    Considering 03-04 Cobra Calipers? Read This.

    I would not swap out the master cylinder until you actually do the rear disc brakes. Doing a MC is easy, so do the rears first and then the MC. Since the 93 cobra is designed for 4 wheel disc, it would be a bad idea in my opinion to match that up with drums. I myself would rather run the...

    Considering 03-04 Cobra Calipers? Read This.

    If they do not fit, I have brand new hoses never used for the fine pitch like you need. The only way you’ll know is to crack it open and see if it fits. Also, I am upgrading my rear brakes to the Cobra’s because I need them when I do my IRS. They are SN95 rear disc’s. I basically have a...

    Considering 03-04 Cobra Calipers? Read This.

    Yes, all 94-04 Cobra Calipers are the same. The design is the same. They might have changed manufacturers because I know PBR makes them now. The rotors are also the same, and I know for a fact that they changed manufacturers, as Brembo makes them now. 94-01 Cobra Calipers use fine thread...

    Considering 03-04 Cobra Calipers? Read This.

    This is for anyone that is considering 10 Anniversary Cobra Calipers for their Mustang. I bought a pair of them and rotor’s from Tousley Ford in December. It was a nice day out yesterday so I decided I would put them on. I took out the stock pads and replaced them with EBC Green Stuff pads. I...

    Anyone ever installed air horns on their fox?

    My horn died on my Mustang and I am going to use some air horns instead of going back to stock. I want something that will really wake people up. Can someone tell me how hard it is to install air horns? I want to bypass my old horn so that only the air horns work when I hit the middle of my...

    Taking off quads

Heat that bitch up, no not the shock, that’ll blow up, the nuts, and then use some penetrating oil and get a pipe to use as a cheater bar and boom, you’ll be done. Or go get an impact and be done in...

    Taking off quads

    Well, yes and no. They prevent nasty wheelhop. If you take them off, you will get wheelhop like a mofo. If you get a set of nice control arms, then you can take them off. Otherwise if you get a panhardbar/torque arm combo, you can take them off, or if you are a pimp like me and put and IRS...

    Taking off quads

    There is not really a special way to do it. It's as straightforward as you can get.

    My car is leaking gas. Please help.

    My 86 is leaking gas pretty bad. I found the leak, and it’s right under the air box. There are two metal fuel lines with rubber hoses. One of the hoses broke off and I tried jamming the rubber hose over the metal nipple part, but the pressure is so great, gas still sprays out everywhere. I have...

    Question About Cobra Brake Upgrades.

    Nope did not come with brakes. The guy I bought it from took it out to drop in a solid axle….so he would not destroy his IRS with 1200hp. He kept the brakes obviously for his solid. It did come with springs, Bilsteins, billetflow diff protector and poly diff bushings. I am in the process of...

    Used A9L - Good idea?

    The 86-88 uses a speed density computer and the 89-93 uses A9L for a stick and the auto gets the A9P. You can use either for a stick, but only the A9P for an automatic.

    Question About Cobra Brake Upgrades.

    I have a question about brakes. I have an 86 with SN95 front brakes and rear as well. I just bought a 13” Cobra upgrade, and want to know about the rears. I am doing a 2003 IRS swap shortly, and I am still not sure if I need swap the rears for the Cobra’s. I know that the Cobra uses a bigger...

    Who here is using 96+ spindles??

    You do not need to take the A Arm off to press out the ball joints. Go rent a Ball joint removal tool and it hooks to an impact gun and they come out easy.

    Putting a SBC in a Fox...

    Impossibility is only underfunded. I have seen foxes with 460’s in them, so I would think a 454 or even a 502 would fit. If you have enough money, I’ll bet you could fit a Ferrari F40 motor in a fox.

    Used A9L - Good idea?

    It will say A9L on the CPU. In your case, an A9L or A9P will work just fine.

    Who here is using 96+ spindles??

    I run 96 spindles and 96 cobra ball joints. I do not need the washers, and after I replaced them, the steering was so much crisper. I have no problems. Everything fits great.
