What do I need? The setup... It has come time to replace my rotors and pads. Which means time to upgrade. I want to get the Baer 12" front sport kit. I figure I can do the drum to disk swap later down the line. My dilema... my booster hisses while I step on the pedal so I want to replace that as well. Can I just replace the booster with the stock piece, or will I need something more since I plan on doing the rear disk swap later? The front kit comes with a new master cylinder. Will I have to replace that when I do the rear? Thanks for any help.

If you replace thre booster, do yourself a favor and just use a Sn95 booster. It will work fine except require some finesse to install. It is more powerful than a Fox booster.

When you say finesse... Does that mean I'm gonna have to squeeze it in? Is it a direct swap? meaning everything will bolt right up

Yeah, the SN95 booster is physically bigger so it's a tighter squeeze. Also the bolt pattern on the booster is slightly wider. What you need to do is make a template and then elongate some of the holes int he firewall.

Once installed, the brake pedal and MC bolt on like stock.

You could also go for a '93 Cobra booster which is a little easier to install. If you go SN95, stick with the 94-95 years only.
