    is it just me or does the car always feel slow?

    All's it takes is a ride in my old pickup (4cyl Isuzu) to make my Coupe feel like a rocket :D Zuzu has her place though, she's a GREAT swap meet parts hauler :nice: And my dog loves to ride in it :rlaugh:

    Auto to 5 spd. help please

    Don't forget to re-route the speedo cable. I did mine a month or so ago and it went pretty smoothly, except I misplaced my T5 insulator :( (found it weeks later) I was able to use the AOD crossmember with the auto insulator, no prob's with it so far. I stuck the AOD driveshaft in too with no...

    Starting Off First Restoration

    Well now it depends on what you want out of your car. Do you want a corner carver? Or just to go straight? To go straight all you really need to do is make sure your original stuff is in good working condition. To handle really well, you'll need to go in a little different direction. Like I...

    what can you do in one day to you mustang

    Well, I usually don't HAVE a whole day to work on my car :( I did an AOD to T5 swap in my Fox in a day (13 hours) recently though. Had to do it in a day so I could drive it :rlaugh: Oh and I highly recommend the move, last year with the AOD if someone made an offer on it I would have taken...

    Starting Off First Restoration

    Well, I think you should be able to stop before you make it go (fast) I know it's not as flashy but, make sure your brakes, tires, and suspension are up to the task :nice:

    My T5 swap - Project wrap-up and pics

    Nice job :nice: Gonna do the same thing on my '66 Coupe I would suggest an aftermarket shifter though. My Fox has a Pro5.0 and the shifts are crisp and clean. I looked at the stocker and thought that rubber thing would make shifting a little sloppy

    auto to manual

    I did the swap in my '91 Coupe. Best thing I ever did to the car :D Like prev posters said, pedals/re-route the speedo cable is the hardest part. If you take out the steering column it would be easier. I left the A9P EEC in with no problems and even reused the AOD crossmember with the rubber...

    Are these '95 spindles?

    I picked these up at a swap to go 5 lug on my Fox. I'm guessing some kind of sensor goes in the hole and reads the little slots? :shrug: Where would the P/N be? I have a pic of the cast #

    Finished my disk brake swap

    PBR's are aluminum 2 piston calipers that come equipped on all Mustangs from 99-04. In 01 (or 02) they went to a bigger piston model with the same castings. They make a nice upgrade to the Granada spindles. All you need is a little "L" shaped bracket and a spacer to make them fit. Search user...

    Are those Granada spindles and calipers? If they are, with a little creativity you can put some late model (99-04) PBR aluminum calipers on there :D
