Topic: Paint Dab On Steering Stops -

[jwc66k]

I got into a discussion with a Shelby owner today on the red paint dab used on the left hand steering stop for V-8 Mustangs including Shelbys. I maintain that the V-8 stop is the same for all 64-66 V-8 cars whether it's standard steering, power steering or disc brakes and the red paint applies to all. He maintains that the red dab is referenced on the disc brake page only and not on the standard/power steering page therefor disc only. Any words?
To throw more into the mix, the HP Mustang Book states that the right hand side should have a green dab, and both of us say we've not seen a green paint dab. Any more words?
And to complete the discussion, what was the paint dab (or dabs) used on 6 cylinder steering stops, keeping in mind that there is one style for standard steering and another for power steering.

I have seen the red daub on the LH steering stop on V8 cars, regardless of power steering or disc brakes.  Interestingly, the 6 cyl ones I have seen (they are different in shape) had both marked with an olive green paint daub.

Both of my 65 convertibles had the red daub on the LH stop, and they were both manual drum brake cars.
