QA1 strut issue

[Rick James]

Hey guys,i was mocking up my qa1 coilovers ,qa1 arms and sn95 spindles (with the ball joint spacer for the fox ball joint) and noticed the strut body below the mount for the spindles is so long that if i simulate the wheel turning it hits the control arm.Are they the wrong struts?my bro in law actually bought the coilovers and arms years ago and never used them and gave them to me.thanks

 

[Rick James]

This thread is from 2013. I wonder if the dude still has the car.

Yeah true, I saw that after posting and thought the same but the I figured maybe dude still remembers. Dang I hope so cause I don’t have the funds to get a new set of coilovers at tho time.

Well.... You did the next best thing: Revived an old thread that others will likely chime in on.

I recall seeing this issue pop up before. Make sure you look at the "Similar Threads" window (scroll all the way to the bottom of this page). You may find your answer in one of those threads.

It's kinda ridiculous that the original poster (albeit 7 years ago), took the time to say he figured it out and didn't say what it was.
Not sure how that makes any sense. I guess maybe he typed with 1 finger at a time and it would have taken too long.

2013 was pretty crappy for cell phone keyboards

I [still] don't think cell KBs are worth a crap though they're considerably better than then they were.

You and I are part of the full keyboard generation. lol

I use two fingers and have no problem typing nonsense here!
he likely was too embarrassed to post the 'fix' 'cause he had the strut upside down.

...or he sold the car.

If you use android (not sure on an iPhone), try swiftkey.
Pretty customizable and I find it might easier to use than the Samsung or google keyboard.

Well let's get started, year, model stang, what year spindle used and maybe some pics.
we want to make sure you are not installing something upside down

1990 mustang, sn95 spindle from a 96 and up i believe. I know they’re not from a 94 or 95. I don’t have any pictures at this time sorry.
