Pedal to the metal

Since it's a conversion from a automatic to manual gearbox it's time to install the clutch cable. The clutch pedal needs to be mounted NOT on the brake pedal (thanks Nick from MustangsUnlimited to help me out with that)

Brake lines

I've ordered a new set of brake lines from MustangsUnlimited. All bends are already in the lines so no need to worry about it.
First put them all in place, then tighten them. Unfortunately it look like I'm missing the driver side brake line. So a quick call to MU and they will ship a new one. So we'll have to wait until we can put some oil into lines




Sway away

Ok we are almost ready with the rear end, still have to add the sway bar. New spaces ordered so that makes the installation very easy.

Suspension

Installing the rear suspension is quite easy, just putting the suspension on the correct places and add the new rubbers on it.

Rear Brakes

Startup from bottom to up! Let's start with the rear brakes installation. Luckily I had the rear brakes already mounted on the axle, so we still had to add the callipers and connect the sway bar.
