Bought some 5 lug spindles with curved arms so I'm sure of them being 94/95 units but the calipers and brackets I was told are Baer cobra style using the same pad but being pad guided and not pin. Also they say one which I'm aware that pbr makes their calipers. Took some pics just want to know if anyone has actually used and owned these.

Also want to know what lines you used

The caliper looks similar ones used on C4 Corvettes. The eBay link below shows a set that appears to be the same as your set:

After seeing them in person that's exactky what I thought. Bought them anyways and ran the part numbers in the fins and came back to a thread on corral that confirmed them as cobra calipers so I'm all confused now

Those are the first dual piston calipers Ford had PBR supply, these were used on the 93 Cobra R.

If you don't have the hardware for the calipers to mount to the brackets, you will need:
http://www.americanmuscle.com/front-disc-brake-hardware-9404cobra.html

For the brake hoses I would recommend:
http://www.maximummotorsports.com/MM-Stainless-Brake-Hose-Kit-1979-93-Mustang-with-SN95-calipers-front-P1341.aspx

Incidentally, these are the same calipers as was used on the Corvettes.

I think you have a set of corvette calipers that the bracket was modded to fit 12" rotors on a CMC road race car. See the two sets of bolt holes in the mounting bracket.

This was done a lot by the CMC guys who had a 12" front brake ruleand 16" wheel rule. They would cut down a set of 13" cobra rotors. I've got a set in my garage if you need some.
