Will the brakes from a 1994 Mustang GT fit easily on a FFR?
I saw a system on Ebay recently. I believe they are 5-lug and have rear discs.
I will be using a 3-link rear end in my build.
Thanks.

A formal Poll on this subject would be GREAT... But, there are dozens of combinations.....

BUT, I have std mustang front brakes, Turbo coupe rear disc/calipers.

Porterfield R4S all the way around.

Cut Pedal.

No booster,

Cobra MC with 7/8 bore.

WAY TOO MUCH pedal pressure and very weak rear brakes.

I see that Wilwood now offers an interesting rear disc brake kit for the solid axle folks. The new kit uses the stock drum brakes on your 8.8 diff as parking brakes, and a new rotor/caliper package as your primary stoppers. Pretty cool. Go to
www.wilwood.com look on the first page for the link.
