Tom thats what ive heard too but its kind of hard to find a tc and id be going 5lug so i thought the stang cables may work. Quote Selected

OP, just get a complete rear axle from a MKVII with the e-brake cables and you're set on the back. Just don't use the MKVII front set-up. Quote Selected

8.8 rear end Reply #8 – September 16, 2012, 07:43:16 PM By the way if you have POSI and do not have State inspection you can get away with hooking up the drivers side only. I am going to get a set of the new calipers with the new electric emergency brake setup. NO MORE CABLES!!! Quote Selected
