    Jaguar XJ6 IFS - A-body swap...

    OK guys and gals.... Please put down the pitchforks and torches! :protest: Before I get started I must mention, I have now done several "updated" front suspension swaps and lots of fabrication like this, so this thought is not without some experience backing it. :) SO, I am right in the...

    Sub-frame connectors... Please build them correctly!

    So, I can help but notice all of the sub-frame connectors that many people build, and do next to nothing for the rigidity of the car. I have noticed the common thing to do is to weld some form of tube from the front sub-frame to the rear sub-frame with no attachment to the floor pan itself...

    Sub Frame connector conundrum

    Flip Top Gas Cap Adapter----Feedback thread and link

    Hey FABO Guys and Gals. In the midst of selling many of my adapters I realized nobody is able to leave me feedback regarding the adapter I have made and sold many of. This is most likely becasue the thread URL isnt a "sale" thread so it is not accepted as a valid URL when trying to leave...

    8.8 rear in my A-body. I cant be the first!

    Ok, so my options have led me to the 8.8 Ferd rear diff. The gear choices are good, they can be found with disc brakes, and limited slip, fairly commonly. The width is 60" flange to flange so my track changes but I planned on runnig a bigger "Bullit" style rim anyhow. This swap also bumps me...

    Door Alignment

    Is it just my car, or do all the A-bodies seem to have an issue with the bottom - rear part of the door sticking out too far? Its almost like the door is in too far at the top and out too far at the bottom. I don't want to space the top out, because it will also move the window frame out. That...

    BAD A$$!!!! Vintage MOPAR Plug wires

    Hey guys. Here is the deal with these. I got them from a friend who got them from his "barn find" 72 Ford truck. The truck sat for about 4 years after the owner wasnt able to drive it any more.
