If you go the crown vic route, you could get the rotors all set up ahead of time and have a local machine shop drill them. That would save you...
I like this idea, it should be simple to make and would be pretty solid. Similar to the GTO remote shifter, but maybe a little easier to...
Sorry, I wasn't trying to imply that everything would match up- I realize that they're different systems, but there are some things that would...
I'm guessing you have a small bearing but don't you have 5x5.5 axles already? If so you could do the crown vic swap (explorer won't work on small...
What do you want to know? I have one..
For e-brakes, you can try to figure out the stock setup, which looks like that's what 4woody did. You can also get a set of cables from lokar,...
That GTO shifter is a pretty cool idea, but I don't know how easy that would be to make... [ATTACH] Maybe if you had two shifters, you could...
The relay should go after the switch though. The switch should only be sending a signal to the relay to open and the relay will give the juice to...
You need a relay in there because those solenoids draw a pretty good amount of power. If you're going through the remote, they usually have a...
Sure thing. If you need any more info about it, PM me and I'll try to help out with specifics. It's pretty simple though and there are probably...
Ouch! A foot is quite a bit. Is that just so you can shift it or so that the shifter clears the seat? I guess I mean with the shifter in 2nd or...
I remember looking into Keisler when I did mine, but decided on that being too expensive- coulda bought a fresh TKO by that point instead of a...
Your bearing spacer was only .13"? I got the "actual" spacers for the explorer disc swap from strange sitting right here and they're almost a...
I couldn't tell you for sure without looking at the axle flange, but I would imagine that you'd be able to go up that little bit. Mine are all...
I thought you had the tag all figured out, no? The 5L73888H31 tag is the one you want. That 5 is probably a 3L73, which makes it 3.73. That's...
I'm hoping to do at least Racine, depending on if I have my doors back on! Kinda hard to drive on the interstate without them!
The od of the axle tubes are 3.25. I don't know about the axles themselves. Overall width from wms to wms is 59.5-59.75.
I don't know personally but I know the guy that bought my old engine was replacing a 52 or so Pontiac 6 that someone else had put in his 35 before...
I'd be interested in that article too!
Wish I could help but I got rid of mine a while ago. What do you have? Coupe sedan? As the other guy said pics would be nice even if they're just...
I hate to be a "intro cop" but there are rules for the forum as far as where to post first. I'm new here too so I know what it's like to need...
Are you sure it's in the springs? Check the frame height from the ground and the body from the frame and compare the sides. It could be the body...
Check with Posies, they might even be the springs you have under there. I have their leafs and they are 2" wide. I bought lowering blocks from...
I got mine from masterpower brakes. http://www.mpbrakes.com/ Check out their how-to's and faq's. Lots of good info about setups..
Napa lines and bought a hand bender and flaring tool from Summit. Easy and you can make it fit any way you want. Clips, you can get the plastic...
A guy asked my buddy and I while we were working on his 69 Mach 1 if it had the Cummins in it.... Yea... That's what it's got- a 351W Cummins!...
Hmm I guess I didn't check the widths of the springs. I'll have to look into that to see If they're truely parallel..
Yes, that's pretty much what I've always seen and known- front only or front and rear. That's why I was all confused at why people have been...
Right, my buddy's explorer, which certainly would fall under the "topheavy" category has a huge bar up front and a little tiny guy in the back......
I have the same setup, fatman front and posies rear leafs. Why did the safety team have a problem with the setup? What do those guys usually...
