    I’m a newbie at this so bear with me. I’d like to purchase a new steering wheel for my ‘66 Mustang. The dealer post for the wheel I’d like to buy indicates that it is for a sector shaft of a certain size- 1 1/8” vs 1”. I know size matters (yuck, yuck) but I don’t get what sector shaft size has...

    I was wondering if a universal steering column would work? I'm trying to make my mustang a drift car and don't care for original parts just whatever is cheapest and will work. The steering column, shaft, and gearbox are missing. Just need options so that I can turn it.

    Hey guys, I have a 65 hardtop and I rebuilt the steering box a few months ago. The steering felt very loose and sometimes I wouldn't realize the car was even turning. I thought it was the box but it didn't improve much. Now I believe it's just the power steering. Is it just old? Is there a way...

    Good day, a few weeks ago I purchased my dream car, “1968 Mustang Fastback”. This car was originally designated with a C-code engine, but it had a swap with a crate, J-code 302. A few things that I need to address, first and foremost, is to remove the 14 inch steel rims with spoked hub caps...

    I’m working to replace my cracked original steering wheel and upon removing it, found this. Is something supposed to be in this red circled wire area? Currently, it’s just exposed wires. Is anything else missing here? This is exactly what I see when removing the steering wheel. Horn doesn’t work...

    Hello. Does anyone else have trouble tightening the pitman arm to centerlink boot for power steering? At a certain point the joint inside the centerlink just spins and you can’t tighten any further

    Hi all, Have a rather complex situation going on. First I’ll start with the backstory. I took the car in for an alignment to a local shop that has a good rep among classic car owners. When I picked it up after the alignment tech said he pulled it into specs but wasn’t happy with it. Said...

    I have a 65 coupe with a 91 5.0 and T5 in it with a Canton 7 quart RR oil pan. It worked great until recently when I freshened up the steering with some Shelby style pitman and idler arms. Now the center link is rubbing on the oil pan very hard except when the steering is centered. The motor is...

    Only when turning left (not right), there is a "thumping" or dulled clunking that increases in frequency the faster the car is moving. I jacked up the front, turned the wheel left and spun the front wheel, but didn't hear anything. 65 Mustang 200 six cylinder coupe, with C4 auto trans. Disc...

    I looked through the past posts but can’t really find what I’m looking for. I’m trying to disassemble my tilt away column for repainting and cleaning. Looks like a lot of brake fluid has been spilled on it and really did a number on the bottom half of the housing. Once I started taking it...

    Hi everyone, I drive a '65 Mustang 289 with the original power steering system. As I was slowly turning the steering wheel while backing out of a parking spot yesterday, I heard a pop and my steering went stiff. I can still turn, but with a lot of effort and a lot of squealing -- the type of...
