    TC rear disc noise

    First make sure the caliper is centered when installed on the rotor in the middle of the slides. you know it how it slides back and forth, make sure that is centered. If not, you may have to shim your anchor brackets. second you could have a warped brake rotor. third, the ID of the...

    SN95 spindles on a fox, is this required or bs?

    You should not have done that. Baer modifies the stock spindle, thus you might as well run the lincoln rotors on the stock spindles if you were after wheel selection. You can still convert to the SN95 parts but it is more $$$

    What else can cause rotors to keep warping??

    Warping rotors is a weak point in the fox brakes from 79-93. The rotors share the heat of the bearings, thus have problems warping. I have heard you get what you pay for in the rotors, meaning higher quality and price units last longer. Also as suggested the torque sequence needs to be equal...

    5.0 resto 5 lug conversion question

    No you dont gain wheel selection. The lincoln rotors/ranger axles and drums limit your wheel selection. Same thing you are looking at on the 50resto page. http://www.svo73mm.cjb.net

    Another 5 lug question, Rear Disc E-Brake problem,

    Again, it is because you most likely have damaged the self adjusting clutches on the rear caliper. Take it off an inspect it. Get a Haynes or Chiltons Manual to help you do this. You may need to get one for a 94+ car so you have the rebuild info on those rear calipers.

    Another 5 lug question, Rear Disc E-Brake problem,

    Check that all pistons are moving when you give them pressure. You will need a helper. Seems like the other one is not self adjusting. The clutches are probably broken in the piston which is why it was so easy to turn in. That would be my first concern. [b] Okay, so you had a 3...

    Another 5 lug question, Rear Disc E-Brake problem,

    When the motor is not running, you have no vacuum. The booster needs vaccum to work, thus no assist. [/b] Well you have one side of the car working with the brakes, the otherside is not. Thus start troubleshooting. Take the calipers off the mounts and have someone push the pedal once or...

    Slotted/drilled myth?

    This is what conflicts with your previous statement: "They wont crack" Proof is in the picture there. And that is a name brand unit = Powerslot As the Baer FAQ states, there is no performance reason. It is all for LOOKS. The reason the factory supercars have them is to lessen the...

    Slotted/drilled myth?

    "Ehhh, alot of people dont know what they are talking ": Now moving from myth to reality. Lets simply clarify this from a quote off the Baer Brakes FAQ: "What are the benefits to Crossdrilling, Slotting, and Zinc-Washing my rotors? In years past, crossdrilling and/or Slotting the...

    2003 LCA to fox body-ANSWER

    The 99+mustangs use 18mm bolts vs the previous 79-98 14mm for the UCAs and LCAs. So you probably got some 94-98 arms.

    M2300k problems

    If you checked the brake booster rod, you either have a bad MC or you have a piston that is sticking in the caliper. Also be sure the calipers are centered on the rotors.

    better rear braking on a 1990 coupe

    What ever. Larger brakes will modulate you better so you dont have to lock up the brakes. Locking up the brakes tells you nothing about braking. Just spiking the system. Larger brakes work better. Simple as leverage. Do some homework, Baer has a TON of FAQs to educate you and maybe...

    Front control arms......

    The Strut has nothing to do with the A arm. If you want a a arm that retains the stock spring location, I believe PA makes them still. Check the search for them here and on the corral.

    Vacuum Reservoirs?

    All 87-93s have a vacuum ball in the passenger fender. LIke said, you can find them on many yard cars and trucks. The Chevy trucks have them mounted to the hood, 2 minute removal there if you want an extra one in the system.

    Do I have SN95 spindles?

    You have basically the stock spindles and rotors, just with 5 lugs. If you want the 13" disc brakes, you need 17" wheels to start with. After that, you need new spindles, hubs, rotors, calipers, brake lines, MC and conversion parts. http://svo73mm.cjb.net
