    Disc Brakes . . . Completely Utterly Frustrated

    LOL! I had 4 wheel drums the first 7 years I drove the car. :) I hear ya. Oh, and yeah, 0 air. They're not "mushy" or anything else that would scream air. All the setup is "right". That's probably the most frustrating thing. I got the right guy, got the right equipment, and did all the...

    1965 Upgraded Brakes Upgrade Question?

    Update: Right now, I rank this setup about 87% as good . . . as the original manual non-power drum brakes. We're trying to troubleshoot it, but the brakes have little or no power at all . . . if I don't eat any Mexican food and clinch up my butt tight enough, I can put enough force onto the...

    Disc Brakes . . . Completely Utterly Frustrated

    Proportioning valve is new and adjusted. There's just no power going to the brakes, and the pedal goes to the floor before you get any stopping. I got on Scott Drake's website . . . there's no "contact us" or anything like that. I see no way to report a problem, so I'll have to call Summit...

    Disc Brakes . . . Completely Utterly Frustrated

    I need help. I'm at my wits end and pissed at the world right now. Here's the basics. I have a 1965 Mustang. Years ago I did the Versy/Grenada full disc swap with a '67 booster and m/c. It worked fairly well since 1994. About a year ago, I decided that it was time to rebuild and upgrade the...

    What Do You Carry And Why?

    I guess I always have to ask that with the option of carrying a .45 LC or a highly modified .410 round, for self-defense against humans, why not carry the .45 LC?

    1965 Upgraded Brakes Upgrade Question?

    Yup, that’s off the Scott Drake MC / BB linkage. I’m with you on the binding thing. Here’s where I’m searching for answers, though. My mechanic said that it happened during the break in for the brakes (per the brake documents). He did several “normal” stops with no problems. Then on a hard...

    It's time to replace the upper control arms. I have a PME negative wedge kit and all. What are a few options for GOOD UCA items?

    1965 Upgraded Brakes Upgrade Question?

    Okay, here are the updates. I went with Willwood brakes in the front and Right Stuff Detailing for the rears. I did the Scott Drake MC / BB and a proportioning valve. Between Jeggs, Summit, and Autoparts Warehouse, I got everything delivered eventually. Long story . . . not important...

    Hey, when you get that in, let me know how it works! Are you using it on a disc/disc system?

    1965 Upgraded Brakes Upgrade Question?

    Got a brake question for you guys regarding my brakes . . . that have already been upgraded. Many moons ago, I did the traditional front Grenada / rear 9" Versi swap (like in 1994). I have a '67 booster / MC, too. Now I'm looking for something "mo better". There are a buh-jillion kits out...

    About To Replace The Wiring Harness . . .

    Actually, I have the '65 instrument panel harness . . . but it's not necessarily for a '65. It's for the standard panel with idiot lights. I need the one for the Pony interior. If you have THAT ONE . . . my brother . . . you may save me AND PAINLESS a headache. :)

    About To Replace The Wiring Harness . . .

    Okay, sort of slogging through the wiring, and ran into an interesting little snag. The kit came with two bags for the instrument panel, one marked 1966 and one marked 1965. Okay, no read flags, right? So, I put the 1966 one away (somewhere) and move on with the wiring. That was a few months...

    About To Replace The Wiring Harness . . .

    Okay, I've been slowly working on it due to the heat, but I've learned a few VERY SIMPLE things to make wiring your car a lot easier. I'm not done, yet, but I'm going to relate what I've learned so far both from personal experience and through the videos. Here we go. First thing is make sure...
