Title: will mustnag bake lines fit
Post by: Cougar20th on July 12, 2015, 08:34:46 PM
So after some major life changes for me (house, wife, kid) im ready to get me anniversary cougar back on the road for next year.

Does anyone know if 87 fox mustnag brake lines will fit if they are extended to the right length. Or don't s anyone know where to get lines for the cougar.

If we are talking the soft lines then http://www.rockauto.com shows to have them as well as Oreilly, Autozone, Napa, etc.

Now if you are looking at the hard lines then you will need to pull them from another Cougar or T-Bird as the lines from an 87-93 Mustang are different in some spots if I remember correctly.  You could also just make your own which a lot of folks do on older hot rods.

Making brake lines is actually kinda fun once you get used to it.

AND, most time an advance/autozone/oreily will lend you a double flaring kit

oh yea, I had fun too... after installing my frame rails, brake lines and E-brake lines needed to be done differently...
still thinking about the E-brake though ;)

Its the hard lines. They are all junk on my car. One of 2 reasons I put it in storage 12ish years ago. The other was a lose of interest at the time. Ill also replace all the soft lines while Im there. Ive got several things to chase.

I was hoping I could get a stainless steel kit for a 87 mustang and just splice in a extension in the middle to make up the wheelbase difference. But I guess that's out.
I was hoping to not have to bend all the lines. Ive got all the tools just figured it would be easier.
