Brake master swap help needed.

*Dre* · 09-12-2004, 11:02 AM

I'm about to embark on the task of swapping the master cylinder in my truck and have questions to all the guys that done it already. I'm using a Mustang master cylinder... and my question is - how and where do you connect the brake lines? there are three holes for the brake lines plus one that looks like a hole to screw in some kind of sensor... sensor I have no problem with - I can screw it in and not connect but three holes for the brake lines?

I do have an ABS...

thanks,

I don't know alot about the Ford braking systems, but on a GM, there are only 3 lines that go OUT of the combination/prop valve. You have 1 to the RF, one to the LF, and one single to feed both the REAR brakes, it's then T'd off at the Axle to the calipers on the RR, and LR.

I've got ABS - both of the lines go to the ABS unit and then to the wheels.
