I want to swap the complete rear axle out of a 99 GT in my 91 Coupe. I am also going to take the front spindles and brakes. Basically I want to swap over to have the four wheel disk set up.

Beside having to replace the master cyl, what other things should I expect to have to change?

Ok, Ok I know that most "kids" go with HP, but with the my 79 I went with rear disks from a turbo coup that I got off of ebay and did the swap myself. I also went with the SVO MC. It was funny the guy at Autozone said it would never work, got it home and it bolted right up and has worked great ever sence. After brakes, then came the intake and exhaust, oh yeah and a 300hp creat engine, then the C4 died. So just because some of us are younger, doesnt mean we dont always do it wrong.

Also, some people cant always afford disk breaks right off the bat. I think Muscle car (maybe horsepower or some show like that) did a rear drum upgrade that shaved like 30ft off of the 60-0 distance. So you can still upgrade the stock breaks, using stock stuff.

hey with doing those brakes from what I've checked out they say I can use a doner car but I have to take most all the brake system.something about the pressure is different from the master cylinder and from there you have to go to ford and get a wierd looking bolt that goes in the end of the proportioning block and then you install the front spindles with the shocks attached(thats what the ford tech. at my local dealer said) but he said there was a difference in the size of the ball joint so he said something about a thick washer on the topside of the ball joint before you put the nut on???then the rear was pretty much a simple swap.and I believe that the doner car could be any year after the fox body v6 or v8 . please somebody correct me if I'm wrong..

if you just add 73mm caliper from a 85-86 svo and master cyl from a '95 you will notice a huge difference for around 100 bux!!!!!!!!!!

Okay so I purchased an 86 GT and she was dead so far I have replaced:

fluids, fan, fan clutch (did wonders BTW), starter, solenoid, alternator, fuel tank, fuel pump (still need a new relay).

Next is the exhaust and plugs / wires (I'm missing 2 pipes and one muffler but love the sound)

Then the suspension.

I have a few questions:

1. When I get into the suspension I know I need new brakes, control arms, bushings, and tie rods I would rather swap the stock suspension out now since I'm doing the work and go performance where do I go (in Colorado) and what is the best for my $$? which at this point not an issue.

2. After the suspension, exhaust, and probably cold air upgrade I will be moving into giving my new baby the clutch upgrades.

Then more horses so I need to know:

*Exactly how much HP can I put into my 4 eye before I will have to replace the Rear end?

*What recommendations do you guys have to get me the most HP with the best bolt on engine upgrades (I would like to do the bolt on's before I do the intake / exhaust) headers, pistons, rings, pulleys etc.

*I would like to go more Cubic inches for power rather than supercharger

more space = more power right? no forced.

nice nice post. there is a lot of truth to that. most people just go straight for a supercharger and dont realize what all they have to upgrade..thinking they can get away with what comes in the kit.. haha. but nice article..learned a few things too.. thanks man
