in the front you just need 94/95 spindles/hubs, then you can get cobra calipers and rotors and they bolt on up front.

in the rear you need 5 lug axles, caliper brackets, rotors, calipers, pads, anti-moan braces, brake hoses, and brake line adapters (or cut/re-flare your existing line).

You also need a disc brake master cylinder, and a better brake booster, all of that is discussed at the sites above.


my 89 notch with 5 lug cobra brakes has amazing stopping power that doesn't ever fade.

How much did the whole setup cost you? Where the parts hard to find? I dont realy understand the whole spindle mix up. If I use 17 x 8.5 rims do i need sn95 spindles or no?

Thanks any help

without the spindles you can't put sn95 brakes on the car, they're what the brakes bolt to.

I put about $1200 into my brakes, and another $700 into the wheels and tires, roughly.

Can someone tell me what size rims would i be able to fir once I do a 5 lug conversion. i will most likely get 18" just because i will do a cobra breaks conversion later on, or will 17"s do just fine? I want my car really low with out the rub

So i need to know what size rims (width) in relation to 18x9 or 18x10 and what offset will i need (24mm or 34mm) and what backspacing. And is it ok to go staggered with 18x10 in the back. Shit im having a hard time understanding what offset is and how it effects the car and the looks)

I want to get the widest possible rims in the back so i can have a nice wide lip but i don't want it to rub. My car is already low (steeda springs cut 1.5 coils)

Thanks again for any info
Im new to the mustang mod world, even tho this my 3rd stang. Im sure you guy will see allot of me here with stupid questions.

Thanks again

if you get the axles and rear brake brackets from www.northracecars.com you can fit any wheel meant for a 94-04 mustang, so you won't need to worry about offset.

the only thing to worry about is wheel/tire width after that.

with ford 'b' springs, and 17x9 bullitt knock-offs with a 275/40R17 Nitto 555 tires on the back, I had to roll my outside fender lips because they would have rubbed.

Any bigger and you'll need to do something about the quad shocks (flip them and remove them) and maybe pound on the inner fender with a big hammer.

If i get the full 5 lug conversion do i still need to get the axles from this place or will the stock sn95 axles work.
And also if the offset is 24mm compared to 34mm wont that make the wheel stick out more and more chance to rub. Also like i said I want a realy fat lip on the back rims, so if i get the smalled offset will that rim have bigger lip?
I dont mind rolling the fenders, and 275 is good width for me so i dont need to go any bigger.

Also you have 17" on your car. Will 18" work on this body or should i stick with 17"

Thanks

So to understand it right. The stock sn95 axles are longer then the ones from that website www.northracecars.com and there for wont allow winder rim in the back. Once i get the axles from the above site then it should be ok. And when i do get the axle from the above site I have to get the caliper bracket?

Thanks for all your help,

ranger axles with the north race set works too. 295/35/18 18x10 rim. pretty much same as sn95 run. but would run 285/35 just for added clearance.
