    That is the exact tool I rented from the AP store. Ball Joints have been ordered and should have them by Monday.

    Exhaust

    My 94 currently has the stock shorty headers, BBK X-Pipe and Flowmaster 2.5 Thunder catback. It's quite at idle which I like but it does roar when on it. I've had 7 exhaust system on my previous 94 and the best one was MAC Long Tubes, MAC Prochamber and MAC catback. I've had this setup alone...

    Here is the ball joint tear. I think the ball joint fell out / down from the A-Arm and I didn't clear the rubber out of the hole. I had the ball joint cover over it so I couldn't see that rubber wasn't above. That's the only way this would have happened. There is no easy way to start the...

    Probably not a good idea but I ran out of options. The one injector tip broke in 3 pieces and I had them (they were large). Well I JB Weld them together and honestly I think the plastic is stronger on this one then the ones without. The ones without seem to be really fragile. I was tempted...

    In non fuel injector related news. I finally got the driver side ball joint out, rented a kit at the local Auto Parts store. Of course installing the new ball joint went all wrong. It went in quite easily and I thought finally!!!!!!! NOPE!!!! The rubber boot tore. I don't know how as...

    I have that exact kit, tried to fix the old injectors (ones that came with the car) with this kit but the blue pintles would not fit at all. In fact the ones I got onto the injector just tore at the top, that's how tight it was. Maybe it'll work better on these injectors, I'll figure that out...

    This is the 2nd time I've ordered injectors and had a problem. The first guy never had the injectors and after bugging and threatening him he refunded my money. This is the second dude, bought on eBay from Salvage Yard and this is how they arrived. A homemade box with some cotton and the...

    I don't either but in a few years I'm selling my house and moving onto 5 acres where I plan to build a shop. I'm going to need all this stuff anyway. They make a 6 ton table top press. I think for now I'm going to replace just the ball joints and leave the bushings in. At some point I'm...

    Since new A-Arms are almost $200 for the pair I'm thinking about buying a Harbor Freight 12 ton press for $129 plus 20% coupon. I'll still spend about $200 (press plus poly bushings) anyway but gain a press in the process. I believe Auto Part stores only rent the ball joint kit that uses a...

    Well now I know why the front end suspension is so sloppy. Maybe one of you can steer me in the direction of how to remove and install new bushings on the stock A-Arms. I've watched YouTube videos using a ball joint tool. Any luck with these? New ones are like $200 for the pair when Poly...

    No not running yet, I'm still waiting on my 24 pound injectors that have been delayed because of the winter ice storm. I think Tuesday is the day. In the meantime I worked on the following: *Cold Air Kit - The car came with the BBK/MAC style which I'm not a fan of. I wanted a short straight...

    Build Thread 1978 Mercury Cyclone. The pig is in the pen.

    True, he's a guitar prodigy in the blues just like Joe Bonamassa. I believe both played with BB King when they were single digit aged kids. I started playing guitar in mid-2015 and it's so friggin hard. I won't link a YouTube cover song here but there are bunch on my YouTube Channel where I...

    Derek Trucks is probably the best slide guitarist in the World. Not a fan of Gibson SG guitars but he does make those thing sing. I recently watched a Rig Rundown on YouTube of his gear and his setup is quite unique. He's got killer tone but man wish I had his fingers.

    Well a dude on the Corral told me to depin and repin the injector connectors. In my haste of being annoyed I was just going to solder 8 new injectors on my wiring harness. He told me what to do and an hour later I had brand new fuel injector connectors. Some of them were so bad, check the...
