    Default SN95 Brake swap and park brake cable questions. Yes I read the sticky thread

    Ok guys. Here is what I am doing

    1981 mustang swapped to 302
    Brake booster is a 87 GT booster
    Master cyl is a 93 SVT Cobra with the swap master cyl hard lines to 1981 proportioning Valve. Adj brake valve
    Front 99 PBR calipers
    front 95 SN spindles and sn95 ball joints

    Rear 1998 SN95 rear diff and brakes.
    94 Rear soft brake lines from calipers.
    79-93 disc brake swap park brake cables

    So my question is do you guys know the size and thread of the soft lines to hard lines fitting is? Hard lines from the splitter on the diff to the caliper

    Also on the park brake set up. I notice that there seems to be a bracket that is missing buy the park brake equalizer. Do I need to get that from a later foxbody?

    Thanks guys.

    You can most likely find most of what you need on this page https://www.maximummotorsports.com/1...tang-C469.aspx as well as some good information.

    Depending on the E brake cable you are using, you might find this part to be helpful https://lmr.com/item/LRS-2603BRKT/87...-cable-bracket I won't say its a necessity, but again depending on the type of E brake cable it can help to align everything and make them work better.

    I don't recall the splitter hard line fittings off the top of my head. I believe they are stand 1/4 or 5/16, but I have messed with them in awhile to verify. Hope that helps!

    A couple of things, First if you are trying to use the OEM axle hard lines for the rear brakes, you are going to have to make modifications to your rear hardline on the body of the Mustang. The Hardline on the early 4Eyes is on the wrong side due to being single exhaust. The line was moved over to the driver side when Ford started installing the dual exhaust set up in 1985 and 1986. You can either buy a complete new hard line from a company such a Classic Tube or a kit from LMR such as this. https://lmr.com/item/LRS-2073DISC/mu...kit-79-93-disc
    Most likely you only need the body hardline which is in this kit https://lmr.com/item/LRS-MU1021B/mus...ate-line-87-93 I would link to the hardline itself, but Classic Tube's website is having issues and I can't right now. You should have the connection at the passenger hood hinge that allows you to disconnect the rear hardline and swap out with the later model line that will put the rear connection on the driver side of the rear axle and allow you to use the rest of the lines you have to connect with. This is the final part of the puzzle that will make everything much easier to connect and works with the later model hardline mentioned above. https://lmr.com/item/LRS-2073BRKT/mu...-bracket-86-93 Hopefully this helps. Good Luck!

    So I found out that there are two brake hoses for the rear caliper. One is the 1/4" sae and the other is 7/16" sae. I ordered the other brake hoses.
