So I've done a carbed 302 swap, and a 8.8 disc brake rear axle from a 01 explorer WITH the explorer master cylinder into my 1990 single cab, reg bed, 2wd Ranger that had a 2.9 and 5 speed in it originally. I don't have the stock computer from the ranger anymore. I'm ocd and crazy and am about to start cleaning up the wiring, removing unneeded wires and connectors. I've got an EVTM coming to help me with that.
How do I hook up the parking/emergency brake cables on the rear axle? I got the Dorman universal kit, but haven't had any luck getting it to work with the 3 cables, the drivers side axle cable comes up past the cable coming back from the pedal, and the pass side is pretty far away from the front cable.
Will the ABS work at all? Is there a separate module, or was it controlled in the computer?
If the ABS is able to work at all, will the explorer axle sensors work? Also there is a sensor on the master cylinder, do I need to do anything with that?
Thanks,
Jon
