Parking (Emergency) Brake

[RdstrRod]

If I decide to use an OEM Mustang Parking Brake system instead of the FFR supplied one, what year(s) Mustang Handle & Cables do I need?
Ref: Forte supplied 8.8" solid rear axle with 11" Mustang Discs.
TIA, Rod

Any 87-93 will work.

I used an 87-93 Mustang e-brake handle Ford PN F5ZZ 2780 AA. You will also need an equalizer, 87-93 Mustang Ford PN E7ZZ2A603A, 8 inch. For cables, that can get interesting and was for me challenging on both of my builds. For my Mk3 build with solid rear axle and Cobra 11.65 rear disks, I ended up with 95 Mustang cables. 66.5 inch housing, 70 inches overall. These routed OK including above the 4 inch frame tubes. I'm not a fan of routing them under the tubes as shown in the instructions for longer cables. For my Mk4, I had to use Wilwood cables to match up with the Wilwood brakes. HTH.

OK, thanks. I knew you guys would have the answer. Gotta love this forum! Rod

Hey RdstrRod,

I used all the stock e-brake components from a '98 Cobra SVT on mine and it fit right in place...no problem. The brakes are again all stock cobra 11" Cobra stuff. I'm sure they would be the same as all n95 Stangs.

Have fun
