Kelly hotrod - disk brake swap page 3

Here are the final connections to the distribution block on the Mustang. The master cylinder is the same part as specified for the donor car - 1976 Maverick 6 cylinder, manual disk.

This photo is of the final setup on the Falcon. The master cylinder used here is a stock 1967 Falcon manual disk brake unit. This install is complicated by the addition of a line loc. The distribution block on this Falcon model is located far enough from the firewall so that the rear connection (left front line) can be attached easily. Here, it's moved to a "T" after the line loc, allowing the line loc to lock both front brakes.

A crude alignment was performed after the new spindles and rotors were attached to the car. A couple of steel bars where clamped to the rotors and the tie rods were adjusted for 1/8 to 1/4 toe in. Take the car to an alignment shop after this to get it right. The final setup with the caliper looks straight from the factory. Stopping is greatly improved.
