I have the SN95 rear brackets, calipers, soft lines, and hard lines. My question is since I have the fox length five lug axles how can I make the brackets work? I remember I found a really good link on how they cut the bracket and slap it behind the diff but I can’t find it. Can someone tell me on how to do the swap or post the link?

P.S. I already have the master cylinder, PV, and booster so I am just stuck with the rear end.

I remember that link, but I went with North Race Car brackets, so I can't help you with the mod, really. IIRC though, you could probably figure it out just by mocking everything up, and cutting out the least amount of material as necessary.

If you have 94-98 axles, just bolt it up the way ford did it on the sn95. No mods needed.

The adapters for the rear are weatherhead 7818

Yup, then you'll need to carefully curl the fox brake line in a loop to connect to the 94-95 soft line brackets
