will a 1988 t-bird fit in my 1986 mustang direct bolt up, it is a disk brake set up will i have to change the proportioning valve or adjust it, shud it just bolt up?

Im assuming that is a turbocoupe rear. I believe they are the only ones that came with disc brakes in the back but someone correct me if Im wrong. The rear is gonna be wider by 3/4" on each side. If you are running stock size tires you will have no issues at all. Wider and youll be rolling some fenders. You will need:

-adjustable prop valve
-modified e brake handle
-adjustable e brake line
-2 new e brake lines from Ford Racing (I got mine from Napa but now they are everywhere)
-You will also need to gut your stock prop valve

Im sure there's more, check out this site and if you do the swap and have any specific questions you can PM me. Good Luck

thanks man wil the prop vave and e-brake cable work from the t bird?

 

[Stangboy5666]

unfortunately no. i got my prop valve from summit for like $40 or something and my ebrake cables were like $60 total. i would also advise that your ebrake will not be very strong anymore. The ebrake system on these discs is terrible and just cant hold very well. I cant believe people put up with it in a stock car
