    All the information I have shows the same fittings for the 79-2004 Mustang racks. Maximum Motorsports offers a pair of AN conversion fittings for the racks and again states 79-2004.

    Hard to be sure from the picture, but the fittings appear to be the same to me in regards to thread size, pitch and the teflon O Rings. The only difference I see is the extended tip on the 86 hose. That could be nothing more than a manufacturer difference. Have you tried to install the 86 line on the 2001 rack. I assume that is what you are attempting since the PS pump fitting side may be different between the two racks?

    I have '03 Cobra hydroboost setup on my '79 rack.
    On my setup, that square end goes to the P/S pump, not to the rack.
    Both rack fittings have round steel tubing.

    Thanks for input Trey, I slid the rack forward and pushed the fitting down over the o ring and the line went on. I did have to remove the low pressure line to do this so need to replace the teflon seal on it.
    Massacre ..the square end came with the rack as the supplier just cut it off to remove the rack.
