    Hello, I'm planning a Coyote resto-mod on my 1965 Falcon. And I have a general idea what needs to be done. My only question is, if I plop in a new rear end (a 8.8" or 9") and pair it with the existing 170cu l6, what challenges can I expect? I plan on using 31 splines with 5 lugs, but may use...

    Not a lot of options out there for Falcon rear springs, particularly if you want a little more rate, change in height or more anti-wrap. Seems the only option was to go custom, at great cost. Then, out of nowhere, it seems Summit sells 2 inch lowering springs for $95 for the pair: Summit...

    New Idler Arm's bushing diameter different from Idler Arm Bracket I recently purchased a roller idler arm for my 1965 Mustang coupe, and I just got the original one off tonight. When I compared the bushing diameter on the old one with that of the new one, I noticed that there's quite a...

    Seems to be a common theme. Been commuting for a few weeks in my Falcon (which is why I bought it). It wanders pretty badly on the freeway. At last check, all the tie rod ends looked good, and I just replaced the front bearings in doing by disc brake swap (chokostang 4-pot swap). It doesn't...

    Lowered with lowering springs all around 2". Now when I jack up the rear by the axle housing, the springs almost fall out. Do I need to replace the shocks, and if so, how do I know what shocks to get. Help!
