Alright,i couldnt find specific info for this so here we go.I am only doing front brakes.Now my car is a ex 4 banger that is still rocking the 4 banger calipers with ranger? rotors=they suck.I am picking up 94 GT front spindles/hubs ,calipers and lines........now am i wondering if the soft lines from the calipers are going to be good for this?or do i need any adapters for the hard lines?Rememer this has 4 cylinder brake lines.Thanks in advance for any help.

you will need an adapter for the passenger side hard-soft line connection. theres a weatherhead partnumber, but i dont have it in front of me right now.

4 banger and v8 should be the same.

the brake lines on the v-8 and 4 cyl are the same on the foxes. I did the 4cyl to v-8 conversion and kept the same soft lines. atleast I dont remember swapping them out LOL.

AP store fitting for the right side. You need a 3/8" female end (to go into hardline off of car) and a 1/4" male end to go into the caliper hose. Cost me $1.37.

Thanks fellas,i must say even tho i am trapping just under 105mph at the strip,it takes a while to slow down........its just plain horrible.I cant believe how bad they are even with newer rotors and pads.

You will also need to use 87-93 struts unless you feel like using spacers for your current struts
