Approximately how long did the job take you? I’ll be tackling this job soon. I bought new cylinders and lines just with the reasoning that if I’m already in there and they’re 15 years old might as well freshen it all up.

By myself took about 4 hours I think. If you have a second set of hands just to hold the top in position when you attach the new cylinders, you can easily cut your time in half.

Cleaned up and installed bushings in the IRS.

Finally got some clear weather and dropped her of at the local Ford Dealer to get the new bumper re-sprayed.

Ford Racing diff cover installed, and the Terminator Radiator Cover was installed as well, however I'm having difficulty. Currently I kept the factory hood prop rod. I was unable to use my MRT hood struts, because the hood wouldn't fully close. It kept touching/hotting the CC plates. Any suggestions?

Take a few pic's of the hood strut install.

I removed them. I have them in the trunk. They were unable to fully close and LP told me that some have had issues with CC plates and their hood struts colliding with each other. The last thing I want to do is trim anything. Just a major PITA.

But I am positive there are members here who have these two things and were able to install them perfectly fine...

Skitzerman · Mar 12, 2019

Do they look like these?

I have MRTs

MRT Engineering 94-04 Mustang No Drill Hood Struts

Skitzerman · Mar 12, 2019

That's what I have installed. I can't see how they would come in contact with the CC plates.

I had them and had CC plates as well from MM. They fit just fine and didn’t hit anything nor did I have to trim, drill or massage anything. Wish I could take a pic and send them you but I no longer have that car. I remember I had to get a longer bolt is all. But the biggest factor in me for purchasing them was the no drilling etc. maybe you had them on the wrong side? Trying installing them again but swap sides?

Good idea. I'll work on it this weekend since I'm stacked with work. I swear if it was just because it was in the wrong side....

Also thanks as well @Skitzerman. I'm definitely doing something wrong.

Yeah man, once you swap them, side to side, they'll look, feel and work like new money. Enjoy

You must have the mounts opposite. Mine aren’t even close to each other

What rear brake kits do you guys recommend? For my front, I currently am running Wildwood 6 piston 14'' rotors.

How do you like them? I've been looking into that kit as well.

I have MRTs on mine no issues, except during install, one of the fender bolts was a pia to screw back in, i couldn't get it to bite in order to screw in, its like the factory bolt was to short.

Skitzerman · Mar 12, 2019

They should provide longer bolts with these kits. Heading down to the bolt store is a pain in the ass.

I had that problem also. I forget what I ended up doing. Probably getting longer ones.
