    Rear End Gear Question

    Geno is wrong. I have tested it myself, with a side gear and an axle with a circlip. Once it goes in, it does not come back out. If you want to do it, go right ahead, but you will invent new swear words trying to get it back out of there. It simply doesn't work. I don't know why this is...

    Rear End Gear Question

    All supercoupes got the 8.8 rear, and even some of the NA V6 cars got the 8.8. The 94/95 auto SCs could have either a TL or an open, but all the 5-speed SCs and all the 89-93 auto SCs got the TL. Also, at least on 89-92 tbirds and cougars, the rear disc brakes, ABS, and 8.8 TL all came as one...

    Rear End Gear Question

    If you put a trak-lok out of a solid axle car into your IRS, you will never again be able to remove your axles. The side gears are different from IRS to solid axle. IRS side gears have a bevel cut into them so that when you pull them out, it pushes the circlip in and the axle can come out...

    Rear End Gear Question

    Solid axle diffs have different side gears and will not work in an IRS setup. You can use the ring and pinion, but not the TL unit. Your best bet for finding a TL that will work is see if they have a tbird SC in the yard, that will have a TL unit, but you will have to swap the gears from the...

    For all you "warmed over t-bird fans"-CL ad

    Not necessarily. The oil pan gets worn through very quickly once the motor mount breaks, and the only way to change it is to either drop the K-member or pull the motor, and then you have to source an oil pan too. I could easily see someone parking a car because of it. The simple solution to...

    wtb exhaust tip

    Which side do you need? Cause I need just the passenger side tip, so if you need just the driver's side, maybe we can work something out.

    E-Town Open

    Here's a quick pick. Turns out my car was leaning out. I now have an SVT focus pump in there, and it is running much better, so next time at the track I should do better.

    tips and tricks on pulling the irs?

    When it happened to my friend, he was pulling the rear suspension and I was pulling the ABS unit out of the car, and he knelt down next to the car with the torch to cut the shock, and it was slow motion like in an action movie. "No don't torch the BOOOMWHOOOSH!" ::Runs across shop to get fire...

    tips and tricks on pulling the irs?

    My friend did that on a 90 SC we were parting out. Luckily we already had the interior out of it so there was nothing else there to burn, but that was quite the fireball.

    rear and front rotors for gen 2...

    The only way is to find a shop that will re-drill your rotors with the cobra bolt pattern. There is no factory rotor that will fit right with your stock brakes that has a 5x4.5" pattern.

    Cobra plenum install and cruise controll.

    The stock cruise control cable is way too short. From what I have heard, you need to get a cruise control cable for a 96-98 cobra. One of these days I might try to find out how long the cobra mustang one is, and search through the junkyard to see if I can find one that will work. For now...

    Passing without cats..I know I know

    Just get some aftermarket high-flow cats. They are on ebay for about $60 a piece all day long. The driver's side will be a PITA because of the cat being directly on the manifold, but you could even gut that and put a high flow cat right after where it was.
