    Update your steering. AS stated, you can't expect 40 year old components to function as new. Inspect, Judge, manipulte the system, you will have a excellent steering, and not butcher a nice classic. Dan @ Chockostang

    Power Brakes for a 66 v8

    Nothing 67 will bolt on, work on a 65, 66. None of the 65 66 Disc Brake cars were Power Disc, with a booster, all/every was a manual disc brake application. Yes, there is not a application to fit a Disc Brake master on the Drum only bracket you have. Dual Bowl, or single. So either you...

    1969 Power steering very loose

    To a dealer?? When you walk in the door, ask for the person doing the evaluation on the Classic. When this person arrives, you need to make a very important analysis. If very young, has many ASE patches attached to his shirt, Computer Electronics Man of the Year, RUN LIKE HELL out the...

    Power Steering acts weird in my 69.

    Cylinder will not have a thing to do with it. Did you realign after installing the parts? The Hydralics really is not a issue, the fluid travel is solely control by you turning the wheel to move the spool in the control, no movement, no fluid travel. I'd say you have a poorly...

    new brake lines dual master cylinder

    This is all good solid advise, well worth absorbing, applying. It kinda boils down to "Hot Rodding". If these is no Factory Part, but a need, then we HoT Rod it. We did in the 60's, 70's and still today. Takes a bit of creativity, a need, and SOME mechanical ability, If...

    power steering???

    Very good question, and I appreciate your direction. No, if a fairly able person, a person that "Wants" to feel the driving of the Mustang, then Yes, install a 4 turn box, get the muscle back in the steering. Folks don't understand the ease of the steering, keeping the extra leverage...

    power steering???

    The 5 turn box will take less muscle/steering effert than the 4 turn box. It's a simple matter of gear ratio at work. The more revolutions, the less effert. How hard would it be to turn if you had to do it in one turn with no gears???? Now you see. Dan @ ChockoStang

    The original K/H style 67 Disc brake rotor will be 11 19/64", Factory Specs. Same for the 68-73 Single Piston Mustang/Fairlane Disc Brake system. The Granada will be 11" rotors. None of the Mustang brakes will interchange with Mustang. The K/H system is thw best option. Dan @...

    Which M/C to use with Granada Conversion on my 70?

    Well we hit a snag here. There is no Spacer between the Master, and Booster on the 70 Mustang??, or the 69 ( Of course 69 vs 70 are different, but still Bendix). If you have a "Spacer" any thing between the master, and booster, then it is a non stock item for 70/. The 67 68 Mustangs...

    Which M/C to use with Granada Conversion on my 70?

    No worry about the push rod at all. You simply need to remove the Drum Master from your booster, install a 70 Mustang Disc brake front/Drum rear master (Raybestos number MC36251), Cruise. All will fit function fine. Hope this helps Dan @ ChockoStang
