OK guys, I have some questions and I hope you can tell me and guide me. With the loss of my mechanic, I started looking and found someone very low cost and able to do the work inexpensively. The next car to finish and paint is the Pinto. So I want to replace a lot of stuff, I don't care if it needs it or not - I want this riding like new. So, in an effort to not sound stupid I need the names of the parts and where to get them. This is my attempt, please don't laugh, the mechanic told me, but I don't recall the name. The mirrors are the same on my Pinto as the Mustang Ghia BTW.
Rack and Pinion, non power steering.
I thought these were the same as a Mustang II, but when I search ebay I don't see any. I got two for the Mustangs, nothing can be found for this. Is it a Rack and Pinion, or do I need to search for something else. The rack and pinion search only brought up boots. Is this the same as the 1974 Mustang one by any chance?
The rubber.
These are all over, they seem OK, but I want to replace them. I'm hoping for a tighter ride and less rattle. The sway bar, is that correct in front? Can someone tell me what is available and where I can find it? I would like all bushings and ball joints replaced under there. Again, want it tight.
Thanks, and thanks for not laughing at me...
