70-DropTop 12 Report post Posted August 26, 2014 I have a center parking brake handle out of an 05-09 (s197) stang with 99-04 (sn95) cobra rear disc brakes in my 70 convertible and i need a solution to what parking brake cables to use. I've seen this done a couple times, but no mention on what cables they used. I'll explain my plan later on why this combo. 1) S197 cables? 2) SN95 cables 3) lokar universal cables 4) something else? Thanks folks! Love the ideas generated here so I'm hoping someone has an idea that works! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeStang 247 Report post Posted August 26, 2014 Lokar seems like a good option since they are cut to fit. I found a 2005 Wrecked Convertable in the junk yard a few days ago...Still had the brakes and suspension under it, along with the seats but dash was gone if I recall along with the console... Any of the suspension stuff from 2005 or brakes work on our cars? I want that steering wheel in my 69 but dont know if i can adapt it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike65 475 Report post Posted August 26, 2014 My center e-brake handle is out of a 87 Fox Mustang. I would be interested on which to use, since I will have rear disc brakes also. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
70-DropTop 12 Report post Posted August 27, 2014 I ended up ordering the Lokar EC-80FUTB. Supposedly it works for the SN95 cobra rear disc brakes, comes with necessary brackets and are cut to length. Will let you know in a couple weeks after I get them and mount them to the car. This all goes back to wanting cup holders, center parking brake (became more of a need than want), and having a manual tranny. I did a lot of research and came across a guy on VMF that goes by Rudolph Schenker that had the ticket. Here's a link to his thread on the topic. He has an amazing ride.

chaosrob 10 Report post Posted August 27, 2014 I'm going to add an electric e brake system to mine. Just my preference but anything short of that or a door side lever will create issues for the console I want to build Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
70-DropTop 12 Report post Posted August 27, 2014 Interesting idea to go electric. BTW, I found Rudolph's build progress thread on this site...awesome! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chaosrob 10 Report post Posted August 30, 2014 Flash, You can make your own or go with a kit. I'm going with the kit for ease of install and peace of mind. I have already done enough fabbing on this thing :) http://www.speedwaymotors.com/E-Stopp-Electric-Emergency-Brake-Kit,65217.html?gclid=CjwKEAjwyYCgBRCMmbWl5beV_RQSJABESqHAlSigsSiia4Lfe_2BSC1VCo0sr9lfhVAHI_J5-bKEhRoCqubw_wcB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
