has anyone put one of these on a fox that has disc rear brakes? i can hear a leak from my booster and my peddle is hitting the floor...ive heard that its a direct fit its just a bigger booster and then i read that it take some modding to fit?

What year is your car? You won't need to mod anything if it's a 1990 or later model.

U shouldnt have to mod anything BUT alot of posts I've seen say it's a bit easier to make one of the holes a little wider to make it easier to install. Also some posts say you need to mod part of the wheel well with a BFH for clearance.

Make sure it's the correct one... I heard of places sending a stock GT on over a 93 Cobra booster. Physically the Cobra booster is much larger.

my big buddy Mo, always needing help LOL.

i ordered one up from rockauto when i did my 5-lug setup. the first one they sent was a used and rusted one [Eek!] . i called them and they quickly shipped me another unit. it is physically larger than a stock fox. i had to elongate a couple of the holes to bolt it back up. it's not hard at all. it's more a PITA to do when you have to reach under the dash. you do have to do a core exchange with rock auto. they provide you a return label.
