Check out this site. I emailed Derik last year and he is still active. Noted that you can have emergency brakes with his setup. MKVII Lincoln front calipers are larger and stop harder. 2 Ranger driver side rear axles will complete the rears for full 5 lug. The T bird whole axle is 3/4 wider I believe so that will limit you to wheel width if you go that route. If you do the rear axle swap to ranger and keep drums in rear, that is still a good way to go.

the black 306 site does not have parking brake use ,how ever you can use stock cables if you mod the p-cable bkt.you must bend and then cut off at bend and weld in extension 1 inch long also the hole where p-cable goes in must be completely round ,i make up washer on lathe and weld in place.i v been doing this f 3 years and selling 5-lug rear disk kits.takes some work and fabrication skills.svo73mm site has info on proportion ing valve and master cylinders .svo mustang p-cables will work with out mods but changing p-cables is no fun!!
