Help me Identify these please... Reply #7 – November 01, 2006, 01:56:30 AM Hah! Your underbody looks in awesome shape compared to the horrors I encountered rolling under my car the other night. Quote Selected
Help me Identify these please... Reply #8 – November 01, 2006, 03:20:35 AM HAHAHAH thats funny. I'm planning on pretty much por-15ing the heck out of the entire underside of the car. i just did the door bottoms and a rocker panel, and it looks pretty neat. And considering it dries gloss black, i dont even have to paint! Quote Selected
Help me Identify these please... Reply #9 – November 01, 2006, 03:24:23 AM Hmmm, this POR-15 looks like it might be a good solution to stop the flaky rust that's starting underneath the car. , though $125 for a gallon? How much would it take to do the underbody of the car? Quote Selected

One quart will cover 96 square feet in one coat, so I'd say no more than 2 quarts at the most. Its the best stuff ive ever seen, and well worth the money. Quote Selected
Help me Identify these please... Reply #12 – June 14, 2007, 02:47:29 AM Just an update on this one. I found a replacement set of bushings for 71.34 shipped, and instead of the nylon they origionaly came with, they are solid aluminum. Now here's the problem. Ive been looking at a couple of different sets of southsides thinking that for that price, i may just be able to replace them outright. I have to say, the ones i have on my car are looking a lot different than most ive seen. For example, my swyaybar bolts through the bar, and is attatched on the inside of the liftbars. Also, I see all the southside bars have a or something the extends underneath them.Are we completely sure these are southsides??? I remember a member on here having to lengthen them by 3/4 of an inch to make them fit right on an 88 bird....mine have all the appearance of never being cut at all. I'm starting to think that these anr't southsides.... what do you all say?? I'll mesure the length of them tommarow for arguments sake. Quote Selected
Help me Identify these please... Reply #13 – June 14, 2007, 10:32:30 AM In regards to the POR-15, just remember you cant just leave it exposed to the elements (mainly UV) in order for it to prevent rusting it must be topcoated with some form of paint! Quote Selected
Help me Identify these please... Reply #14 – June 14, 2007, 10:52:41 AM I thought SSM only made Mustang length bars? Didn't 83-88tbird guy cut a set up for his 460 TC to correct that? Quote Selected
