    Hatch Won't Stay Shut

    Thanks for the help guys, ordering a new bushing now. Found a little bit of it floating around when I was trying to adjust the striker bolt. Didn't even know there was a bushing on there... EDIT: I only see door bushings on LMR...will it work?

    Headlight screws/clips/ugh

    I tried tightening the loos screws (as duh as that sounds) but if they are supposed to thread back in I can't get it to work. I'm just going to go try and get it inspected anyway, I'll try a different station. I would like to get them adjusted properly in the future so I'll keep working on the...

    Headlight screws/clips/ugh

    That was exactly the tip I needed thanks! Unfortunately whoever put the headlights back together used some of the originals and some new screws. Of course the ones with rusted nuts are different screws with no hex at the end. And there is no room to get a pair of pliers on them AND a wrench...

    Headlight screws/clips/ugh

    So these are the screws holding the headlight to the car. The nuts are rusted on to the screws. And this is one of the clips that hold the screw into the headlight. This one is in just fine, others are missing or disconnected. This allows the screw to spin freely in the headlight assembly...

    Headlight screws/clips/ugh

    The easy solution is order a new headlight, but that still requires me ripping off the headlight that's on there now. I'll go out and get a picture. Thanks for the input.

    Headlight screws/clips/ugh

    Free state inspections, tried the private option once. A friend said they would refer me to a place that'd pass me. $80 later I failed for metal pedals, windshield wipers, tires. I did consider the option of wedging something in there so it doesn't move around but I was hoping someone has...

    Headlight screws/clips/ugh

    No I'm talking about getting the Ford OEM pieces off so I can reattach the screws to the housing with the clips.

    Headlight screws/clips/ugh

    So I went to get the pwny inspected a few weeks ago and failed, because my headlights are jiggly. I managed to get the passenger side all tightened up but the driver side is another issue. Long story short, the damn screws that clip into the headlight assembly have come loose so they spin...

    Easy on the throttle there big guy!

    Once he's about to leave the road he lets off but then you hear him punch it again when he hits the grass...strange. That car sounded nice though, high rpms.

    biggest/best tire size on 10 holes?

    What do you think about 245/60R15 Radial T/A's? I think I'm taking my 03 cobras off the rear and putting the 10 holes back on. I'm tired of 2 different sets of wheels.

    4 to 5 lug adapters

    So far I have spent: on the rear: 125 - axles 70 - NEW drums 30 - NEW gear oil, gasket, etc on the front: 75 - 2001 gt calipers 150 - spindles, hubs, NEW rotors then you can count on 50-150 for NEW pads, brake lines if you need them, etc. It's not cheap but it is possible on a budget if you...
