You can cut the disc brake stuff off and use you mustang brake hardware , then slide your stock axles in it.

I have one in my 86 notch, with 15x8 Draglites (5.5bs) & 255/60R15's no concerns. You have to change some things to run the disc brake rear. See below:

I think it's beneficial to swap to the disc rear, but guys have ran into problems with pedal efforts and braking performance. So you have to swap the booster, proportioning valve, master cylinder, and then change the rear hoses. That list is complete. One thing I did was remove the traction control module, but it fits good.
 
well this is going into a mainly track only car with some street cruising with manual brakes and steering.....I have Aerospace drage brakes on the front end..
