I have a friend in the airline industry, he says they'd rather work on Boeings than any other aircraft because of its design, he hates the whole Airbus line..
This is a great conversation as I'm about to Fly from Florida to Laguna Seca and back by Sunday morning... :)
I have so much material to work with here, but I'll let it go.... apparently there is third whistleblower, so we'll see how it goes. bottom line is, there used to be an old term "If it ain't Boeing, I ain't going" that carried over from the legendary B17s and the now 50 year old B52s still in...
Eibach is pretty good about things, their measurements are prolly legit, and FWIW that's also what the Ford Racing springs are which might actually be made by Eibach.
This is based on the premise that HOT not COLD, is the important pressure, no one really cares what your starting psi is, because it's not the race pressure. Hot pressures ALWAYS dictate cold.. carve that into your forehead.
At 7AM you start your practice day, the ambient/track temp is 70/70 ...
I think originally from the factory it was a different durometer, but they are hard to come by. I just use the stock Gt one in my track car, leave the bushings stock, but you can use urethane in the lower links, FR used urethane.
If you haven't started on it, I would go find a Ford Performance handling package and just go with that. The parts are designed to work together and Ford takes the guess work out of it.
In PWC we ran the non adjustable Ford Performance lower trailing arms, the Gt500 upper link is the preferred one, but a standard Gt one will work fine.
Again, go to Rob's garage and look around, the complete step by step instructions are there., including pics anbd details, a burned fuse box is very common on those cars
