Disc Brakes & Rear Springs

The worn out leaf springs were replaced with springs from Laurel Mountain Mustang. The springs came with the front bushings already install and the rear bushings came from Summit Racing. I sprayed the U-nuts and bushing bolts with PB Blaster the night before. The swap went way too easy with the correct tools like a 2-post lift, transmission jack and impact wrench. Things were going so smoothly I almost forgot to take pictures. The new spring gave it a two inch needed lift.

While out junkyarding with a friend looking for rear disc brakes I came across a '96 Grand Marquis with like new brake parts. The disc brake emergency inner cables were cut to Maverick length and threaded into the Maverick's outer cover. By cutting the head off a socket head bolt and drilling a hole to thread the cable end into the head then soldered the two together to make the ball.
