So according to the fox brake upgrade link: http://svo73mm.cjb.net/, calipers off of a 91' Lincoln Mark VII and those from an 86' SVO will bolt right up to an 87-92 Fox Mustang.
After comparing them to those from an 89' 5.0 Mustang I found a major difference.
91' Lincoln Mark VII Calipers
1) The right side caliper mounting holes were farther apart than the 89' 5.0's.
2) The left side caliper mounting holes matched perfect.
86' Mustang SVO Calipers
1) Both caliper mounting holes were closer together than the 89' 5.0's.
The differences were about 1/2 to 3/4's of the mounting holes' diameter.
Is there something that I'm missing, or do these mounting holes need to be exact for the correct fit? I have not yet dabbled with my front brakes so I am not sure if these units would still work. Can anyone clarify things for me?
