    Steeroids Rack & Pinion???

    I searched, but couldn't find where the Steeroids R&P for our cars had gone to market, and how the product turned out. There was a very long thread detailing how it was developed, but so far I don't know what people who bought it think of it. Anyone know?

    Convert mechanical speedo to electronic?

    Okay, I'll be the first to admit that I don't know a lot about mechanics & electronics, so pardon moi if this is a boneheaded question (like "can I run diesel in my gas engine?"). Anyway, I'm getting ready to build a new gauge cluster for my 67, but the speedo I want to use only comes in...

    Foxbody seats in a 60's Mustang?

    I've been steadily upgrading my 67 since I got it (funny, because when I first got it I planned to leave it completely stock...that lasted about 4.8 minutes). Anyway, one thing I don't like about the car are the seats. They are in good shape, but I'd like a headrest and a bit of side...

    Oh, the humanity.

    This morning I saw a spectacle I never expected to see: A classic Mustang with spinners. :bang: This was a very clean baby blue 65-66 convertible, looked all original except for the stock-sized spinners. (spinnaz, yo. werd. knowhutmsayin?) I don't know if they were actually...

    Updates on Rack & Pinion kits???

    I've been reading through the archived threads and it seems that the old concensus was that Flaming River's R&P kit wasn't up to snuff because of design/engineering shortcomings. I couldn't find any recent posts about the topic, so I'm wondering if FR has gotten their act together and...

    my rear end feels loose :)~ (help)

    see sig for suspension mods. when cornering hard it feels like the axle will shift slightly, like the tire on the outer edge of the curve lags behind, then snaps forward. this sends a shimmy through the car, which, coupled with my worn-out steering mech, is very unsettling because it...

    engine run-on after ignition turned off??

    My friend has a mid-50's Chevy with a built 350, and he says that when he turns the ignition off, the engine keeps running (kind of a stumbly idle), and he has to push in the gas pedal & flood the thing to get it to die. Any suggestions as to where he might begin troubleshooting? Thanks.

    Strut Rods: Global West vs. Street or Track?

    My car is handling great now compared to when I first started out. My next project is the strut rods. I've searched the archives and it seems like people are favoring these: http://www.streetortrack.com/adjustable-strut-rods.asp or...

    weld-in subframe conn's & chassis load/twist?

    Getting ready to weld in my GW tubular subframe connectors. How should the car be lifted to ensure that the the car's subframes are not loaded/twisted? I don't want to weld my subs in and end up with a permanently twisted car.... Thanks, and happy 4th. :flag:

    bypassing brake distribution block....

    I installed my new MC, and with the rear brake line, I'm planning to bypass the dist. block, and have the line go from MC, through Baer adjustable prop. valve, direct to rear brakes. That will leave the rear brake ports on the distribution block open. I know that this will cause a permanent...

    people with rear disc brakes...

    Okay, what did you have to do to make your parking brake work? I have a Baer setup, and it seems to be completely incompatible with my stock parking brake cables (which I removed for now). The stock drum parking brake cable entered the drum at approx. a 45 deg angle; the Baer parking...

    Drop Springs + UCA Drop = still too high. any recommendations before I cut my coils?

    Okay, like it says, I've put in 620# lowering coils and GW Neg Roll UCAs (which mounts approx 1.25" below stock location). With my 17x8" rims & 235 45 17 Nittos, there is still a gap of about 1.5" between the fender lip and the tire; my 4.5 leaf mideye rears put the tire perfectly up inside...

    4 wheel Baers installed; must bend brake lines. This kit any good? (link)

    I did my Baer 4 wheel disc conversion this Saturday. I wasn't able to install the new M/C and proportioning valve because I need to bend and flare the new hardlines which came with the kit. I also need to cut and re-flare my rear hardlines so I don't have so much excess brakeline hanging out...

    Must. Adjust. Camber. Or. Die. (Adjustment Questions)

    I just installed my GW Neg Roll UCA's, and rather than lower the car another inch and introduce negative camber, the car sits at the same height as before, and the tires angle out like this: \-/ That's extreme positive camber, right? And what's worse is that on 3/4 lock, the ball joint hits...

    car makes strange noises while parked.

    when the car is in the garage, a few hours after being driven, it makes these strange "burping" noises every few minutes. erk. erk. erk. I've listened, and I can't pinpoint where it's coming from, other than the front end. is it the coolant system losing pressure as it cools...
