Hi guys, I'm still trying to figure out which tires to buy, but I'm wondering if anyone has the original front end alignment specs?? The car has always driven straight but worn the front tires hard on the inside. Mr. Tire says they will do a front end alignment check with tire...

Hi guys, I looking for some new tires. I have always run the factory size 245/45/17. I really don't want to go to the 275 on the rear. I like being able to rotate tires. The inside of the fronts wear out the fastest. I do want a "full" tread tire. I sometimes get caught in a rain...

Hi guys, Due to the weight of the supercharger, it has brought my front end down a little (which is ok to me) but what I don't like is the increased gap between the rear tires and wheel wells. I wanted to just replace the rear springs only. A buddy of mine has rear springs from V8 fox...

Hi guys, I'm thinking about some lowering springs for the Cobra and wondered what is the spring rates for the front and back coils? I didn't see it in the search but I'll bet someone here knows 'em :beer:

Well, it did take me 16 years to realize it but Ford only supplied 3 of the four rivets on each side of the Cobra. I filled the hole with some silicon to prevent water from getting in the door and repainted the trim piece that sits above the rivets.:rolling:

Hi guys, Next week I'm heading out to Los Angeles for business and would like to work in some pleasure during the night.:rockon: Three of us are staying in downtown LA. Would you recommend some places to go for some night life? We're only there two nights but want to make the most of...

Hi guys, I still have the OEM rear brakes on the Cobra. The have a squeake upon engagement and I took them apart and cleaned them up. Added new grease to the slide pins. I cannot get rid of the squeak upon engagement while driving. If I'm stopped there is not squeak. It seems to be when...

Hi guys, I'm looking for some help with a cat-back exhaust selection. 1. My current set-up (in sig) sounds very mild (no balls) to me. I'm looking for something that will sound like it has some balls at idle and when I get on it, but not real loud cruising around town, oh and no drone...

Hi guys, Where is the best place to get the passenger side door trim piece?:shrug: Are they the same as a regular Mustang? If yes, what year range is good? Thanks, Neil:burnout:

Hello, Last weekend the Champ Car Series was in Cleveland. As part of the events, I drag raced (like Pinks, but not for pink slips) for fun on the track along with ~50 others. This concluded at midnight. While driving home, some road debris shot up and scraped my pass. side door below the...

Hi guys, Are there any low cost wheels available that could be used on a '93 Cobra that would fit a slick? I was wondering about the old mustang 10 hole wheels. They seem cheap and easy to come by. Any one know if they or any others would fit?

What are you getting your wife for Mothers Day? Ok, obviously this only applies to the ones with children. I really don't know what to get her. Flowers = too routine, no points. Candy = She doesn't really like or need, no points. Dinner = too routine, no points. I was thinking about...

Hello all, I'm finishing up my clutch installation and noticed a small amout of residual trans fluid on the undercarage. It appears to have leaked out of the rear trans yoke seal. I read up what I could find and have a few questions. 1. Does this seal have a weep hole? I'm wondering if...

Hello all, I was wondering how many of you have installed upper and lower torque box reinforcement kits. I think this is one of the next things I'm going to do. Like the weld in subframe connectors, I'd rather have them than let the Cobra twist up with difficult to repair damage. Please...

Hi all, I was in the process of replacing the 2 heater core hoses. While reading up on this, I discovered numerous threads about the heater core going bad. The lack of a restrictor seemed to be a common cause. I checked my core tubes, old hoses and new Ford hoses and no restrictor in any...

My original touch up paint "Performance Red" is very thick and gooey. Can I use some paint thinner to bring it back to original texture?:shrug: It does match very well, just too thick to use now.

Well, after taking good care of my beloved '93, the dark side struck yesterday. I went into the local CVS and while leaving one of two "boys from the hood" threw a large rock and smashed my windshield. :bash: The local Ford dealer says Ford no longer offers OEM replacement. I just want a...

I have a vibrant red clearcoat car (ES code). The engine compartment color looks a little darker (and non-clearcoat I believe). Does anyone know the color and/or code of the engine compartment paint? I'd like to do a little touch-up.

I am going to do another brake flush. I realize everything says to use Dot 3 which I have used in the past. I have also read that Dot 4 is a good upgrade if you completely get the Dot 3 out. Factory brakes. Which do you recommend? Also, sometimes when I use the brake, after I let off...

I'll be reinstalling the radiator shortly and wanted to know if there are any recommended coolants to use or ones to avoid. Is standard Prestone fine with distilled water? Also, what ratio (50/50?) is good? The car is not driven in the winter but is stored in an unheated garage. :burnout:

I'm starting the installation of a 9 psi Powerdyne supercharger and have a few questions. This is a new game for me but I'm up for the challenge. :rockon: Sparkplugs: I've been reading positive comments on Autolite AR764 plugs, but I am not sure these were used with the 5.0 L Cobra...
