Brake Question

[tdj7777]

I have a 89 lx. I ordered calipers for a 86 svo, braided front lines, and matching ceramic pads. Where can I find a braided line for the rear? I don't plan to put disc brakes on the rear. There are two 93 cobra mc's listed at Advance auto parts, Raybestos MC390125 MC Assembly pg plus w/ power brakes @ $98.99 and Bendix 12669 1" four wheel disc brakes @ $66.96 which do I need? I understand that I also need a mc conversion kit, what is in it, where to buy it, and do I need anything else? Also, what are steel side pin bushings and do they come on the calipers w/ steel piston? What rotors do I need to buy? Looking for drilled and slotted, but need to know if I can order for an 89 or do they have to be for a 86? Are they the same? Thanks.

No, you'll have to order those from www.maximummotorsports.com

What rotors do I need to buy? Looking for drilled and slotted, but need to know if I can order for an 89 or do they have to be for a 86? Are they the same? Thanks.

Did you convert to 5-lug? If you have 4-lug wheels still just get rotors for 87-93.

Fox brakes suck and you really should stick with a solid rotor, not anything crossdrilled or slotted. Removing mass from the rotor just makes it way more prone to warping. I know a lot of guys do it for looks...especially in thin spoked wheels, but when it comes to fox rotors, they already suck.

if you go to summit racing you can order braided lines cause i just did and it came with 2 fronts and 1 center rear

Stayed with the 4-lugs. I changed my mind and ordered the mc from a 94 gt from advance auto parts and the conversion kit from maximummotorsports. Advance had the ceramic pads listed, but then showed them as not carried when I ordered. Anyone know where to find ceramic pads?
