COMET CENTRAL

So if I order a 65/66 mustang sway bar it will just bolt up to my 65 comet yes??

And I was going to go 1" but now i'll go bigger

cheers!

Of course I could be wrong.

Still just on the bench I wrenched it. If I can go another gun-turret or two on the castle nut I think I can get the cotter pin in

I'll put it in the vise later and crank it some more.

The last pic looks about right if you have not tried to tighten it yet . after it's torqued down it should come on up some.

Ok. I thought that might be the case.....CHEERS!

Sorry lol. I meant 1/2"

Hi team, Shown in the pics below are some moog tie rod ends that are suppose to be 69 to 73 mustang. And also i'm showing two spindles.......left is a C8 (for comparison) and the right is a D1ZA. The tie rod will not fit the C8 at all, but only goes part way on the D1ZA, doesn't seem to go enough to...

good thing it has the tracks ,they are hard to find. the outer mounts same as a bench seat holes. on bucket seat cars the inner rear mount came from the factory with just a spacer . so use what ever you decide for the spacer. My 65 already had the holes but had been brazed up. it kinda seemed like ...

Well I did manage to score those seats after all. Was a 6 hour run there and back but I understand they are hard to find. Cheers I call that a win! Anytime you can score something rare on a day trip. Joe Thanks Joe. Now I need to find out where they bolt to the floor. Is there suppose to be extra f...

I have a set from 1965 Caliente buckets and rear seat I am in Maryland

Can you send me price and pics?

Unfortunately they aren't in my hands yet. The guy is going to let me know :cry: If it doesn't work out, something else will come along. I love the old T-Bird seats but they're probably getting hard to find. Had chrome frame around the bolsters. Had a green pair in a black Mustang long time ago :mr...

It can only go together one way, the sector shaft and the tie rod hole are tapered.

Very true. I see that now.

As far as the ball joint in the idler arm.........I assume I have to tighten the castle nut until the center link is tight against that?

Ok never mind

I found it in another post (below) and is correct........whew!

Hi all,

Does this look correct?

The rod end of the pitman arm goes on top of the center link if manual steering and using the correct center link for a 65 comet/falcon?
Because if I compare it to a 67 mustang I have here, the pitman goes underneath on that one.

Finally got my shipment from OpentrackRacing.

I didn't know the pitman arm ( rod end ) was tapered.
Best way to learn is to have these things in your hand.

At least it took the guesswork out of which way the pitman sits.
