I got some new ink in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords Magazine
I've been waiting for this to finally hit print. It's my first article written by myself as well as all the photography. I can reall appreciate now what it takes to put together an article like this. It was a lot of work but very rewarding in the end. I think I'm goign to be doing a few more tech articles and look forward to it. Attached are low res pics of the 6-page article and current magazine cover. The article covers how to do a complete brake swap from a newer Mustang GT onto your fox from the first bolt turned to the last including tech tips.
My 1988 GT received a complete brake system from a 2003 Mustang GT. So we took it from stock 4 lug front disc/4 lug rear drum to front 5-lug disc brakes, spindles, and 4 piston PBR front calipers/ rear 5-lug disc brake 2 piston calipers. While I had it apart, I also dropped the car 1.7" with an Eibach spring kit, sway bars kit, and just got the AGX adjustable struts and shocks on. Also added was a set of aftermarket upper and lower rear control arms. Although it's shown with the new Billet Specialties Street Lite Drag wheels, 95% of the time this car rides around on 17" bullitt wheels. It handles and brakes SOOOOO much better, it's amazing.
