Hello all,
My name is Chris and i just bought a '65 stang with a 289 bolted to a 3-speed.

Just wanted to drop in and say howdy. Also, i broke a u-joint the other day. I have never replaced one before. What is involved in putting one in?

 

Howdy Chris! Welcome aboard.

Good lookin' coupe you have there. U-joint replacement is a piece of cake. I'd suggest you pick up a manual that will cover that and tons of other handy stuff. The Ford shop manual (while expensive) would be a great investment. That said, I haven't forked over the dough for it. :P I've gotten by the hard way: a couple crappy haynes/chiltons manuals, and more than a decade of trial and error.

 

hey welcome to the boards always glad to have more ppl join especially when they post(there are over 1000 members who have never posted)

 

That is a great looking coupe . But I am a little biased toward coupes .

Ronnie......

 

Which joint? You mean the rear or front? It's an easy swap, just want to know which end we are working on.

 

Welcome!

Got that U-joint changed out yet?

 

Nice ride

Love them stripes

 

pull up a chair and have fun!
