Default any tips before I install vesailles rear end?

I'm getting ready to install my versallies rear end in my 67 vert, I am removing my brand new rotors and calipers also brackets etc...and 8" rear(for sale) and installing cobra brakes before I install it.

Has anyone had any issues with the versailles swap? Pinion angle? locating pin size? also what are you guys running for a M/C?

I have 4 piston front discs (stock type) and stock type booster I already have an adj prop valve installed to the rear.

Don't forget 3/8 spacers to use your existing tire and wheel setup.

And a Lokar e-brake cable setup if you still want the E-brake to work at all. It still won't work great unless you have another lever system like a center pull handle.

I didn't have any issues with installing the Versailles in mine, but mine is a 65. The things you asked about weren't an issue for my car.

I am running a MC like this one.

You could probably just run a later model MC like the SN95 or maybe even Fox Body Mustang has.

I actually have trouble with my E brake. It works but not perfect. I hava to pull the brake handle out almost all the way to make them work.

What Lokar setup are you refering to?
