Need some help folks

[Skuzzy]

The 1989 Thunderbird pads almost fit. They were the right width, but they would not sit flat in the caliper and did not allow the rotor to fit between them. Still looking at them though. They show the most promise so far.

If I could find a caliper to replace these, I would go that route. I am getting concerned this is going to keep me from completing my build in time for San Marcos.

I only have the weekends to drive around and look for parts.

I am just going to forgo completing the rear end assembly, in case I have to pull the axles to replace the bracket, or to make more measurements. The evenings, this week, are for running fuel and brake lines.

The rear pads only fill the center section on those and not the full carrier like on the fronts.

Like these. Flip thru a few photos to see the pad size.

The Mustang caliper does look like it the right one, but the pads are not wide enough to engage the caliper pad capture slots. The pads would get ripped out of there first time you engaged the brake.
