Title: E-Brake Brackets
Post by: Superbird88 on May 23, 2011, 05:00:33 PM
I have brand new e-brake cables from Rock Auto and new c-clips from a local dealership for the disk brake setup on an '87 turbo coupe. Does anybody know where I can find brackets to match this set-up? Would the brackets from a Lincoln Mark IV or something like that work or something else, has anybody fabricated a bracket that will work?

Use Mark VII cables and you don't need any special brackets. The Mark VII rear cables work with the stock Birdcat front cables...

I don't have any brackets currently and do have e-brake cables for the turbo coupe. I'd rather not buy new e-brake cables for the mark vii if I don't have to but are you saying the brackets for the mark vii / or compabitible version are cheap and easy to come by. If so, where do I find the brackets for the mark vii cables and does anybody know why the cables for the turbo coupe need specific brackets? Also, are there specific c-clips for the mark vii cables?
