91lxproject’s 1991 Ford Escort

To do a rear disc conversion on your 2nd gen Escort you will need: - Entire disc assembly(disc, caliper, mount) - GT e-brake cables - At least 14" rims (stock 13" will not fit over caliper)If you are buying used parts make sure all of the caliper rubber bushings are still there and that the bolts aren't stripped (stripping the heads on those is very easy so be careful). I also suggest getting a spare caliper or two as sometimes they're bad and you usually can't tell just by looking.Once you have the parts simply remove the old drum assembly and bolt the disc directly in its place. Then bleed the brake system and adjust your e-brake cable. If the e-brake still doesn't work try removing the bolt on the back of the caliper, near the brake line, and sticking a allen wrench in and adjusting there.

The PaintHeaded down I-75 South I had a little fender bender. OK it was more than a little one. I didn't take any pics of the damage but needless to say it was BAD. Well my father graciously decided to repair and get the whole thing painted at the cost of several thousand dollars. Many thanks Dad!Its not finished yet. I still need to get "Escort LX" stickers, put the front tag on, fog lamps, and a few other little things but I think its finished enough to show off.The interior hasn't changed.

The first to be addressed was the carpet. About five years without cleaning and grease, dirt, and who knows what else was ground into it made for a serious problem. The only way to deal with soil like that was to remove it and blast it clean a a car wash, the remaining discolorations were covered with new floor mats.

Exhaust SystemDual exhaust using PaceSetter headers and a Thrush glasspack. We were recommended an exhaust man, but he doesn't do headers and after installing them ourselves I can see why. After driving it up to him with just headers (drawing some stares along the way) we now have our finished product.
