    Which Axles?

    I need to replace an axle. I called Tousley, but they said that Ford isn't making axles for our cars anymore, and suggested an aftermarket purchase. Right now my car is really just a street car that is lightly modified, so a 28 spline axle is fine, and I don't have the money to upgrade...

    This will be the fourth time (gears)

    There has been a problem after about two years each time. First was 4:10's. Then twice with 4:30's. I don't race the car. I have the stock differential and axles. Different installers each time. Am I that unlucky? Or is there something else I should be looking at. Steve

    If you guys could give some opinions on this I would be really grateful. I am looking to buy my first house. This house is really a beautiful piece of work, but there are some cracks in the brick work. It is about 30 years old, and sits on the side of a wooded mountain here in Kentucky. I...

    FOund this today on the trunk lid. Can anyone advise on a way to fix this myself? Or should I just get the trunk lid repainted? You can see my desperate attempt to stop the bleeding by slathering on the last of my bottle of touch up. The paint on this car leaves a lot to be desired.

    I have been getting a scraping noise from the rear end. It is the same in gear as it is in neutral - as long as the car is moving. I recently had the wheel bearings replaced, so I know that it is not it. While they were being replaced, I saw the ring and pinion - and they both looked good. I...
