ok guys to start with i had a little accident with my car today so im going to fix it right. It was a 2.3 with a 4 speed originally, now it is a 5.0 5 speed and i have ranger from 5 lug swap and 84 rear end. so far til today the brakes have been ok, but i think my booster died because they quit pumping up and about half way down the pedal gets hard. a lady pulled out in front of me and i hit my brakes and the front wheels locked up and i dont think the back did anything, needless to say i wasn't stopping so i swerved into a construction area and bottomed my car out. Im not a happy person! I need to know what the best possible booster/master cylinder i can get for a budget and what i need to do for the brakes to work at their peak! I will change to sn95 spindles when i get the money so the front will go larger eventually. part numbers or sites would be incredibly useful. Thanks guys:burningmad:
