Mustang Tech

I bought the cd with all the factory manuals for your year on it through npd. It was $50US from memory. Very handy to have.

De Beers was the brand the paint shop suggested too. Thanks Boof!

I've got a good quality full face mask and can get disposable overalls etc from work. I was leaning toward using 2pak but I'm not sure on what products etc work together

Hi All, I've nearly finished the underside of my coupe and am at the planning stage for paint and bodywork. Is Intergard the best primer to apply over bare metal and can it be used under acrylic or only 2pak? I'm not sure whether to go with 2 pak or use acrylic. What are the pros/cons of both system...

No worries mate. The calipers are easy enough to find. I got mine off eBay $230 recoed and powder coated.

I've still got an XF brake set up gathering dust in the shed and will separate parts if you want. I'm up near Toowoomba so freight may be a killer though.

Funny seeing that Kerry, there's a few R2000 radials lying around at work!!

Thanks ShaunP, i was looking at the jag front end with original chassis, maybe with falcon leaf rear.

Yeah I've got that magazine at home the guy was a Toowoomba local. I was looking at 70's hilux /courier /nissan 720 as they have a separate chassis.

Hi All, a local farm has a half dozen or so 40's era trucks sitting in a paddock. I'm not sure of type could be Ford, Chev etc. There's also 70's jap utes everywhere locally sitting it paddocks. Can the older body be put on the later chassis and registered legally in Queensland? I've googled on can'...

Thanks for the info guys!

Hi All, I've been doing some work on my nephews EF Falcon and the brake light switch looks very similar to the one fitted to the 69. The wiring plug is different and the spring tension is much lighter. Anyone used one for a power disc conversion before? My thought was using a common part available a...

Yeah looks like cutting the unsplined section is the go. There is only 10 mm extra space beyond the splines in the box.
Thanks for the info guys.

Good pic Hybrid. Also, just a comment, the photo of the two shafts look like the tailshafts are to short anyway. A lot of junk on the Yoke which obviously never moved inside the box passed the seal. Interesting you say that Boof, I've seen 50" quoted as tailshaft length for early Mustangs and ...

From memory the problem I had with the XD conversion was the splines in the yoke weren't cut deep enough, which is the reason for the excess length beyond the seal on the short yoke. I'll try and compare how far the yokes go into both boxes and try the XB yoke I have as well.

Hi All, I'm gathering parts for an Aod conversion. I have a couple of Falcon V8 tailshafts lying around and found the old shaft from the AOD XD. For that conversion I used the stock XD C4 yoke and shortened the tailshaft by 1 inch. Comparing it to the Mustang C4 yoke there is a couple of inches diff...
