Hi! I'm new to stangnet and mustangs in general. I'm bringing a 70 Fastback back to life after having rescued it from an abusive home. She has a 351W and until recently had an FMX tranny. I recently bought a front disc set up from a guy parting another 70 stang. Now I would like to covert the rear. I have heard about a Ford Explorer conversion. I haven't found any more info though. Can anyone confirm and/or point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I tried Stainless Steel rear discs on my car and they work good and were easy to install except for one minor problem. I have never gotten the parking brakes to work with this system. Everyone I talked to has had the same issue. If I were to do it over again I would go the stock explorer route. Original Ford parts seem to always work better and repair parts are easier to find.

www.ultrastang.com has some info on the explorer setup if the rear axle you have is the correct one.
