If I buy a Cobra calper/caliper bracket set, is that all thats needed to convert the fronts? I already have a new set of 13" Rotors, and ebay has a set of cobra calipers with cliper brakets....

the fittings may be different on the hoses, when I converted my `97 I got the kit from buyfordracing.com and it came with chicane SS braided hoses [Confused]

maximum motorsport makes the brake lines that bolt on no problem when converting

What brakes are on the car now? If it's stock you need the spindles from an sn car and either a spacer for the ball joint or change the balljoint to an 94' to 95' so no spacer will be needed

um not everybody puts cobra brakes on foxbodies, I'm fairly sure he's talking about his `97 GT.
