Scuff the surface, some recommend paint or primer. The upholstery shop didn't want paint, but another did. Use the right glue and be fast! Worry about the lines being straight! Not that hard really.

I think you are going too in depth. By the time you buy an fittings, you can have new custom length hoses.  Get the fittings from the junkyard for the rack. Only one hose is high pressure, have this hose made with rack fitting and pump fitting. The other is low pressure return, you could do yourself, or just have the fitting put on a new hose. I got both made for about 40$ total, but had 4 fittings put on using a type ii pump from a Cadillac with a v groove pulley and a jeep reservoir. Looks factory.

Prop valve installed correctly. No probs with bearings, as wheels spin freely without brakes installed. Could be a line.

I have the 2000 mustang aluminium one. Yes the cables are hooked up, I took off any tension. The brakes just don't seem to release the right way. Power booster, prop valve, all exactly as directions state. I'm thinking about loosening brake line at MC and see if that release pressure.

I am using everything from you, MS. The fronts are fine, but once the pedal is applied, the rears tighten, but then don't release enough, the wheels won't spin freely. So it may be the MC?

So here is my problem. MS 2005-2010 rear disc brake conversion on an 8.8 rear, yea, I know, it was on an 8 inch prior. It is now mounted on the rear of axle. Is there a secret to setting the parking brake ?  I turned the pistons in all the way, put the pads in and mounted on the car, bled brakes and front works fine, rear brakes drag. I have a manual adjust proportion ing valve, I have not turned it at all, so there should be no residual pressure. The calipers are aligned correctly and there is plenty of space when I first put the loaded calipers on. They just drag, is it something with the e brake, or am I missing something?

The motors are headlight motors, the kits are bolt in, one hole to drill(possibly optional, but helps with support), 3 wires to connect, one to positive, one to negative and one to headlight switch/dimmer switch. Easy to install, nothing more to buy, nothing to fabricate, when you turn your headlights on, the grill doors open, just as original(except this works).
Payment through paypal only. Tell me which kit you would like, I will email you an invoice, upon payment, I will print a shipping label and have the kit in the mail that day or the next. I will also email the tracking number. It is important to email me the correct shipping address as people tend to not have the
correct address on their paypal. 
If there are any special ideas or requests you would like done to a kit, ask, I may be able to
accommodate them.
As seen on Stacey David's GEARZ, also available at WCCC, I am the builder and supplier of these kits.
coming soon, 69/70 Cougar kits.
