    to Drew today.
    took the Mav for a drive down to Drews to give him a set of...rear Crown Vic E-brake cables...that I modded for his read disc brakes on his mav.
    anyone doing this rear disc swap and would like to run the stock E-brake system, shoot me a PM...

    A.L.T.W.H.B.A...

    Is the rear disk convert worth the effort over the large 11" drums?

    serviceability and looks :)cool: factor) main reasons...:thumbs2:
    cheaper than replacing 2 new rear drums.
    if you would like to go with these...send me your Comet outer E-brake cables and the Crown Vic. inner ones and for the return shipping I will make you a set of disc brake E-cables to hook to your stock system. as a matter of fact...I will extend this offer to anyone that would need a set.
    I could also send instructions on how it's done. (cut cables to length, put ends on cables)...:thumbs2:
    :hmmm: may do a tech article...:bouncy:

    Thks for the offer Frank! I think for the nr future I will be staying w/ the 10" drums. The little driving I do, the drums will probably last the rest of my driving days..:D Also, I still have the stock mag type wheels w/ beauty rings so - looks is not a factor. I will keep the offer in mind in case I decide to go that route..

    with the # of people doing this swap soon maybe you should do the tech article.
    I have stalled out right now :cry: but that is still at the top of my list when things settle down. but it never hurts to gather info ahead of time.:clap:
