    Rack & Pinion Question

    The rack's internal stops are not adjustable and provide positive stops directly at the rack gear. It does not continue to load the tie rods and balljoints such as when hitting the factory strut rod stops. If desired the strut rod to steering arm stops could still be modified to limit/reduce...

    Rack & Pinion Question

    Centerlink travel of the TCP rack is limited by internal stops within the rack. The two centerlink studs ride within slots in the rack tube. The visible tube between the two rubber boots is a dust cover and moves with the centerlink. Regardless of suspension position and even without tie rods...

    Rack & Pinion Question

    We've seen ranges of 6-3/8" to a bit over 7" as confirmed by Ronstang. Variables such as model year, ride height, strut rod type/condition, and installed spindle will all have some bearing on the measurement.

    Rack & Pinion Question

    The "number of turns" statement that many manufacturers use is somewhat of a hollow fact unless there is a travel measurement that goes along with it. Example 1: 2 turns, 3" of travel = 1.5" per turn Example 2: 3 turns, 6" of travel = 2" per turn "2 turns" sounds better initially but the...

    subwoofers

    I personally don't care for rear speakers other than a trunk mounted sub. Your sound stage should be set up in front of the listener not behind. Rear speakers, especially 6x9's add midbass but really clutter up any decent stereo separation created by the front speakers. I would say scratch the...

    decision of AMP for sound system

    Personally I'm not a big fan of rear speakers. They tend to just muddy up the sound stage. The rear speaker holes can just be left open to allow better 'play-through' for the sub. If you're dead set on a 12" sub I would recommend going with 6-1/2" instead of 5-1/4". The 5-1/4's are a bit shy on...

    where to find a cross-member for a 3550 tremec in a 95

    My understanding is that the T5 crossmember can be modified to work. This does involve a bit of grinding and welding.

    Auburn Pro Series LS

    The Auburn unit will eventually wear out since its a clutch based unit. They (Auburn) do offer a limited timeframe rebuild program but the life of the unit will probably outlive their expiration date, rendering the rebuild offer usless. The TrueTrac does not suffer from clutch wear and will...

    Pedal Kits

    The only drawback to running the smaller pedal covers, designed for later/"universal" applications, is the increased distance between the brake and gas pedals. Not a big concern on automatics but may matter more with manual transmission equipped vehicles. Most people don't heel-toe downshift on...

    Rebuilding my 302??

    If you can feel an edge I would ream it. Old rings are worn to fit against the bottom of the ridge. New rings have a sharper top corner and will cause interference is not reamed.

    Tubular tie rod adjusting sleeves

    The RacePartsUSA pieces are sized for 5/8-18 rod ends and will not work with OEM tie rods. Ford used an odd sized 11/16-18 thread pitch. TCP Sleeves

    ANOTHER coil-over kit -- Ron Morris Performance

    Great thread! And thanks to those that research the facts. Just to confirm, the $2200 price does include the strut rod. (data sheet 437K) And you are free to use whichever early Ford spindle and brake combination you wish. In my years with TCP I have never seen an upper shock mount...

    Just filling in a few of the holes in the TCP information. Cost: Manual $1299 (complete), Power $2599 (complete w/pump v-belt or serpentine, billet mounting bracket w/spacers, belt not included) The $2000 is just the rack and installation components. Pump used to be 'optional' but we no...

    Air Ride Technologies Mustang

    I spent quite a bit of time looking at this car at SEMA this year. The Ring brothers take a different angle on customizing Mustangs that is a bit outside the standard 17" Torque Thrust II's and lowered springs that are commonplace today. I'd say the mixed reception is similar to the welcome that...
