For anyone wanting to try the Mustang rear disc brake conversion, I have written an extensive journal with photos documenting my experience with this project including the gottcha's. For anyone wanting an e-mail copy, just send me a PM.

There is a pretty extensive write-up in the tech articles on putting rear Mustang brakes on Rangers. If you have more information to add you should post it and see if it can be added to the article. I am sure it would be appreciated.

I did use the tech article before I did my disc brake conversion BUT there was a lot more to learn and plenty I did not know till I got into it.

This is a pretty extensive write up with twenty plus photos. I wrote with the latex word processor to produce a formatted PDF so I'm not sure how to feed it into the website.
