? for anyone that has done the SN-95 rear disc brake swap, do your Fox emergency

[1320stang]

brake cables hook up to them? Not talking about the 11.25" Cobra brakes, just the 10.5" GT/V6 disc brakes.

I did a search over all of StangNet, but didn't come up with anything. This will be using UltraStang's SN-95 adapters to go onto a 8" or 9" rear for my '65 Mustang coupe.

You have to get new cables and mod the fox ebrake handle to have emergency brakes after the swap.

So better to get a '94+ ebrake handle and cables, huh?

Dam, the '93 cables are brand new....

I'm almost sure (99.9%) all you need is the Brake cable from the SN cars. Try calling CJ Pony parts or someone else like that.

Is the difference in the length or drum vs. disc attachment?

When you all convert from drum to disc, do you leave the ebrake disconnected?

Ford part numbers:

center cable
M-2810-A
Rear cable (you need 2)
M-2809-A

and if you need the clips that hold the cables into the caliper
97413-S2

Then for the handle you have to weld the adjuster so it is disabled ill try to find pics and instuctions.

Here is the link for the complete instructions for the M-2300-K cobra brake conversion. The e-brake section is very detailed as to how to modify your e-brake handle. It is very easy to do.

Thanks guys, so since I have the '93 ebrake handle, it looks like I need the F3ZZ-2A635-A '93 Cobra specific brake cables. But I wonder, since I'm not working on a Fox/SN-95 chassis, if the '94+ cables would work. I'm going to have to figure out a way to attach the cables to the chassis since it's not the bare stiff cables of the '65 vintage.

I'm going to be using the smaller 10.5 brakes and PBR's so that I can put 15" wheels on it. I'd like to play on a road course sometime and I understand that the larger wheels have just too much weight, plus 15" will look more "right" as far as the vintage thing goes. Yeah, the discs in the rear won't be right, but I'll likely run some 15x7 steel wheels with some sticky track tires on them, so they won't be seen.

You can also buy the bracket that bolts to the LCAs that holds the handbrake cables from rubbing the rear tires.

Are you talking about the one that has a tab on one side and a hole for a bolt on the other? If som I have those, might attach them to the frame or subframe connectors. I want the setup to look factory when I'm done, no cobbling, which is why I got the "cup" the ebrake handle mounts to.

Yes, that tab goes over the top of the lower control arm and the hole gets the bolt from the swaybar. the outer hole on it is where you feed the handbrake cable through and it will prevent any rubbing on the tire and it looks factory because it is factory.

Well, making it look factory in a '65 Mustang coupe will be a bit different.
