    If you have changed bearing retainers, I have questions for you...

    I just did this today. I swapped out my 84 tranny that has a steel retainer and moved it over to an 89 tranny that did not. I had one shim onder each bearing race. One looked to be a hair thicker than the other. I tried the retainer with the thicker shim and everything was fine with a small...

    Diff between T5 and world class T5

    Where is this written? The manual for my 84 says ATF.

    Gear upgrade from 2.73- Do I need a new carrier too?

    Not knowing how many miles are on the rear, you may also want to rebuild the Trak-Lok.

    coil spring isolators

    http://www.fordpartsnetwork.com But, as mentioned, the OEM rubber is costly compared to the poly ones. I have the OEM on my 84 and poly on my vert.

    Cruise Control Help!

    If you find one, I have a factory wiring diagram for an 87 (used for my 88 and 89). It may not help, but it's always worth a look.

    ACC hatch carpet question

    Yours are sewn into place? Not from the factory. You take out the handles and cups. There are also a couple of screws in the carpet near the fold. You must take off the upholstery from around the three edges (sides and top). It is held on by 14 xmas tree fasteners. You should use the tool to...

    Cruise Control Help!

    I don't think that you can buy just the stalk from JC Whitney. Here's the webpage listing all kinds of them. http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Browse/tf-Browse/s-10101/showCustom-0/N-111+600000566+10201/c-10101 Perhaps junkyard hunting looking mostly in MomAndPop's station wagons and...

    exhaust Q 0n 84 gt

    Yep. The only thing you need are the exhaust hangers for the passenger side. You may also want to take a look at the brake line on the passenger side. I had to tie mine a little to keep it from hitting the pipe.

    Cruise Control Help!

    You can route buttons/switches anywhere you want. If I had the wiring diagram for your year, I could figure it out. I think the biggest issue (as you already know) is where to put them. You want them easily reachable while doing highway speeds. I've seen the JC Whitney junk... er, stuff...

    Removing trim without damaging paint?

    As I mentioned, they will use a 3M Stripe Off wheel. You said you rolled it off with your finger/thumb. That is exactly how this works. You run the drill low speed and the tape residue is "rolled off" like the white erasers some folks used in school.

    Front & Rear Glass Molding Removal

    Yes. See pic. The tip slides underneath the reveal clips. You then pull the handle away from the edge to open the clip. The trim is then carefully pulled out of the clip. I accept Paypal donations.

    heat from defroster only

    It does not matter how it is mounted. That has nothing to do with whether you are getting vacuum or not. It may mean that your supply line going into the cabin is not connected. Have you done this as I mention above? Did you test your vacuum with a vacuum guage? Since you do not have a...

    heat from defroster only

    I know this is 5.0 Tech, but what year car do you have? This doesn't make sesne to me. The vacuum is not hooked up? The tree is on the passenger side? On a Fox, the tree is on the driver's side. A small hard line connects to the tree and runs across the top of the firewall to a three-way...

    Removing trim without damaging paint?

    What is used at the professional level is a 3M Stripe Off wheel available at any auto paint store for less than $25. Attach it to a drill and have a good day...

    what dizzzy gear does my 85 have steel or cast iron?

    Yep. The 85 auto with CFI had the 83/84 cam in it. I wouldn't use bronze, either. It won't last. File on the gear collar a little. If it is dark, it is cast. If it is a light grey, it is steel.
