you can get all you need for the 13" front swap for around $400 shipped from buyfordracing.com

get the mach1 calipers, they're cheaper but the same.

I did that for the front of my `97 and they work great, came with SS braided lines, calipers, brackets, OE pads, Brembo rotors, banjo bolts, and crush washers. Swap was very easy, you just need to provide some brake fluid and bleed the brakes when you are done.

they sell the kit for the rear also, $175, but that does require removing the axles to swap the caliper brackets, so the install is a bit more involved since you have to pop the diff cover off and drain/replace the diff gear fluid.
