This will be the 2nd rearend I've installed in my 94, but the first one with disc brakes. I picked up a 97 w/ 4:10LS and discs for $200 + donor master cylinder.
I noticed that the master has a cruise switch located on the top, mine is manual trans and does not. Can I just cap off the hole where the cruise switch would attach, or do I need to find a master cylinder for discs made for a manual trans?
Also, before I tear into this I want to make sure I have everything.
Parts ready to go:
Donor rearend w/ calipers
Donor Master Cylinder
New rotors and pads
New parking brake shoes
New caliper pins
Front pinion seal
Steel braided brake hoses (1)left (1)right and (1) to replace hardline
Ford Racing/SVO cover for "bling"
Haynes also mentions something about not removing the master cylinder from any vehicle equipped with four-wheel antilock (abs) system because it allows air into the hydraulic control unit. Which only a dealer can bleed? True or false?
Thanks in advance, just want to make sure all my ducks are in a row
