Falcon Progress

I got the new front and rear springs installed in the Falcon, and I also fixed a fuel gauges that hasn't worked in some time. The Falcon stance is definitely nose up but it looks a lot like how it would have looked new. As for the fuel gauge,  it uses a voltage reducer that knocks the 12 volts down to 5, and after some checking I determined that the reducer was not reducing. After trying two new voltage reducers I found neither one was working, so my client shipped a good used one from his stash. It worked like a charm!

It used to drag the exhaust coming into the driveway. I think we've got that taken care of!

Along with the new/used voltage reducer I also added a big 8 gauge ground strap from the gauge panel to the dash. You can never have enough grounds.

Happiness is a half tank of gas, and knowing you have it!
