    doorjam rot

    To get rid of that rust your buddy will have to sand/grind it down. Depending on how deep the rot is, he may grind right through the door. 9 times outta 10, it'll be easier to just replace the door with another door. The bummer is painting the door to match the body. If the colour of...

    rack and pinion question?

    I know there's different "turn" ratios on these things. Mines a 1990 LX by the way. I selected the lower turning ratio of 2 turns of the steering wheel as opposed to 3 on the other rack. Turns out the selection I made is similar if not bang on with what I had before. You're mentioning you...

    rack and pinion question?

    Actually, in my opinion, the Ford stuff was the cheaper way to go. I mean, just the flaming river manual rack equalled the total cost of all my parts and the installation. I was inches away of ordering the flaming river manual rack. What stopped me short was I didn't want the difficulties...

    rack and pinion question?

    I just recently replaced my power rack and pinion. Mine developed a slow leak around the driverside rubber boot area. I'd have to top up all the time or risk burning out the pump. A Mustang pro did this for me. Turns out when I looked at the old part it was leaking just about everywhere...

    Strut Tower Brace

    A strut tower brace should be installed to compliment an already present set of subframes. A strut tower brace on a car without subframes won't provide much added difference and could in the long run cause the bolt mounting holes in the sheet metal to elongate. For a daily driver...

    KN Airfilters

    There are other's but they are not as good or well known as K&N. Most of the other companies manufacture the conical ones for Japanese cars. I haven't heard of these same companies offering the panels for a stock foxbody Mustang box.

    How to...remove dimmer switch.

    Forget the short screw driver for the two screws on the console facing the windshield. You're better off getting the torx bit that fits into a ratchet and get them out using the ratchet that way. A whole lot easier. Changing your dimmer will be a pain in the a$$. You may consider if you...

    KN Airfilters

    From a cost point, the K&N are great. You spend $45 once and buy a recharge kit for $10 which will last you 80,000 miles before you need to buy another kit, unless you live in a dusty area and clean your filter more often.

    Which ford oval emblem for hatch?

    go to www.50resto.com and check their list of Ford Oval emblems. They have a listing for each year foxbody and the oval that will fit. Order one from them. I think it's only $10 and it's got adhessive on the back for simple application.

    What are signs of worn aTranny mounts?

    Some movement is ok. If it's really bad, you may have bigger issues. Like your engine mounts are shot or your driveshaft is either unbalanced or going bad. Vibrations can be the cause of bad motor mounts, hence all the vibrations getting put on the tranny mounts. A warped driveshaft which...

    Just got my MGW shifter, How do i remove the console to install??

    Removing the entire center console isn't such a bad idea if you want it done right. To remove the center console, you'll have to start from the back seat of the car where your center console armrest or armrest delete plate is and slowly undue all the bolts holding it down from the back right...

    installing pro 5.0 shifter question

    I'm in agree-ance with the guys here who've put loctite on their shift bolts. Forget about vibrations loosening the bolts, what about the temperature changes coming from the tranny? Use the blue loctite as the previous posters said. If you really needed to undo the bolts for whatever reason...

    Oil Filter Info Pages (Which are Good & BAD!)

    I go to any Ford dealership and use the Motorcraft FLA1. No problems with them and my oil stays pretty clean between changes. Interesting point about the yellow Penzoil filters being FRAMS in disguise. I was at CT 4 months ago looking for a filter for my dad's 1997 3.0 Acura and I was...
