Sounds and looks like you're off to a good start.
When you post pics that are hosted on photobucket, just use the IMG code, not the one you've bene using, as the pics will come right up.

Good luck!


thanks that works alot better :hick:

well the rear is in. Started on the motor, still have to get the heads done, 1.90, 1.60 valves. My friend gave me a HO cam so thats in. The machine shop suggested 1.7 pedestal rockers with the ho cam. Waiting on the engine harness and then ill pull out the 3.8. And as always still hunting parts before I can proceed any farther.

Hi guys,nubie here posting for first time. Does anyone have equivalent data for the struts? I just did the big brake/spindle swap with polyurethane bushings and lowered height by 1'' and am considering strut swap from fox mustang onto my 84 cougar. Thanks,Mark:canada:    PS: I know this a rear shock thread, sorry for the hi-jack.


only thing with that i saw is the strut has less threads(Mustang) , it went on no problem.  :D

Ok im thinking about the kyb agx shocks for the near of the 88 tbird.
Just looking for your opinions on these shocks. I listed the factory tbird lengths for comparsion. And the agx's will be used with chucks mounts.
 Heres some measuresment :
                    88 tbird ---            88 mustang---                95 mustang

compressed    14.75---              12.125 ---                      14.5
  ------open              23.75---              19.75---                        19.125
  ------travel            9.00---                7.625---                        4.625

So 87-93 or 94 up???
