

    What Would You Do?

    So you are saying they run the engine with their own flexplate and balancer then remove those? Doesnt make sence. If they ran it with the same flexplate and balancer you have ( which tbey should have) they should have easily caught this. Your mechanic is working from experience and following...

    1965 Front Suspension

    Best thing is to find the local ford and mustang clubs and someone there can steer you in the right direction or someone in the club would be able to do it. These clubs usually have many members that don't or cant work on cars and rely on others in the club that do the work for them.

    What Would You Do?

    You can't expect the mechanic to eat that cost. If the flywheel has the part number that should match your harmonic balancer then he would naturally look elsewhere. There are a few things that could cause vibration and he probly moved on to other possibilities. Your mechanic did nothing wrong...

    Need Weld & Sealant Assembly Manual For 1967

    Don't think I've ever seen one specifically for that but I do seem to remember seeing instructions in one of my restauration books showing where to seal. I will look when I get a chance this week-end to see if I can find it.

    Wiring Help Needed!

    Black with blue IS a courtesy light color code and yellow IS a fuel level color code so as long as your brake lights are still wired (probly down the drivers side) then I think you've got it.

    66 With Heavy Vibration

    People have different views of what "vibration" is. Is this something you can see the engine doing if you stood with the hood up and the engine was rev'ed up? Or is it something that makes a sound, Vibrating sound, or only something you can feel but not see?

    Loud Squeak From Right Front End

    Upper control arm bushings and spring insulators are the most common but could be any mentioned above. In addition to greasing everything I would saturate all points with wd40 that doesn't have a grease fitting. Don't forget to grease the upper control arm bushing caps though. A lot of people...

    Progress Thread Bench Testing Wiper Motor

    I will still search when I get home but I'm going to guess at this for now. Black would obviously be your ground. The other two will be power - one of which should supply constant power (with ign on?) and be for parking the wiper motor like when you turn the switch off it will continue the motor...
