Installation
11. 1 *** Instructions
WARNING: SLP Recommends wearing safety glasses for the complete installation.
WARNING: SLP Recommends allowing the vehicle to cool (not running) for five Hrs before beginning installation.
WARNING: Too avoid the chance of electrical shock or damage to your vehicle’s electrical system,
disconnect both the negative and positive batter leads (in that order) at the battery.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS–#M25005
1. First drain the brake fluid from the master cylinder reservoir by either sucking the fluid out from the top or removing the rear brake line and letting the fluid drip into a cup. If the reservoir is not drained properly, brake fluid will drip onto you and the vehicles exhaust manifolds during the installation.
2. Next disconnect the negative battery terminal. Remove the factory airbox.
3. Next, remove the brake line that runs to therear portof the master cylinder. To remove this line you must remove the nut that connects the line to the master cylinder and the nut that connects the line to the proportioning valve. See Figure 1 below for location of line in master cylinder.
4. Remove the nut from the proportioning valve on the opposite side of the line nut removed from the master cylinder. Remove this stock line from the vehicle. See photo 2 below for location in proportioning valve.
5. On a work bench insert the included tube nut adapters (using Teflon tape on the 1/8” NPT side) into each end of SLP’s solenoid. Tighten the nut adapters.
6. Insert the master cylinder line into the vehicle by guiding the master cylinder end towards the brake booster. Route the master cylinder line underneath the master and into the rear brake fitting. Note this line will easily slide into place, if you experience difficulty you may be routing it through the wrong location. Additionally, this line will also snap into the factory line clip that the factory line was removed from. See Figure 3 for routing location.
7. Next loosely install the proportioning valve to solenoid brake line into the proportioning valve. See Figure 4.
8. Next insert the solenoid between the two lines installed previously and loosely tighten(NOTE: Make sure the side marked MC is facing the Master Cylinder).Position the solenoid so that both lines are relaxed and mark through the mounting holes to the fender with a sharpie where you will be drilling for the mounting screws.
9. Remove the solenoid and drill a pilot hole on each mark made in step 8.
10. Reinstall the solenoid and FULLY tighten down all brake line fittings.
11. Mount the solenoid to the fender using the supplied hardware. At this time you can also install the short ground wire (with the ring terminal) under the head of one of the pilot screws. Install the spade connector as well. See Figure 5 below.
12. Fill the reservoir with brake fluid.
13. BLEED THE BRAKE SYSTEM THOROUGHLY.
14. Next, install the other supplied wire harnesses. The harness with the add-a-circuit fuse is to be routed from the fuse box, across the firewall of the vehicle, through the grommet on the driver’s side into the cabin (grommet is under the brake booster), and then to your center console (or wherever else you wish). Zip-tie where appropriate. Pull out the 3rd
10A fuse and insert it into the lower of the two fuse slots on the add-a-circuit. There should already be a 10A fuse in the top slot, and you will add the fuse that you just pulled
out. See Figures 6 and 7 below. Note the wire routing out of the fuse box.
15. Mount the supplied switch anywhere from the kick panel to the center console. A ½” hole will need to be made so that the switch can be mounted. Once mounted, route the supplied 9’ wire with 2 female spade connectors through the fire wall (where the wire from the fuse box came from) and to the solenoid. Connect at the free spade terminal on the solenoid. Connect the two wire harnesses at the switch. A sample location is shown below in Figure 8.
16. Reinstall the airbox and start the vehicle. Re-bleed the brake system if necessary.
17. The installation is now complete.

I have been toying with Mustangs since before a driver's license was even an option. I've owned somewhere around 15 and I'm not done by a long shot. It all started with a 175 HP pearl white convertible Fox Body. It sparked my love for Mustang's and that sparked a...

Got into cars when I was young. Always was into the Mustangs because of the movie 'Gone in 60 Seconds' with the 1967 Shelby GT500 Fast back when I was growing up. I am currently attending Universal Technical Institute for Automotive/Diesel and Ford Fact program. I just started working at...

I may be the only person to ever brave a winter with drag radials on a Mustang, while still daily driving it. Don’t worry, I finally got them off in the spring (day late and a dollar short, right?), and I promptly finished those tires at our company picnic in...

I have always been around Mustangs in my professional life, either fixing them as a mechanic, selling them at dealerships, or modding them here at AmericanMuscle. Instead of starting right away with the power mods, I started looking more into suspension and weight reduction. I have always dreamed of entering...

I am a diehard Mustang fanatic. I first fell in love with Mustangs when I was 15 years old and I found a 1966 Mustang coupe restoration project. That was the beginning of my addiction. I quickly added a 1993 Mustang LX 5.0 to my collection which served as my...

This whole story starts when I was 15 and I had to have a foxbody. So I went out and found the loudest fastest foxbody that 5 grand could buy. When I realized that this thing was a certain death trap I sold it and moved onto the 2000 GT...

I got my first Mustang when I was 16, a two tone 91 GT red and silver with a sunroof that didn’t leak! And needless to say I was a bit timid to do work on it, I hadn’t modified any vehicle before outside of installing a CD player. I...

Recently I bought my first home, the selling point for the house was not the amount of land, bedrooms, or bathrooms like how most people would choose a home. I made my choice based on the garage where the mustang sleeps. The garage is completely finished with painted floors, walls,...

My first car was a 1989 Ford Mustang Saleen Convertible that I used as my test car to learn about working on Mustangs. Foxbodies have become my passion and now I pretty much consider myself a Foxbody expert. My dream project car is a Foxbody with a 03-04 cobra swap...

I've loved Mustangs for as long as I can remember. My dad was a Camaro guy growing up, but his first work truck was a Ford, and we've been a Ford-only family ever since. My dad is a sheet metal worker/mechanic, so everything I know about my car I learned...

I’ve had 18 Mustangs, ranging from a stock 66 coupe to a low 9-second Fun Ford Weekend” Street Renegade 96 GT that made 888 RWHP. (308 cid motor, Edelbrock heads, intake and topped off with a Paxton Novi 2000R supercharger pushing 30 psi of boost). My best pass in that...

Mustangs hold a special place in my heart. My father owned a 65 mustang when he was younger, but a friend wrecked it. The grille pony still sits on his workbench. Until getting my own pony, I had no clue why he would keep a metal horse for so long....
