I have a foxbody Autopower cage from my old 86gt for sale. Cant remember exactly but paid somewhere around 700.00 for it a few years ago. Price is 300.00 and...
The input shaft in the pic is all one piece. There is a tapered bearing in the end and a shim that rests there as well. It's all in the Helm manuals. I guess...
I have them somewhere, i'll have to dig them up. ... From: Scott Hung <another1_99@...> Subject: Re: [rrax-mustang] Autopower foxbody cage for sale To:...
So I think this will cost too much. On the trans I bought the gear on the input shaft is damage (see below pics), and therefore the gear below it on the lower...
Only one of those tabs needs to be bent down on the bolt, but the other is in reserve for a future rebuild if the first breaks off. 5th gear usually doesn't...
I recently did a bit of reading on this as I was also considering the 3rd link. Considering that I am currently running the EVM Watts, with good results. I...

Any idea where those discussions are taking place? Al Hermans _____ From: rrax-mustang@yahoogroups.com [mailto:rrax-mustang@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of...
Hi Al, Sorry I don't have any specifics but I was searching around for the EVM products when I heard that they were closing up (a while ago). I was just ...

I seem to remember that the damage took place on cars where the 3rd link wasn't properly installed on high BHP drag cars. I've had mine in for 4 years and have...
yes, DEFINITELY corner carvers. very rich with engineers. the opinions you get there will tend to be backed up with solid tech, and not be so much of the, "i...
I've had mine for about four years now too, and haven't had any issues at all that weren't caused by me. (I didn't set the pinion angle properly when I first...
Corner Carvers *can* be a good resource, but be careful what you read and believe. Use it as data to make your own decision...always better to learn the tech...
I'll just add one very general comment. A torque arm car and a 3-link car drive VERY differently. For a street car (where stoplight drag races are the norm)...
Just to refresh some memories, the car in question is a daily driven autoX car that will see occasional track days. I hope to build it up as much as possible...
we have a lot of things here in CA that are not so friendly to the car hobbyist, but inspections are most assuredly NOT one of them. smog is the only thing we...
Actually, for a dedicated CP autoX car, a 3rd link is the way to go. While the Padberg's TA-equipped Mustang seems to rule the day at Nationals, a 3rd link...

it's been a long time since I we had a good ole fashioned wrestling match over 3-links. iirc, the upshot was that the 3-link was superior to the TA iff it is...
I'm not an Autx guy, so I'll let the experts in that field comment for that application. And yes, my analysis assumes you are going to "do it right", which...
I am an autocross guy, and concur with both Scott and Peter. "Done right" a 3 link is superior just for the adjustability. For street cars, it seems to me...
Let me make one more thing really clear. If you're going to make a 3-link work better than a torque arm, you're going to put a LOT of work into it. This is...
On a good day, I am about ¼ as smart as Scott, so needless to say I have years of experience in incorrectly tuning a fully adjustable 3 link. :) -Dave...
dave, since I couldn't tell if you were being sarcastic to Scott... Scotts not just smart as in, "give him a little info and he can figure it out". he's also...
I was not being sarcastic at all and am aware of Scott's knowledge and how he makes his living and respect him 100%. When he types, I listen. Sorry for the...
speaking of tuning yourself out of "the box"... when I got my griggs stuff I was single and had no house or car payments and was generally flush with cash, so...
As a keen newbie in the world of racing suspensions I have been tryng to research what has been done, and is done to mustangs that track or autox. I recently...
   If you look in the other picture of the rear end, I dont think its an axle locator at all. Looks more like an axle brace. The bar is going from the...
Great catch Mike, sorry about missing that. Interesting in itself that no panhard bar or watts link appears to be present? The front spindles are interesting...
That car is very nicely done, and there are a few very nice tricks in it, but in general, the aftermarket has taken us far past this car. The rods you talk...
