Default help needed

I have read the tech articles on this and it only makes my head hurt. I guess having a 86 mustang changes the rules on running four disc brakes. I only need some one to inform me of what master cylinder and brake booster i should use on my setup. I have already made post on this project so thanks to all that helped and thanks for the patience. I installed a 98 rear end and am installing 95 front setup for the five lug four disc swap. I read that a 85 lincoln bb works well for the 86 and I have also read that a 95 bb will work. any ideas? I want it to stop as good as possible because its hard to stop even from highway speeds as it is.

since you are already running 94-98 brake components. why would you even have to ask what MC and BB to run.... how about the ones that are designed for the parts you have installed..


I swear, you new guys get worse every year!

Agreed. if it will bolt right up. there is no since in making it to hard for not much difference. find one for a disk car with the same bolt pattern and it should work just fine. work smarter. not harder.

running a 95 was my first thought. but then i read all the post saying that a 86 mc has a odd bore size that only a select few mcs would fit. Also a 86 and later is said to have a different clearence between the mc and the strut tower. These are the reasons I ask for help. I didnt want to assume and end up with the wrong material.
