Ok guys forgive the crappy pics and the fact the cars dirty, I just wanted to show you guys the 5 Lug conversion with discs and the Eibach Pro Line Spring instal I just finished,

Was a big job but I got through it,

What you guys think? Better than the Ponys right?

Car looks great man. The cobras are much better compared to the ponys you had. They really accent your new paint job. Do you happen to have any closer pics of the diamond headlights. I'm looking to get some, but I'm still not sure yet.

btw, I'll be going on saturday too. Check the sig for pics. They're pretty outdated though. I just hope that the swap meet isn't like the spring one where there's like 4 people selling mustang parts and everyone else is selling rusted GM crap.

Look forward to seeing ya.

Yeah Thanks for that Chris
Actually I do have one more question

My E-Brake still feels like crap, Dosent grip good,

Is that because I didnt get the adjustable Center cable from Ford Racing? I just re0used my old one,

and I didnt do any modifications to my Ebrake handle as Matt says in his website,

How can I make my Ebrake "bite"?

I didnt use a kit or Package,
I found all the parts,

heres what I got,
Front,
95 Spindles, Hubs, Calipers, New Softline (drivers side only) rotors, ceramic Pads,

rear
97 GT Complete rear end (I ended up stripping it and adding to my car as my 3.55 gears were installed and I only wnated to do that once lol)
So for the rear a breakdown is
97 Axels, Calipers, Mounting Brackets, AntiMoan brackets, New Softlines (both) Rotors, pads,

Misc,
96 V6 Brake Booster (PITA to fit)
96 V6 Master Cyl,
Ford Racing Prop Valve plug, Ford Racing 2 rear E-Brake Cables, Wilwood Adj Prop Valve, 3-2 Port conversion,
I "think" thats it, But with ALL this, AND Rims the whole convertion cost me a little over $700

I got a GREAT deal on all the bits from a really cool Junkyard,

Well I aint gonna lie,
It is, and I wouldnt want to do it everyday for a living lol
But its rewarding, To know you did all that,
Its also quite fun chasing down all the little parts you need, Its like a treasure hunt

Ask my Buddie Thomas he knows

Nice! I just did my rear disc this weekend. Didn't go 5 lug though. I have my cobra rims sitting in the house waiting for some tires.

You can check the sig for pics. I didn't dare take pictures of the calipers with the rims I have now. Wouldn't do it justice.

The ride quality is actually better
My Springs must have been shot as my ride was really rough,
These springs have firmed up my Ride quality and made it smoother

Go Eibach! lol
