    If you want to run thicker tape that is that sticky I’d put down a row of painters tape then stick your tape over it so you don’t risk paint damage

    I have a Flaming River manual rack in mine, I love it. Steers great, great feel, a few extra hp, a good chunk of weight off the nose of the car, shorter belt, no more leaks, no more crappy ps noises,cleans up the look of the engine bay alot....

    Just watched the new video while cruising up to Edmonton! Man I can't believe that you and Chris from TIP are still in the Stone Age times and using hand riveters!! Talk about dangerous to paint like you have mentioned. You certainly need to invest in an air riveter for pulling rivets and nut Certs mechanically. There is maybe 1/5 of a kick back on the air unit in comparison to a hand riveter. The amount of strength required to pull a rivet by hand is a direct reflection the amount of kickback you get from that rivet when it pops, which makes them dangerous. Also, as well as the clamping force with the air unit is roughly 3 times stronger than what you are able to pull by hand. I got this info from Arctic cat when it came to doing warranty work for replacing bent tunnels. They have come down drastically and Price in the last couple years. A good one is less than a couple bills now.

      @@KASLCustoms useless little titbit of information here. In the aviation world, upon inspection, which is quite often , any of rivets on any sheet metal of anything that goes in the air will fail every single time. If the exterior panels on a Cessna were not popped with an air riveter, they claim that enough air gets underneath the joining seams that that thing will delaminate all the panels faster than they were applied. That would be pretty scary to have happen at elevation.

    Wow!! That's my car. Freaking doors!! How come you're not installing those trick sve door handles? And those rivets? I don't remember seeing that on lmr video on changing to the new handles. And last but certainly not least, the damn window molding. Holly crap! I got so much of the black adhesive on the car and the old molding that I got that crap everywhere trying to clean it up. Lmr has a back order on that molding, though. Well, I'm looking forward to the rest of the improvements. 😊

      I find that the suppliers here in canada for the foxbody equipment is expensive/up priced and shipping is extremely overpriced- ordered a few times from "themustangshop" and had some qoutes done, however LMR and the other american suppliers. I find have great warranty/refund processes. even for being out of the country as compared to the one i have used here. i believe the shop is in alberta. im out here in ontario.. hope this helps!
