Thanks again for your videos. Took me about an hour to do both shocks and apply a fresh coating to the wheel wells. Hardest part was fitting my fingers to thread the rear nut, washer, lock washer and bushing.
Awesome, it's always great to hear that people are able to pull some value from my videos. :)
I really enjoy being inside the car with you and seeing all the little details. Thanks for sharing.
More to come!
I watched another video where the guy took the entire assembly apart on top of the shock tower. Your way looks much easier.
Yeah, there’s lots of ways to do these things, we stick with what works. 😀
@@AndyKruseChannel work smarter, not harder. Lol
Didn’t work out for me to leave the top brackets on. I had to remove them otherwise I couldn’t pull out the shocks(Koni). Maybe there are some slight differences between top brackets.
Thank you
You're welcome
I installed these exact shocks in my car a couple weeks back. Interestingly, they weren't long enough to install without compressing the suspension somewhat--I initially thought they were too short. Putting a jack under the LCA to push them up a bit did the trick.
We probably installed them at the same time, I did these a few weeks ago, uploaded the video so I can maintain the 1 video per week schedule. :)
Great video, any shots of “putting the jack under the control arm” for the newbies?
That's not a preferred location of mine for supporting the car. :)
I have a question!!!!! It does not have anything to do with the shocks. My 2 sons have a 1965 and 1966 mustang. We bought them forever sharp steering wheel. I didn’t know I needed and adapter. What exactly do I have to buy to install the steering wheel?? I noticed you have one that is almost exactly the same. Thank you! For you help!
I'm not familiar with a "forever sharp steering wheel". If the steering you you purchased looks like mine, then contact CJ Pony Parts about getting a hub because that's where I got mine. :)
I always get kinda nervous messing with suspension, I just heard too many horror stories lol
I can see that, but thankfully these are super easy to change.
