    The loctite is messy as well but well worth the trouble I have never liked the tape.

I stopped welding and opened my hood” I didn’t want them to watch the funny blue light and get retina burn” the funny part was when I opened my hood the kids freaked. I had on a...

    Pipe thread and fittings questions

    Teflon pipe dope is not a good material to use in this environment because of the temperature and pressure. Because of the lack of a binder it has a tendency to creep over time and fail.:nonono: Nah but it might have been something I designed.:nice:

    Pipe thread and fittings questions

    Good advise that is also how I apply it. And no need to over apply two threads level with the major diameter is all that you will need.

    I hope I don’t get squished

    No secret didn’t have the link at work so I was going to reply / post it from home. But that is it. It is about half the price of the one at Eastwood and safer I hope.

    Pipe thread and fittings questions

    You can use Teflon tape or a pipe adhesive on the fittings. I would recommend Loctite/ permitex 567 it is high temperature high pressure oil resistant thread sealant that will work with all metals it is good for 1500psig instantly and 10000psig after a 24hour cure. 565 is almost as good but you...

    I hope I don’t get squished

    My thought are the other way I would think that if the car can take a pot hole or cornering forces at speed then it should be able to easily support its own weight on 2 tires. I do have a Monte Carlo bar export brace and Maier sub-frame connectors just in case

    I hope I don’t get squished

    I have a different lifting jack than the one in the photo that has the tower bending. The one I have also has additional bracing in other areas on the carriages. And it is lifting a 4X4 bronco that think has to weigh twice what the Mustang weight.

    I hope I don’t get squished

    I ask about this a couple of month back and no one had tried one. So I thought I would give it a go. It should making blasting and painting the underside easer as well as changing the brake lines and exhaust. I also intend to seam weld as much of the seams as I can before paint. I think it would...

    I hope I don’t get squished

    It goes over dead center by a couple of degrees and rests on the bars in the third photo and it has safeties that keep it form rolling back on its wheels. It is heavier made than the Eastwood one but the act of deliberately rolling a car on it side is unnatural to me. Eastwood use to get theirs...

It is differs from a rotisserie in that you do not have to pull the engine or anything all you have to do is drain the gas tank remove the battery and make sure the transmission...

    Do Roller Idler Arms work?

    I just looked at his site and it looks like he has modified / improved the moog part. I would say go for it. His work is top notch and he is a frequent contributor to the board and always willing to help others.

    Do Roller Idler Arms work?

    I was not aware that these where available for the 67 and up cars. I thought the best solution is the arm from MOOG that I help Opentracker locate several years ago.

    tell if i am wrong?

    Yes or you could do a search for Opentracker he is guy here that can do great things with the older stuff. The old setup had the potential to out perform a coil over setup if done correctly
