Hi all could I ask for some serious help please.I have fitted what I have been told is a XC Disc Brake LSD to my 72 XY Tribute.Everything has been overhauled Axle Bearings, Calipers all new parts,Brake Lines,and fittings. As you can see and the whole Diff has fitted just fine.I need to have a new handbrake cable made, so left the cable off,Before fitting wheels tested rotating driveshaft and everything free, dropped it on the ground......here comes the BUT.On road testing the car down the road, no more than 1 kilometers out and 1 back, the Drivers Side caliper starts locking up onto the disc by the time i get back to the workshop....SMOKIN and serious heat on mag, caliper and disc, can't touch anything for 1 hour.What have I done wrong..........1. On reversing out of workshop has this actuated the handbrake......2. Driving down the road has this actuated the handbrake.......3. Why is the Passenger Side not locking up as well.4. this will be the 3rd time I have reset this caliper.This has driven me mad even madder, than before.Photo links below.

Yes that is it in a nutshell removable disc without disturbing the axle/......................so when i order parts what model and year do i quote to the wholesaler SCA or any rare spares ,,,auto supplier. ........................MAN YOUR GOOD.

Hi Guys first post please be gentle......... I have a 1972 XY Falcon Tribute, the Diff that is is there now is Drum Brake.It must be one of the last diff as it has the mounting brackets for the rear sway bar welded to the housing.I am fitting a S/Hand LSD Borg Warner diff with Disc Brakes into the car.Diff Tag Serial Number is.....P/N 78DA-4005-MA Serial #12332. Ratio 2.72.So my questions are1. What is this diff out of.2. What Brake bias problems ....(A) fit what model Master Cyl to fix this but still look the same...(B) fit a Mustang Brake bias Valve unit............Or What else.3. Hand brake cable difference.........length.I have measured and this just slips straight in.And thoughts on any other problems.......Regards Dave
