Foxbody Heater Core Replacement Turns Into an Adventure
I started this video as a simple heater core replacement until I decided to dig a little bit and found rust. Since I was in it I decided to go ahead and do some interior refreshment as well. I guess I can no longer call this the "free" foxbody

TDI Swap Ford Courier: Turbo & Fuel System Complete!
Переглядів 912 місяці тому
Did some modifications on a brand new Holset turbo to get it to fit our 1974 Ford Courier and fit for the intercooler setup. Fuel system was a piece of cake to get knocked out once I found out the appropriate size for fittings. I might upgrade to a lift pump at some point but we'll keep that for "version 2". I keep putting off the final wiring but it's come to that point. So that's really the n...

Exciting Progress: Ford Courier TDI Swap Journey
Переглядів 1546 місяців тому
Please like, subscribe, comment and share! Got started on the wiring for the Courier and found some issues that needed to get resolved, mainly with the alternator. Ended up doing some frame notching, working on the oil system and getting some other odds and ends knocked out. Should have most of the wiring, if not all done on the next video. Hopefully we can start making some noise pretty soon. ...

Attempting to Fix a Busted 4th Gen Honda Prelude (Part 1)

Please like, subscribe, comment and share! Got this busted 4th gen Prelude from a guy that I bought a "lot" of cars for $7,500. He was under the impression that it only needed a headgasket. Turns out it needed a lot more than that. Though we didn't get it running in this particular episode, we made a lot of improvement. I'm strongly considering just getting a new wiring harness, but we'll see. ...

Shitbox problems
Shittttt mane that’s solid enough for me throw the carpet nd seats back in that mf let’s rip
Hahaha they’re cut out now. About to weld in some new pans in a couple days
It's easier using a die grinder
Not much of a fox body enthusiast, but I really like the Courier and Prelude builds, subscribed.
Thanks for following!! I'll have some good vids of the Courier up soon
Love seeing the progress on this and I applaud your dedication. Your killin it, keep it up!
Thanks a lot! Should have more content soon!!
Sick AF
You can actually see or something has hit the window you can actually see where something has hit the window left side middle where all the glasses shattering out from maybe a baseball something hit it and shattered it. Whatever it is is somewhat round if you have outside security cameras I would check and see if maybe a neighbor's kid hit your window with a baseball or a softball or a golf ball even it doesn't mean that it has to leave a mark on the window it just has to hit it hard enough to shatter it
So you are saying that heat broke your window? I live in the desert in Southern California, our average is 112 to 118 degrees and we have never seen a window crack because of heat even on the vehicles we have that are from the 50s still have the stock windows in it that have been in the desert this whole time, did you think maybe something broke inside your car and popped up and cracked the window?
Hope you won't put those ugly looking wagon wheels and thin tires on this truck along with lowering it to the ground. It's perfect the way it is.
It’s doable, Ive done mine with leaving everything in, just drained my coolant from the coolant hose that links up to the radiator. Slowly pop out that coolant line to the turbo and screw on the new fitting back on & pop your coolant line back on. Flat screw driver was my best friend trying to line back up the coolant line to the turbo & fitting. Measure the coolant that came out & Fill it back up with what was drained.
Let's goooo
Yessir!
Do you know a way to get codes from the ECU. Maybe that can point you in the right direction. remember it can also be a computer problem. Good luck. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Yeah I’ve pulled codes but nothing stored. I have a replacement ecu I’m planning on plugging in when I get some time
Completely normal for the t5 to scrape going into reverse. They don't have reverse synchros. Just shift into any other gear prior to going to reverse and it should disappear. Just came across your channel and subscribed. Good stuff!
Hey thanks for subbing! Yeah it pops out of gear in second and grinds going into third as well. I want to do a rebuild on it but low on the priority list at the moment
0 compression is almost always a valve issue, some issue with the cam or a valve getting stuck. nice video
Thank you! Yeah I couldn’t believe it when I saw the damage! Halfway thinking about taking the entire harness out and rebuilding.
A Prelude Si! Strange seeing one without the rear spoiler.
It’s definitely a cool car! Can’t wait to get it running

Slowly but surely!

Any brake booster or master cylinder upgrades planned?
I just got the drum brakes a few days ago so once I get those installed and get everything bled I’ll evaluate if I need anything bigger/better. Good thing is I have plenty of room so shouldn’t be a huge issue if I need to upgrade to something bigger
Is it possible to cut the steel lines from block to turbo. Use different fittings at both sides to accommodate a flexible line with flared fittings? I guess the only thing is to figure out what line can withstand the high temps. There must be an easier way. I'm getting ready to tackle my truck.
AN lines would be an option
Yeeeeee the courier!!!!
It’s been a project for sure!
Wish I could have gotten a little truck like this when I was living down in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Love little 4 cylinder trucks and cars. What more would ya need?
That's a $3000-$5000 job at Ford. That's why you see so many people trying to fix it themselves.
Definitely not the easiest job but not terrible with the right tools
Can you flip the manifold?
I can but the problem with this manifold is the turbo and manifold are one piece so can’t orientate the turbo forward. Future state I’ll probably get a BEW manifold and a different turbo setup. But right now trying to be very budget conscious
Gotcha. I would definitely get an aftermarket manifold for her. Build a little more hp
Thanks for the help. Much appreciated.
Any time!
Projects like this are basically the goals of my channel. I just have other work that I need to get done before I can get to some projects like this But I have a 71 challenger I’m going to do a seriously lengthy restoration! Glad to have found your channel
Nice! I’ll keep an eye out on your channel. Excited to see the resto!
Btw I’m so jealous of that barn. Or shop. Where ever your working I need that in my life
Home shop in my backyard! We did pretty good in selling our old house and managed to get my dream shop!
Appreciate all the great info!
You’re welcome! Thanks for the feedback
I'm doing '94 sn95 spindles conversion on my '84 and I can't seem to find a definitive answer on what inner and outer tie rod ends to use. Any help is appreciated. I'm building the car for drag racing, if that makes any difference. I didn't watch the whole video, maybe you answered my question already. I'm seeing people saying that the fox tie rods are too short, not allowing enough thread engagement of the outer tie rod end.
Hey! I just went on rock auto to confirm and you have the exact same inner and outer that I have on my foxbody. I was able to use the factory foxbody inner and outer tie rods without issue. Personally, if you’re making a drag car, I’d get a bumpsteer kit and go from there. My turbo fox uses a foxbody length flaming river manual rack and a bumpsteer kit on sn95 (new edge) spindles. Hope this helps
@88fox Thanks! That's exactly what I needed.
The shocks you got where they “for” the sn95? Also what’s the link for the e-break cables wanna make sure I’m getting the right ones 😅
Yes I ordered sn95 rear shock so they would fit appropriately in the shock bracket. You can easily modify the bracket as well as the front spindle to put in foxbody stuff if you have it available. But I took the easy route. www.classicindustries.com/product/all-years/ford/mustang/parts/90L007.html for the e brake cable. They also have on LMR for twice the price
@@88fox thank you 🫡🫡 ima just purchase the sn95 to make it faster lol
I couldn’t get to the bottom nut on the exhaust. It’s such a tight squeeze
Did you get the 3/4 length socket set I recommended? I want to say they were $20 from harbor freight. I’ve actually been using the set for almost everything recently.
For couriers would guide between eighthis were garbage when they built them. Why are you messing with that trash
Not sure what you’re saying
Enjoying the fox love. Also enjoy the in depth videos.
Appreciate you!
Would this be the same as a 1994-95 Thunderbird?
Unfortunately I’m not sure. I would imagine similar. Platforms should be roughly the same
Thunderbird controller arms are wider, they use the same control arms as svo fox body mustangs that have a wider track with
Will your oil pressure light come on ?
This was a coolant leak on the turbo. The oil feed and drain were not leaking
Sweet
Thanks man i been told that wouldn't work time and time again the 96-04 swap i also got a v6 parts car for 200 bucks a 2001 i want to swap the brakes and rear-end over to my 87 mustang
It works just fine. The only thing I didn’t really capture in the video is the brake lines. Swap the old foxbody lines, cut and flare the lines so that they fit the caliper brake lines. The 2001 rear end will be a total 1.5 inches wider so if you’re wanting really flush wheels might have to do some fender rolling etc.
Name of the show?
Seriously?
Married... with Children
@@somebb I’m sorry 🙈 i remember bits and pieces of the show but i couldn’t remember the name of it.
@@AlexHernandez-lb7pg lol im just being dramatic. I forgot for a moment too
Just saw this episode 😂
One of my dream cars lol they so foxy
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
just picked up a notch over to wrench on over on my channel. can only hope its this rowdy some day. sick car dude
Why would you buy a 4cyclinder v8s is were its at
I got this car for free. It was headed to the junkyard
I think you have to switch the brake booster to a cobra brake booster. To stop alittle better. The 4cylider booster don't have the correct vacuum or pressure for those disc brake.
@kennyrodriguez8328 my v6 booster sprung a leak, tossed in my 4 cyl and it's barely a difference. I have new edge gt front and back brakes. He'll be fine
@@travisy7861 if I decided to upgrade from here I’d probably go with a hydroboost setup but this is just a daily driver for now. It stops on a dime without issues!
Where's the courier?
Still have it. Planning on getting back into the swing of working on it soon
I got the same problem
That's badass
How about turning the Volkswagen bug into a new style Baja bug? I think you could make it pretty awesome.
Unfortunately the bug was just good for parts because it didn’t have a title and was damaged in the rear. I think you have a cool idea though. I would like to get my hands on a Karman Ghia at some point
@88fox I've been wanting to turn a Karman Gia into a Baja bug sort of thing for years, I just never found that I wouldn't feel guilty for doing that, and a convertible bug also.
@@larryoren5928 Baja tdi ghia would be absolutely legit. But you would need a second ghia that’s a full restoration to complement it
@@88fox I think it would be something that viewers would love to see, and maybe ste a new trend. I know I'd love to see it. It would be one of a kind. 😊
Hahah thought that truck and trailer looked familiar
Yes sir!
