    Need help with convertible top

    Mine won't go completely down unless I un-tuck the fabric from the two pivot points (on top and on the rear quarters).

    Need help with convertible top

    I had a problem with my 85' years ago and couldn't afford to replace the ram so I turned it into a manual top. I unhooked the rams from the top. It was easy to get down and a bitch to get back up (you had to stand in on the back seat to get it up). You might try un-hooking the rams, leaving...

    Stock gearing

    I would try 50resto.com or maybe someone has one you can have ... I'd send you mine but I just tossed it when I went to 3.73. Of course, you're all setup for 3.73.. why make the switch?

    Stock gearing

    Just looking at your numbers ... 60/85=.70~ 30% off ... 2.73 *1.3 = 3.55~ I would guess you have a 23 tooth gear setup for a 3.55 or 3.73 rear end but you need the old 19 tooth gear which is for the Stock 2.73 rearend.

    Opinion...

    I would do the 3.73 gears first before anything else. Up here in the Mile High City (Denver), the stock rear made my 90' AOD a real dog. I've just done the rear end so far and it's now a very nice ride. I don't know the number but I would say 0-60 stock is in the 9 second range, with just the...

    How much do gears really help?

    I got it www.50resto.com. They shipped it quick. Just make sure you get the correct one for your tranny type. Also, there is no gear for 3.73 so you just get one for a 3.55 ... it's really close (4.8% off) so at 80 your really doing 76. I think it was the 23 tooth gear.

    How much do gears really help?

    I just did mine 2 weeks ago. Very nice mod. It cost me $800 for everything. A little high but it was with a perimium shop that did a great job for me. Don't forget the speedo gear! I noticed a change in MPG from 23 to 21 mostly highway driving. The biggest difference is that my trany...

    cruise control

    I just fixed mine. While driving, try holding down the set/accelerate button. On mine, when I held down the button, the cuise would work ... as soon as I let go, it would stop. To fix, I plugged the vacuum hose at the top of the brake peddle. I'm not sure what that hose does; in fact...

    Do they make glass headlights for a fox?

    I just installed a replacement set from 50resto.com. They cost $79 plus shipping. They are plastic like the original but at that price, I'll just replace them when they yellow. Boy, what a difference ... they look great.

    Bypassing the factory Amp in a '91

    I just installed a new stereo and I bypassed the factory amp using a wiring harness from crutchfield.com. If you add a highend stereo to a cart for your car, it will show you all the adapters you'll need to install the deck. Once it does that, just click on the wireing harness in the cart for...
