i had to end up making adapter lines. the rear end had a banjo bolt style connector on the rubber line and my fox needed a 3/8 flare nut to join it. if yours has the same problem let me know and i will ms paint you something to help yuo out.

Do you need SN95 E-brake cable to put that rear end in the fox? I put the 2001 axle in my 81 notch, and I used the cables,handle, and brackets.
