What method did you use to press/tap the bushings in for the 2 detent pins?
@RacingRejects5 ай бұрын
It’s been so long since I did it I honestly can’t remember exactly, but I most likely stuck them in the freezer for a minute to shrink them a bit and then used a socket that was slightly smaller than the bushing to tap them in place.
@user-br3wz8rl5w5 ай бұрын
@@RacingRejects Alright thanks; I was thinking about buying one of those tool kits that are used to tap the detent bushings in on ZF 5sp transmissions on E36's and seeing if any of those fit for these, but I will try this if that doesn't work.

Your car, truck, whatever your beater…😂😆 That got me, thanks for the video. I’m about to comet wash my old 72 Ranger XLT… I heard Freiburger talk about comet washing old vehicles on roadkill but he never really went into detail about it. Thanks for the video. I bet if you comet washed it and then used a mineral spirits and boiled linseed oil it would look amazing. Check that out if you haven’t. I think it’s 2 parts linseed oil to 1 part mineral spirits.

It is THE reason why Nissan turbo charged the Supras. The Conquest would walk away from the non turbo Supras and 280/ 300zs. It's not a power monster it just forced other companies to improve on their own products.

We have a 57 f100 and we are wanting to restore and swap as well. We are new to this. Do you have an email or contact info to ask some questions and get some recommendations?
Hi, you were my inspiration to pick up and restore a 66 Mustang coupe. I don't drive it as much as you do yet but it is my only vehicle, so whenever I need to go places this is it. It took hundreds of hours to get to be safe, mostly because I had to learn how to make extensive rust repairs and made mistakes with the engine rebuild but I don't really have breakdowns either. I am thankful that you shared your experience so we may benefit. Have fun and tear it up on the road if you still have the Cougar.

I second all of your suggestions and comments, and I have found them to be true. I will add that yes, DD'ing classics make you pay much more attention to the road but that also makes the drive more alive and rewarding. I will also add that four-wheel drums can stop and stop well, even coming off the highway. You just can't do it repeatedly.
