Roll Bars/Gages/subframe connectors
EastYorkStang replied to EastYorkStang's topic in 1969-70 Technical Forum
Thanks for that Pak. Read through it and got some more ideas. I'm working on a '79 Zephyr Boxtop as well and was thinking about doing the subframe connectors on that as well! Hopefully he will chime in with an update?! -
On my '70 I am thinking about redoing the subframe connectors to actually go through tthe floor. Along with stringers to the rockers. Has anyone done this? I have connectors that are under the car but I have to fix the floor and thought about installing a Roll bar to stiffen up the car as well. Are there Roll Bars out there that are good? Thanks

Count me in for a reasonably priced set!

69/70 Mustang 2" drop Rear Leaf Springs
EastYorkStang replied to gregs's topic in 1969-70 Technical Forum
I have reversed eye lowered springs. I had them made for the car with thicker springs. Then I utilized 3" blocks to get it to sit just right. Never had wheel hop. Tucks the wheel up quite nicely! -
Water Wetter work wonders! Used it in my '70 and it must have dropped 10-20 degrees...
-
I looked into another set for my '70 but was deterred by the price. I went with HID's instead.

I have a '79 Zephyr if that counts. Putting in the driveline from an '89 5.0L to make it more interesting...

do i have to change valve covers to go roller
EastYorkStang replied to specialfinds's topic in 1969-70 Technical Forum
I have rollers as well under my stock covers. I used two cork gaskets for the additional clearance. -
Great point! I change the oil in the spring after I bring the car out of storage. No problems yet! I don't think I've driven it 5k in a single year...

I took the column apart and found this switch with the rod in it. Loosened it and tried to adjust but didn't solve the problem. Yes, the key does swing back. But I don't have a radio to try that out. Any other ways of checking i? If I replace the switch is it the actual key part or the whole rod/key/contacts?
-
Tried this but no difference...
-
On my '70 Fastback when I turn the key on the starter engages. When I twist it to where it's supposed to be engaged it shuts off. Any thoughts? Looked at the plunger on the column and it seems right. Nothing has changed except for this out of the blue... Thanks

I need help with 18-20 inch wheels
EastYorkStang replied to 197DMach1's topic in 1969-70 Technical Forum
What rubber do you have now? Most tire manufacturers have spec sheets listing the dimensions of their tires. Compare what you have with what you are going with. -
When I removed mine I used a large pair of adjustable pliers and squeezed the heck out of it. Worked for me! I first tried just pushing until I got fed up.
-
Back before I changed my '70 to a more road racing suspension with a 302/C4/3-1pegleg I would do 15.8's in the quarter. On a side note I bought an '88 LX 5.0L 5speed new and right out of the gate I was doing 14.19's with it, stock.

Which wires control what?
-
What do I have to jump or do when I take out the C4 and replace it with a T5?

What method is best to tighten belts? I used to use a long pry bar until I cracked the alt. housing. Just installed new belts and they still squeal! Thanks .d

Mine are the same way, running Headman swap headers for a 351/cable clutch. I run socks on the straight boots. Also running World Products senior heads.
