It really is a solid running car, only rust is passenger strut tower, bottom of passenger door and radiator support.
$1,400 OBO 41,500 original miles, lots of new parts.

Engine Tech / A/C Pulley Noise
For future reference, that bypass pulley works but the hardware sucks. We had to put regular bolts through with lock washers to attach it.

Engine Tech / A/C Pulley Noise
I'm also considering this as a temporary solution until next summer: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rnb-34163
Will this fit my 4/86 T-Bird? It only lists until 1986, were the compressor bolt holes different between '86 and '87?
Thanks.

Engine Tech / A/C Pulley Noise
Does it sound like I can just get away with a new pulley since it's just noisy and working fine?
Thanks.

Is there a bearing that I can replace or the pulley itself? I'm not too experienced with A/C stuff. I want to keep this as cheap a replacement as possible. Lol
Thanks!

Suspension/Steering / Price To Re-Pack Front Bearings
Quote from: Haystack;435437
They make good road trip cars.
I averaged 28mpg when i did my t-5 swap (compareable .68 od vs apd's .67 od) over 1300 miles when i ran it out to montana. i had over 500lbs of tools and all our luggage with me when we went too. got pulled over a few times in idaho and searched for drugs cause my bumper was draggin.
I don't think I'll make it through PA without getting pulled over 5 times with a spray painted T-Bird with NY plates. Lol
Mavis said there was a little play on both sides, checked everything, retightened and it's good now. Should at least get me through to when I can do them with my friend. Only cost $32. Everyone have a good and safe holiday!!

Suspension/Steering / Price To Re-Pack Front Bearings

Id let ya bring it over one afternoon and help you do it for free, of course you'd buy parts and drive 2200miles.
That would be a cool road trip, but not really worth it for bearings. Lol

Suspension/Steering / Price To Re-Pack Front Bearings
I don't have the time or the space to do any work involving lifting the car. What do you think I can expect to pay to have the wheel bearings done at a Mavis or Meineke type place? What's a fair price to pay for labor? I already have new bearings if they need to be replaced instead of just being re-packed.
Thanks!
