I believe its like the 94-04 cars in which case that one line runs back then goes to a plate that splits and holds two separate cables for both rear wheels. So you should be able to just replace that first single cable which isn't to bad to do.

I think they are all basically the same, tear out the console and use a small nail to hold the spring. Don't let the spring unwind, it's a PIA to wind back up and put back together.

correct, there is a short cable and equalizer that comes off the parking brake ratchet and connects to the 2 rear parking brake cables..... it's still aval thru Ford, part # is F7ZZ-2A603-A list price is @$30.00 and thru us it sells for @$22.00 + s&h....

Thanks guys for the help. Ill try soon to fix it. I would try this weekend but Im gonna be heading out to Detroit for DEMF(Detroit Electronic Music Festival). But I gotta say I like Clemsons idea best 5 lug FTMFW!!! A little off topic, but did anyone go to Automotion at the Dells this past weekend? First year there for me and damn there were some sweet looking cars!! The guy staying in the room next to us had a 1991 hatch stang... Running a 347 dart block with a Vortech blower. He said he was putting out roughly 550 hp to the tires on 9psi and pump gas. Thing was clean had the 5 lug swap with the Cobra brakes and Bullitt wheels.... Was considering selling my stang untill I saw this and got motivated again.
