You will mount the soft lines on the rail like the above pic. But the Fox body doesn't have hardlines on both ends, it just has hard lines on the passenger side. So, you still might have to run the ones on the axle, but just modify or lengthen them with some fittings. This is my guess, though, I think 25th has your same setup you're installing. |

I have the SN95 set up. Mine were mounted to the Lower Control arm, shock bracket. Here are the terrible pics I grabbed. Remember it's dark under there, and my cell phone isn't the latest and greatest thing, so the pictures it takes arent great. Hope it does help though.   |

Thanks 25th!!! I think i understand how you have it. So you kept your stock hardlines over the rearend, and just cut the end and put an adapter so it would mate to the softline. The soft line you used the bracket that holds the shock in.. I will have to mess with it tomorrow morning before work. I got all the brakes painted up tonight so no really good progress/pics.
Tomorrow i won't be home either (going to fiance's) so no more progress until thursday evening.  |

Not sure why they are sideways, should have turned them...
I don't even remember doing a new adapter, just drilled holes in the shock/control arm bracket, and put it in. Im pretty sure the soft Sn and hard fox lines mated up fine out back. |

I was just a little confused becuase there is a hardline coming off the caliper that runs to a soft line, i guess i could make a circle and connect it to the hardline on the rear end. However - the hardlines on the rear were friggen welded to the drum brakes so i cut them. I'm just going to pick up an adapter and flare tool an put a new end on the old hard lines. The NRC brackets came with adapters for the rear brakes but they don't work they are too big. Quote:

Clean foxes are getting rare, trust me we were looking to buy one for 3-4 weeks, and we were searching a 7 state range. |

A well done set of dumps on a mean car can be cool... Nothing like blowing out a cloud of dust from under the car at start-up |

I run dumps but will have tailpipes someday. |

That is what my friend hates about his dumps. He REALLY hates it now that I repainted his car for him. He didn't care before that paint, but after, he hates the dirt flying up on the paint.
My notch is dumped over the rear axle, so I don't get too much dirt, but I still get a little. |

Hell yeah man. Those calipers and brackets look badass on the rear end!!!!!! Nice choice of red and grey/black for the brackets.
BTW....Is that shade of red the same shade on your womenz toes in the background???!!! 
Also...as far as the brake hose goes...You may be able to mount them opposite of how they are mounted on 94-04 cars. You might be able to mount them so those lines can bend up and reach. This may be much easier in the car, then on the floor.

Leave the hitch and yes your lines look different than mine for some reason. |

I figured instead of painting the rear brakes all red, i'd paint the caliper brackets a flat black, and the actual brake caliper red. I did the same for the front. I think what i'm going to do is, instead of having the soft line running to the rear end, i'll mount the soft lines from the rear caliber to the chassis like the 99+ car's have them, and then run the hard lines up in the tunnel and connect to the end of the softline that i mounted to the chassis. (just like the pic up top, but i'll have to bend and cut what's there.)
I think this may work. I'll have a much better idea once i get the rear in the car but that will be probably the last thing to go in. SVT i may need to hit you up for some parts again.. Like a stock airbox, inlet, MAF... Quote:

When i tired to fix the key to open the trunk i broke it. Once the car is "running" i'm going to bring it to a locksmith and have him make me a new key. I hope he can!!
I think maybe the caliper lines differ from 94-98 then 99+ but i'm not sure on that. |

I got all those mentioned parts for you. Let me know when you need them, and exactly which things, and they will be one their way to your house....quick.
And the 94-98 lines and the 99-04 lines do differ in the way they look. The head of the banjo bolt is smaller on the 94-98's. This kind of leads me to believe that the diameter of the threaded part might be smaller too....but I'm not sure. I just compared the two and I saw those slight differences. |

the NRC brackets included fittings for the softlines on the calipers. meaning i can cut the hardlines , and put these fittings on them, but the fittings they included do not fit the softlines on the calipers.. Another reason i think these differ from those years.. These rear brakes are from a 99+ car right SVT? | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread |  Linear Mode | |
