you like to buy tires monthly?????

I know i dont....

anything is possible, if the $$$$ is there....

IIRC, a GenIII had the swap done. I have yet to see it done on the other Gens.

Yeah i think there has been a Gen3 with it...and maybe a Gen2 now that I think about it. Something to do with the e-brake from a windstar mounted into the center console.

Do a search, I think theres a lot of info on here about it.

For a gen 3 it should be easy, just order the e-brake system (cables, brakets etc.) from a taurus in Australia. They all came with an Hand brake.

Did you ever see teh price quote on importing that? You'd be better off adapting something from another Ford product.

I didn't say it was the cheapest way, but the easiest. Or at least have someone there to pull one from a junkyard and send it to you.

i was thinking about getting a fox body mustang e brake and routing on the passengers side of the console. I'll probably have to Fabricate a new bracket to hold the e brake cable there. i was just wondering if anyone else has done it before. and as for tires 20 bucks each all day long so its not a big deal if i went through 2 rear tires every month.
