    zero oil pressure, lifters tickin'-whattya think?

    Ok, now the obvious question. How to get to the pump. I did my motor mounts last month, pulled the h-pipe, etc and barely could raise the engine high enough to get the mounts out, much less the pan. Should I: Lift the engine with a jack? Pull the engine.? or Remove the k-member and...

    Need Help, no oil pressure.

    I just had the same thing happen during this last weekend's autocross. Pulled the distributor and the broken oil shaft. It was twisted and then snapped. Pulling the pan this weekend and deciding what's the next step. The difference is that I immediately heard my lifters ticking, there was...

    zero oil pressure, lifters tickin'-whattya think?

    Just before my last race, I started the car and no oil pressure, tickin lifters. Shut it down and pulled the distributor to find my oil pump drive shaft twisted like a licorice stick. (BTW, I used a prestone anti-freeze tester hose to pull the broken shaft.) Ok, so my pump is seized up...

    Strut swap-90 to 95?

    I'd like to take the Koni SA struts and shocks from my 90 GT and put them in my 95 GT. I know the numbers are different but it looks like they would swap. What would the effect be? Anyone ever try this? thanks :nice:

    How stiff?

    Added Koni SA (yellows), MM CC plates and MM swaybar poly kit this weekend. Springs are stock. Wow, the car is stiff, but on the road they don't feel bad at all. My 200 lbs can't budge the fender when the konis are max firm. For those of you with this combo, is this the norm? BTW the MM...

    Swaybar removal

    GOTIT. Thanks for the input. Here's what I did: From the bottom, you can see the plastic retainer that 89MustangGX spoke of. Use a screwdriver and hammer to push the retainer out allowing access to the hardware on top. Use a 5/8" wrench for the nut above and a 1/2" deep socket below...

    Swaybar removal

    I changed the endlinks on my swaybar, then tried to change the bushings. I can't get the bushings off. The nuts on the top side of the bolt just spin and I can't stop 'em. Thanks!

    OK, I know it's been beaten to death *POLL*

    Agreed, for the street, but if you road race or autox, use synthetic.

    strut install

    Thanks! One of my buds suggested getting new bushings for the top of the strut. Would you recommend that as well? Who sells a good one?

    strut install

    I know, I know. I'm supposed to search first, but my last 10 searches revealed nothing. I'm installing Koni SAs next weekend. Need step by step instructions on replacing struts. Does someone have a link? Many thanks.

    glass window on convertible

    I phoned an upholstery shop they said they fix me up for about $15 when my vinyl tore below the window. Haven't done it yet, pretty sure it'll be Ugly but it is cheap and watertight...

    Good thought, thanks

    Performance exhaust opinions needed

    I think I can use that muffler, (or one a bit smaller), to make my own side exhaust. That will make the PHB much easier to install. Surely someone out there has done this before :shrug: (Oops, sorry, called you Surely)

    Performance exhaust opinions needed

    Do you know of someone who makes a high performance muffler that would fit a fox-bodied stang that looks like this? thanks :hail2: The muffler pictured is for a camaro and is 15" shell length, I believe ours is a 13" length.

    hooking up...(suspension guru's come on in)

    I'm no expert, but here's what I've learned from looking around. The quad shocks work in conjunction with the UCAs to help prevent axle wrap-up. Some people have taken them off without any known effects, though I'd say that the UCAs are taking it pretty hard and maybe even the torque boxes...
