Description:
|
An SLP exclusive, this unit is designed to fit all 1999-2004 4.6 SOHC and 2003 DOHC Mustangs. Here's how it works: Press the brake pedal and flip the brake-control solenoid switch. Remove your foot from the pedal, and the solenoid maintains line pressure to the front brakes until the switch is released. This makes it easy to heat the rear tires in the burnout box, while minimizing wear and tear on your car's rear brake components. You can also use the system to prevent a manual-trans car from rolling out of the staging beams at the starting line.
This kit is custom-fitted to the Mustang chassis (no tweaking or fabrication required!) and is fully compatible with the factory anti-lock braking and traction-control systems. It includes a waterproof electrical solenoid, an activation switch, plug-in wires, CNC-bent steel lines with correct OE fittings, mounting hardware, and detailed installation instructions.

Pros:
|
pre-bent replacement brake line; it's the only mustang-specific kit on the market that I know of (includes every part you need.) Easy electrical connections
|
|
Cons:
|
Marginal instructions with a few mistakes, brake lines and fittings require some slight bending to make them fit; install is a bit of a PITA
|
|
It's a decent kit, but I'd ditch the toggle switch that comes with it and at least get a different toggle switch with a cover like I did. Bleeding the brake system is a pain; buy some speed bleeders to make this part of the install a lot easier. Make sure you bleed the master cylinder first, then each corner starting with the wheel furthest from the master cylinder (pass side rear) and work towards the closest (driver side front.) Instructions have a few errors and the illustrations/pictures are terrible. At least one of the wrenches SLP advises you to cut is not necessary.
I got mine to work properly/no leaks/etc the first go around. Many others have not been so lucky. Just work slowly and methodically, and don't be afraid to call SLP for advice/info on the install instructions.
