    Progress Thread Daily Driver.... 89 GT - Front suspension rebuild

    It was dry most of the weekend so I got a bunch done. Saturday, after the rain stopped, I finished installing the tweeters in the dash then I tackled the HVAC blend door cable. What a pain that was. It fought me the whole time. First I flipped the cable up so it was out of site. The thing binded...

    Thanks, I will keep it in mind if the cubby become loose. Currently the cubby fits pretty snug inside the console opening. Its all friction that is holding it in. This radio is pretty small and light as it has no CD player. Not sure if it has a screw hole but I will check when I do the final...

    How Much Did You Drive Your Car Last Year?

    I drove my 89 about 4800 miles and the Saleen we drove about 3500 miles last year:nice: However, I have only owned the 89 since April and it was not road worthy till the beginning of May so not a full year yet. I just rolled over 217K this morning on the 89.

    I didn’t have a lot of time to dink with the car this weekend as it rained most of the time. However I did manage to get the deck and cubby mocked up between a rain storm like I want it. I filed the sides of the cubby till it fit inside the console opening. I think it will work just fine for...

    I'm with you, I hate hacking stuff. I am just going to cut the mating plug off the dead amp and use that. I think it will be a cleaner install. I took the dead amp apart to see if there was anything obvious that went bad and I didn't see anything. Unfortunately I am not an electronics debug...

    What is this piece?

    I have only seen them used but I am not sure if they are available still from Ford:shrug: I had a spare one not too long ago but I don’t know where I put it. I will post back here if I find it.

    I think I figured out my wiring tonight for the premium sound and how to make all 6 speakers work. From the wiring diagram it looks like if I connect the speaker outputs to the amp plug it should get both front speakers to work. Unfortunately I don’t have that plug from the wiring kit. I bought...

    Thanks for the advice. This car was pretty much stock when I got it so it had the factory radio and speakers in it up till I did the heater core. It didn’t work when I got the car(amplifier was bad) but I had a spare amp and used the radio with a cassette adapter till the heater core puked its...

    I changed it Labor day weekend. It probably has ~1500 miles since I changed it. No idea the last time it was done. The fluid that came out of it was brownish. Not terrible though. I have seen worse.

    Been a while since I updated this. I ran into a bit of scope creep. I ended up doing a way more than I originally anticipated for just a heater core replacement. The car basically has a brand new cooling system. Fan clutch, radiator, heater core, belt etc. Been driving it for a couple weeks...

    What's Your Opinion On LED Headlight Bulbs

    No originals to the car. They are weathered and yellowed slightly. I have another set of OEM housings that I started to clean up but ran out of time before the time change. Now I have other things to deal with so those got set aside for now.

    Anyone know of a source to find an original 93 stereo?

    They are some of those IC’s on eBay. They are from china but it looks like they have stock. Might be worth a shot? This is the item number. 392540514870 Look like a single layer board so you may be able to run jumper wires if the traces are burned. Looks like a fun project. I can build and...

    What's Your Opinion On LED Headlight Bulbs

    I’m reviving this thread. I’m looking to get some LED headlight bulbs for my 89 so I can see on my way home from work. The first 7 or so miles of my commute home are country roads with no light. When it’s raining hard it is difficult to see the lines. With that being said, I’m looking for...

    Anyone know of a source to find an original 93 stereo?

    Wow that board is dirty. Is that flux residue? Looks like someone touched up that board and didn’t clean it after.

    In June I bought my wife an 08 from a tow yard. Super cab, XLT, 4x4 with the 5.4 triton and 230K on the clock. Decent body and worn interior. It was too good a deal to pass. Had to put a lot of maintenance in it right up front and still have some to do but so far so good. I like it but I do...
