A while back I discovered that the brake light on one side of my '73 Runabout didn't work. To make this situation more annoying was the fact that BOTH turn...
Hey Gerald- Sounds crafty. I've got to do the same thing later on in my '76 build here since the turn signal switch has been out for years. I haven't looked...
Wouldn't have been easier to see if anyone within the group had one laying around that they like to sell? ... my '73 ... you ... bought ... got ... codes ... ...
Probably doesn't effect our cars...but it is interesting nonetheless. Lefty, what about Amsoil...just a question Bug, don't flame me. Dave Duffey 74 Runabout...
You can't add hyperlinks to post, you have to actually cut and paste the address for us to get it. Bug [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
I believe I did ask,,, no one seemed to have one. I could have got one from eBay but the seller wanted $70 plus shipping and work has been REALLY SLOW lately...
To be honest I'm not sure what else used the same switch as an '80. When I checked on eBay for a '73 switch, the description on the listing said what all it...
Hello all- Kit from Austin again. I've got all my ducks lined up to buy a clutch and I got my '88 t-tird T5 rebuilt and everything, and it has come to my...
Sorry, I must have missed that posting. I just scrapped a rusted 78 Mustang II. At least $12 didn't kill the bank. Taking advantage of my own solution-I'm...
Hey Kit. Which rear end do you have? I've got a 3.55 8". If yours is an 8" would you rather swap third members and keep your newly built tranny? JT (in WAY...
Well, this is what happens when the insomnia kicks in. If you have oil filter clearance problems (in my case, a v8 swap with custom solid motor mounts), you...
Good info, Jeff. The short filters are ok if you're on tight budget. If you can afford to spend a few bucks, your right that the better way to go is a remote...
Hey JT- Thanks but I went and got an 8" Maverick rear about a year ago and put in a locker and new diamond 4.11 gears and everything so I'm kind of attached to...
Most of the bigger wrecking yards and even some public libraries have what is known as the Hollander interchange manuals. This is the bible of the auto...
Hello all- Really amateur question here, but I'm trying to see if my '76 pinto alternator pulley will fit onto my '88 alternator for the swap I'm doing. I'm...

Great! Thanks Bug. I'll give that a try tonight. The reason I thought it might be threaded is just that the inner diameter of the washer seemed to fit so...
Ok, I got home and took a swing at it and still no dice. I've got some penetrating oil sitting on the pulley. I noticed that I already had a nut AND...

Ok, as long as they are separate-able this should all be worth it. God I hope it lines up on the t-bird alt. :) I guess I'll just go for broke assuming it...
Okay- Note to all. The pinto pulley does NOT fit on the t-bird alternator (the pulley diameter is too big so the pulley is loose). And even if it weren't...
... of a `94-95 Mustang GT or `89-93 Thunderbird/ Cougar 5.0L it sounded like from your post that I can also just pull the harness off of that same car ...
Cool, I'll get that one then when i'm out a-rummaging. Thanks Bug. Kit ... of a `94-95 Mustang GT or `89-93 Thunderbird/ Cougar 5.0L it sounded like from...
This is Darian in Ky and thanks for letting me ask this really dumb question. How wide is the widest point of the 80 pinto trunk style that I have to pick up...
I have replaced almost everything on my front end of my 79 mercury bobcat wagon. Tie rod ends, ball joints, bushing, rotors, bearings, and I still have a tiny...
