    Adapted Manual Steering

    A few months ago I saw a thread where a guy put a manual steering rack in his later model car without buying the whole kit. I believe he used the rack from an 85 Mustang. This is also what I want to do. Can anyone give me some help on what I need? I want to use my PS shaft and use the...

    Lower TB Welding Importance

    I have the seams welded up on my uppers. I ordered a kit that bolts in for the lowers. How important is it to fully weld this kit in? Will there be any difference on the lower TB if I just bolt it in compared to bolt and weld? I wanted to weld it in but someone told me that all it needs is...

    Twofold Question - Striker and Belt

    I need to order a new hatch striker for my 91 Fox. However 50 resto sells one for the 91-93 and also for the 87-91. Which one do I need? My other question may not have an answer. I bought my car with at least a water pump pulley (others look stock - may not be) and the smog deleted. I...

    Underhood Equipment Question

    What are the devices and plugs located on the passenger side between the firewall and the strut mount near the fender? They are bolted into the sheetmetal and I don't know what it is and would love to rip it out! Also, I have removed the cruise control from behind the driver's fender. What is...

    Ford Alarm System

    I bought a 91 LX 5.0. It has a 5 spd but was originally an auto. It also has the Ford Alarm which I want to take out since it looks, to say the least, non-factory. What are the implications of simply ripping the thing out (not literally rip)? Are there connectors I need to reconnect to...

    Edelbrock RPM II Intake and Trick Flow Heads

    Do the ports match up correctly? I assume they would. I have gotten recommendations to go with the RPM II over a Trick Flow Intake for my 347, which has Trick Flow heads. Let me know if it will work properly and also what the best intake would be for a 347 making around 375-400 to the wheels...

    Wheel/Axle Shopping

    I know there are a lot of wheel threads on here, however, I have a simple question and couldn't find a simple answer. I have 4 lug right now. If I switch to 5 lug it will be stock width products. Since I am just going to get some Welds, I don't need to switch to 5 lug for wheel fitment...

    Spline Question

    In order to go from 28 to 31 spline do you need anything besides 2 31 spline axles and a 31 spline diff? Is a diff something that just drops in or do you have to work with the gears and have them realigned, etc?
