@@417fox One thing I wish is that Ford didn't offer a 93 cobra body kit.Reason I think they be even more valuable if you couldn't clone them.That's how Shelby American works with the super snakes.You can't clone them.There are a lot of parts that you can not buy.

How about a Canadian foxbody? I can’t find any info on them since U.S. Ford doesn’t have access to them as far as I know. I’m talking about a 1990 red on black LX notch, manual windows/door locks/ side mirrors/ non AC/ stereo delete/ non cruise control/ 3.08 rear axle ratio/ manual transmission/arm rest delete but with rear defrost and map light. How would this compare to USA statistics? P.S. it has heavy duty battery and road abrasion protection for snow rust per Canada standards with daytime running lights. Lastly, 100% stock. Zero aftermarket upgrades and OEM condition. P.S.S. 220km/h Speedo with 6 digit mile marker and 100k kilometers on the clock! BTW great video. Learned a lot. Sub’ed!!!

As a 30 year ford employe, no tilt was because of the angle that the airbag deployes, lower position steering wheel it will hit you in the chest, upper position it would take your head off when deployed.

I have a couple for you. In the interior, with the premium sound system, the amp was under the passenger seat only in the 1993. The other years it was behind the radio under the console. And in the engine, for 1993, the head bolts were TTY (torque to yield). In all other years, they were normal bolts that can be re-used. BTW, I am the original owner of a 1993 Ford Mustang LX coupe reef blue 5.0L 5 speed with no options. No cruise, no power windows, no A/C, no power locks. It came with a regular radio and defrost. Black interior. And it is on the road.

I dont know if i missed it in the video, the 87-89 instument cluster is made different than the 90-93. Also the early aero foxes had a low fuel light, and they had the warning lights in the lower right side of the instrument bezel basicly in front of the ignition switch. The older aeros also has a fuel door pop button in the glovebox.

Great stuff! I realize that stereo changes amongst the years were plentiful. Someone else mentioned the amp under the passenger's seat on the 1993, but a couple other options stand out to me. One was the CD Player which was introduced in 1993. Also, the factory equalizer is a pretty nice option to have. I know it was available on at least the 1991 and 1992 cars. I think it also was available on an earlier year. The convertible top headliner became standard on the 1993 cars but also was on the 1992 feature cars.

Very informative and enjoyable video 417 Fox. Thank you for taking the time to create and upload this great content ! Now for my 2 cents; the small headrests in the fox are basically non functional. I ended up putting (color matching) 95 Mustang articulating headrests in my Fox for long drives. Big improvement.

Great video! You gained a new subscriber. My 89 LX was an anniversary edition made in August of 1989, and has a tiny dash emblem to prove it. 😆 I was told on a forum that mine is a "sport" edition. She has the big headrest seats with power lumbar on the driver's seat. Also came with 3.08 rear end gears, 140 mph speedo, and tilt steering. Also came with 10 hole wheels and a full size spare, which was stolen by a sleazy shop in Florida. Didn't realize it was gone until I had moved back to Texas. Enjoyed the video, will continue checking out the rest. God bless!

True story. Had a 89 model and got pulled over and was handcuffed and about to have my car searched because a rookie cop thought the map light was mounted paraphernalia and was about to search it when a must more trained officer took a look him self and realized it was a light. I was confused standing behind the car in cuff's until I heard the cop say it's a light. Subscribed. They let me go.

Great video. Wow, I can't believe how much your high school car looked like mine. In 1993 I had a 1988 GT in Scarlet Red, 5 speed with grey interior, power locks/windows and sunroof but no a/c and also had the smoked headlight and foglight covers. I wanted so bad to have pony's on mine but sadly had the turbines. Even with the 2.73 M code axle, it was the fastest car in high school :O) Irocs were really popular and I wanted something different so I bought my 5.0 and loved it. Smoked them F-bodies all the time. Drove that car through college too and it never left me stranded and the clutch was still strong when I sold it. I even drove it 2000 miles across Western Canada on a failing fuel pump.
@bobyoung1698

I'm glad you touched on the map light. I have one in my '88 GT and had never seen another. I thought I had a freak option. One thing you might have mentioned - although it's not really a "feature" - are the GT fog lights. Ford wired these incorrectly or didn't consider the load on the electrical system when installing. After 45 minutes or so, when running the fogs with the headlights, the entire lighting system shuts down. It happened to me one night on a desolate country road and freaked me out. I saw a fix for it in a Mustang magazine years ago, but it involved a lot of IP surgery, so I passed on it. With the advent of LED bulbs, the fix is now just a matter of upgrading the bulb I guess.

early 90 cars did not have the arm rest, mid year they brought it back. I have a 90GT bought in 92 did not have one. and got my arm rest from a local yard. 90 fenders are smaller than 91,92,93 wheels. this was done in part from 15 to 16" wheels as you mentioned. I think 91 went to the smaller 2 wire starter also.

Nice video. There is actually a black fuse cover on the 90-93 cars. It was not left without a cover from the factory. Many of them were lost or the tabs easily broke off so that could be why you don’t see them much. Also, not sure if it was mentioned, but the check engine and warning lights are in the instrument cluster on 90-93 vs 87-89 are on the right lower side which can be seen through the instrument cluster bezel. Another cool super rare option not seen much is the motorized seat adjuster on 90-93 driver seat only. 87-89 had a fuel door lock in the glove box and 90-93 didn’t have it.

87-92 mustang gt and lx with or without mass air had the same 225 horsepower. The horsepower did not drop until 1993 fox body mustang gt or lx. Know the 93 cobra was rated at 245 with the gt40 heads and intake. Just had to make it clear on the HP ratings. Yes all 87-92 mustang gt or lx had forged Pistons where 93 was not forged.

I'm glad you did this. I have a 90 lx 5.0 and the people that acquired it from the original owner took interior out of a 4 cylinder of a pre 90 car. So mine is all ass backwards on the interior stuff. I drive a truck so I'm not home right now but now I need to look see if the shoulder belts or the lap belt is in back. Ive never paid attention bc I never knew there was a change and with mine being all outa year wak with the interior im curious if they changed the belts also. I know the bezel is wrong year.

I have a 1988 Saleen Mustang with Mass air and I’m a bit of a geek in the engine bay changes that year. The 88 MAF cars intake tube and MAF Sensor and connector are unique to those cars as well as the emission decal on the coil cover. The wiring harness to the 02 sensors was unique as well. Mid year 1988 (April/May?), all 5.0 HO engines got a new camshaft to smooth the idle and also lost a few horsepower. They also got a new oil cap and lost the black intake plug that had been there since EFI got added in 1986. There were at least 3 different oil caps used during 1987-1993.

the oil pressure sensor changed between 89 and 90. And I think the dash gauge is different. 89's have a large diameter pressure sensor that will not work correctly in a 90. Also the 89 sensor, being as large as it is, was mounted out on an extension to move it further away from the oil filter. The 90's have a small diameter sensor and no extension.

There are 3747 1988 mustangs with the ttop option. Ford discontinued the option in 1987 so all 1988 models are built in late 1987 and since they ran out of certain parts for these cars you'll notice the doors are from convertible cars (the mirrors are different) are used on the 1988's.

I could use a fact check here, he told me 87 was the only year the convertible door would work on a T-top car due to mirror placement and lack of window framing. Do the 86 and older convertible doors not work?

I own an 89 GT in deep shadow blue and titanium grey . I've owned the car since new in 89, I've always wondered how many came with the light blue stripe on the moldings . Mine doesn't have it , never did . I've seen most with it very few without . Anyone know ?

The 1988 LX 5.0 convertibles built before October 1987 had the side mirrors mounted on the window, the ones built in October 1987 and after had them mounted on the door. My 1988 LX 5.0 convertible built in September 1987 also has the factory low coolant sensor on the overflow tank that was only available on 1988 GTs andwasn't available on 1988 LXs. So I'm thinking that was also because it was built before October 1987.

Another uncommon color you don’t see a lot of is dove grey.. or that’s at least what we always called it.. I had a friend who had a factory LX dove grey... it was such a pretty car

No Tilt wheel in 1990-93 was simply because ford did NOT have a column that tilted AT the steering wheel, like 1989 and earlier did. The airbag and forces deploying it would not allow a Tilt column, if you look at the trucks, they tilt WAY WAY back by the dash board. There was no room in a Mustang for that.

I am fairly certain if ford wanted to they could have. But just my opinion

@@417fox Nope, wouldn't pass crash test. You should call me sometime, I can tell you differences that NOBODY knows, not even FORD any more.

Stuff you missed: Reduction in horsepower from ‘88 to ‘89 was due to a milder / smoother cam, not from MAF. 90-93 had smaller headrests, knee impact pads under the steering wheel, darker black pigmented dash plastics, low fuel light relocated from the dash bezel to the instrument panel, no tweed seat fabric option, and dark blue exterior Ford oval emblems vs light blue. Essentially all the interior changes in 90-93 were to offset the cost of the new airbag….including cheaper climate control dials and bezel. I’m surprised Ford didn’t go from 4 lug wheels to 3..

I had a '93 gt in performance red. Then in 2001 Ford picked the paint back up. So I bought the 01' gt in performance red. But for some reason they were calling it competition red.

Also, its not necessarily 87-89 specific, but if you are wanting to do an aftermarket momo wheel with a nrg quick release setup like I did on my 89, its MUCH easier to do and make it work on a 87-89 than a 90-93. It doesn't look right on 90+ cars and iirc horn wiring is a bit confusing. Plus its technically illegal to remove the airbag. 89 is the best year imo! 87-92 had forged pistons, 93 had hyper pistons

87-89 had remote fuel door release in the glove box. Not sure if it was an option or standard but I know it's not there at all on 90-93 cars.

Oh sure they made a few 1989 T top Gt's, I owned one. The 140 MPH Speedometer, and dash emblem were half year intro BECAUSE the original 1965 Mustang was first sold in APRIL 1964, so the upgrades to the GT's were in rough accordance to the release of the original Mustang.
