Wanting to see what it would take to put a hydraulic parking brake setup for my foxbody. Currently have front and rear disc brakes. Ive researched online and it all pertains to newer stangs or imports. Thanks guys

should be basically the same as installing one on a newer mustang. I assume your rear disc brakes are something like an sn95 5 lug swap?

you aint gona do nothing, nada nothing lol, just hoping for some answers lol. your lucky day, 5/8 master for disc brakes, 3/4 for drums. get the asd an quit being a cheap ass. theres a chart on there that explains alot, and there the best hands down for many reason. I sell the dual caliper set up, or go in line which well save a bunch, plus your just starting so the inline well be fine. again use asd stuff.
and brace the shit out of what ever your gona mount it too cause things start flexing.

not trying to be cheap but i like to do a lot of research first hand prior to spending the $$$, but yeah not in a rush to make a purchase but this is the site where a few of my import buddys reffered me to http://www.partsshopmax.com/page.php?4

not interested in these import items tho. whats the link to the asd items your speaking of

there ain't no drifter guys on this site at all. asd is the name of the company. you cant miss them, e brakes is there main bread an butter. and that company you mentioned is pdm, not nearly as good as a asd set up.

now i have another question, will the brake caliper have retracting issues since the ford sn95 rear disc are a screw style piston???

no, it works exactly like a reg master cylinder, just hand held. there is two to choose from, in line or separate system. one goes in line of the reg rear brake line, hence in line, very easy to install, cost effective, but minor set backs with experienced driving, when trying to use both brakes simultaneously, the separate system is the pro stuff that has no effect from one system to to the other, cost more, more labor involved.

your gonna have to brace the tunnel or what ever you choose to mount the hand held too.
