I have a 93 lx. Car is a 4cyl conversion. I plan on getting some type of 31 spline center with 4.10 gears. I have all the brake stuff from a V8 fox car. I want to run fox length axles, and sn95 rear brakes. I did the front conversion fine. I have all the brake parts off of a 97 v6 car. Is this everything I need? Somebody said something about a conversion kit. Do I need it? How do I connect the V8 brake line from the chassis to the sn95 components I have seen mjbobbits site, and that is not making much sense to me either. Any ideas? Thanks
Really confused about my rear end/sn95 rear brake upgrade

i used all parts from a 95 v6. i used the rear hard line from the sn95. the hard line had a soft line connected to it about six inches (i think). i bent/move the hard line that connects to the body on top of the pumpkin over to reach the soft line i just talked about. i used the mount that was on the sn95 that connects to the exhaust flange. i had to cut one side of the the mount to make it fit on my flange.
i also decided to put the cobra master, calipers, and rotors up front. i also put the brake booster in from the 95.
if you need pics, i can post them in a day or so. let me know.
oh and you'll need new e brake cables, the sn95's don't work, you can get them from latemodelrestoration.com
and you'll have to mod the e brake handle but it wasn't that hard.

you'll need these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mustang-SN95-Rear-Brake-Line-Adapter-Fitting-79-93-NEW_W0QQitemZ110172941684QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item19a6d1ad74&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14 to adapt the rear hard lines to the sn-95 soft lines in the rear.
ok what do I need. I have the hardline from a v8 fox body. I have the sn95 calipers and soft brake lines. I bought the North Race Cars brackets. It came with an adapter fitting. Can I bolt the caliper soft lines drectly to the fox hard line? The hardlines on the 95 were rotted so I did not save them.
Purchase rear caliper soft line brackets from a 1994-1995 Mustang. They bolt to the axle and you run the axle hard lines to them
ok I am still confused. If I used these adapters can I use all of the 87-93 hardware up until the ssn95 rear rubber lines that go to the caliper? Or do I still need to get the sn95 rear line?
Those adapters adapt the Fox brake hard line that is on the rear axle into the 94-95 Mustang soft line brackets you need to purchase. So you need both.
Those are the equiv to Weatherhead 7818 adapters sold at NAPA for a few bucks. Save yourself some shipping. I beleive autozone as well sells them in the bolt and fitting isle. They are in the yellow case...7/16 male to 3/8 female. I think it was 2 for $5 or so?

ok I get it thanks for the help. The soft line brackets are on the sn95 cars? Or are they aftermarket pieces? Thanks for the help!
