Rear end swap q's 7.5 to 8.8


I am going to swap a 8.8 into my 3.8 mustang to get it ready for a 5.0 swap in the future but I have some questions. The car is a 1994. What year rear ends should I look for? It looks like 94-98 works but is there anymore? Are all the 8.8 rears from these years disk brakes? if so, am I going to need to swap out my brake booster, master cylinder, or propotioning valve(s)??? Anyone with experiance please chime in. I'm going to swap in some 3.73's prior to the swap and some upper and lower control arms. What problems am I going to run into and any advise?

i did it on my old 95 there will be no problems just take the brake lines off you old rear end and put them on the new one they wont line up exactly right but thats fine it works. and yes they are all disc brakes for those years. you dont have to worry about anything else if you have anymore questions let me kno. oh and your 8.8 rear end is gonna have the brackets for the quad shocks but you dont need to put the quad shocks on if you don't want to to. i didn't and it was fine.
