    Intermediate Exhaust Pipe

    This has long-ceased to be funny. Mustangs Unlimited sent me an intermediate exhaust pipe for a '71 with a DUAL exhaust---too long.  Will not fit. Today I got one from CJ Pony parts.   Once again they insisted on sending one for a DUAL exhaust. It came from Pennsylvania.  I suppose they are...

    Intermediate Exhaust Pipe

    I think you are right.  I think maybe MU sent me the pipe for a dual exhaust.;  From the pix, it looks like maybe they are just a bit longer than the single intermediate pipe. TNX, Mate Roy

    Intermediate Exhaust Pipe

    I got the p/n wrong.  It is a 44369.  I inquired to NPD and theirs is about same length 37 & 3/4".  TOO LONG !!!!! All the parts suppliers insist this is the right intermediate exhaust pipe.  NEGATIVE !!! I feel very frustrated but I am not going to let this get the better of me.

    Intermediate Exhaust Pipe

    The present intermediate pipe is about 35 inches long  (89 cm).  That is too long and it hangs really low.   Something is wrong and I highly suspect I have the wrong pipe. Does anyone know how long this thing should be?

    1973 Mustang 351 Cleveland 2V Single exhaust Hi folksl        I am restoring my '73 and bought an exhaust Pipe (p/n 4469) but it hangs way too low and when I tried to install the silencer I found out that it is also too long. Does anyone know what the actual length of the Intermediate Pipe...

    front seat uphostery

    Hi All;     The front seats of my old Tang are a total write-off. I have been looking for some blue upholstery that is original design but found none. Any ideas where I could find some of the original pattern? Roy

    Battery Size

    1973 Mustang 351 Cleveland 2bb, Code H Hi all     My old Tang is running really good.  Still got a few issues but now it is time for her to get her own battery (not robbed from the Ute). The bat compartment I think is the size for a 27F. Trying to keep the old girl original. What would you...

    Fender Apron R&R

    Hi Folks; The RH (pax side) Fender Apron has had 46 years of battery acid damage.  You can imagine how bad it is. Thankfully CJ Pony parts has a replacement apron. Now then what is the best procedure to remove it?  I am sure I must remove the exterior fender but how many spot welds am I going...

    Battery Size

    1973 Mustang 351 Cleveland 2V Hi All;     I need a new Battery for my old 'Tang.  The tray appears to be the size of a 27F bat. I've been looking around town for an exact fit but it appears technology has marched on and those size bats a a bit rare and for specialty use. I would like to...

    Muffler hangs low

    Now the exhaust pipe will not fit on because the silencer is too far aft and the exhaust has to loop over the axle. I really need to get this sorted-out. I could have rented it out several times this summer to Movies being made in Atlanta. This exhaust thing is all that is standing between me...

    Exhaust system hangs low

    I finally forced the muffler into position and secured it. Now the tail pipe won't fit because the muffle is too far aft and the pipe has to loop over the axle. The only thing I can think of is I have the wrong exhaust pipe connected to the "Y" pipe, but I was assured it was the right one...

    Exhaust system hangs low

    '73 Mustang 351 Cleveland 2V single exhaust. Jut got back in the country and back to same old problem.  The Exhaust system is brand new but hangs very low.  I can push it up into position but it takes about 45lbs to get it there and it i definitely in a bind.      I've tried to adjust "Y"...

    Petrol Guage

    Thanks.   As old as this old Tang is I am surprised the pulse mechanism still works.  This is a relatively new float (installed August 2018) but it sounds like what the Prob is. TNX

    Petrol Guage

    1973 Mustang Code H I went out for a short jaunt tonight and noticed the fuel gauge read very slightly above peg-low.  Stopped and got petrol and there was no measurable change in gauge reading.  When I got home I checked voltage to the fuel tank sending unit.  It was PULSING !  About 1.5 Hz...

    Muffler hangs low

    As you can see, there is only one way the mid pipe can go on because of the upturn at the "Y" pipe.

    Muffler hangs low

    I got the entire exhaust system from Mustangs Unlimited.  They are sure it is the right parts. However something is very wrong.

    Muffler hangs low

    The Silencer is loose. I can easily rotate it but that is not the problem. It is not even close to fitting in. There is something else wrong.

    Muffler hangs low

    Hi All;    I installed the "Y" pipe, exhaust pipe, muffler. For some reason the muffler hangs very low (at least 5 inches). Tonight I removed the e3xhaust and tried to turn it to make things fit but it didn't work The "Y" pipe has very little clearance to go any further up and the exhaust...
