I need to replace the rear axle bearings on my 9" and I see that there are a couple of sizes/styles of bearings and seals out there. What am I looking for on my 73 so I can make sure I've got the right parts ordered ahead of time? Thanks!!

I just had to come back and say that as silly as this sounds, putting the Vibra Tite vc-3 on the idle screw is one of the best things I've done to that carb. After quite a bit of driving, my idle stays right were it needs to be, and the throttle response is always exactly where I expect it to be...

In my opinion, the body and the VIN are worth that.

I would think so. It did very well.

3rd one. Good money for a vert. $32k https://www.mecum.com/lots/1115127/1972-ford-mustang-convertible/?aa_id=570158-0

Second one. The build isn't my cup of tea, but it went for a very respectable $55k. https://www.mecum.com/lots/1112760/1971-ford-mach-1-custom-fastback/?aa_id=561901-0

The Vibra Tite vc-3 stuff worked great. After it was "dry" I reset the screw to the proper spot, got the idle exactly where I wanted it. Then gave the throttle about 15 or 20 quick hits with my thumb letting it slap back on the screw each time and the idle never even moved 10rpm off my setting...

I like this. I'll stretch the spring, but will probably add this also. Love aviation approved stuff. Always works great.

That's interesting considering we're both running the QF735.

Jam nut is a good idea. Spring is there. Just not creating enough pressure to keep the screw from backing out.

My curb idle screw keeps backing off when driving. Aside from lower than optimal idle, it also gets my adjustment to my acc pump linkage out of whack. I'm thinking of putting a drop of the non-permanent Locktite on the screw once I get it reset, but before I do I was wondering if anyone else had...

I had good luck on eBay when I neded a set. Wow. These are not cheap...

Hi Fabrice. Thanks! They are aluminum. Cut and routed on a CNC. 1/8" thick to match thickness of original emblems. Same overall height and width also.

I ended up coloring these as well, and now really love them.

What's it drop to when put in gear? I'd be curious to know your base timing also since it's a new to you car, but you need to get that rpm down to about 800 first.
