    Does anyone know where I can get a export brace for Maverick with power brakes?

    Did you put request in the "Wanted" section? You might contact Craig Selvey, he has lots of parts.

    I don't recall any made specifically for the Maverick with power brakes.
    Member Toporanger was making them for regular cars, but he has not been on the boards for about a year.

    Many of us have used the Mustang brace and cut it down and rewelded it to fit the Maverick - but again this would be for a regular car without power brakes.

    You might end up retaining the stock cowl braces for the power brake car and adding the Monte Carlo bar to add strength. That power brake really gets in the way of any room for the export brace.
