I am considering there sn95 brake kit its kinda pricy.But I like the fact that its all in one kit with out having to go junk yard hunting and end up with something thats worn out.

well flippn through my new 50resto book I found a "1999-04 rear brake bracket kit" it includes .........."production 11.65 rotors, cailper mounting brackets, moan brackes, dust shields, and dust shield bolts." The price is 174.95 for the kit and I spotted some 1999-04 cobra cailpers which include the pads for 224.95 I called 50 resto in asked if the bracket kit and cailpers would fit on my 89 fox they said it would be fine if I picked up the sn94/95 5 lug axles he also said it woudlnt change my width at all........ if this is true thats around 650 plus there flat 15 shipping fee.

1. is it ture i can just slap some sn 5 lug axles and be okay?
2. there 1994-04 moser axles go for 250 28spline or 31 spline which 1 do i choose?

from what i know sn axles are a lil longer, so youd have to get thinner rear tires.. 28 spline is the stock axles not unless youve upgraded your rear end to fit 31 spline..

my buddy ran those northracecar brackets on his fox and im going to be buying them soon too..im pretty sure the sn95 axles are longer so i say by the north brackets and and buy some better fox length 5 lug axles. sometimes its better to pay a little more for what you want

what bracket did you guy go with the sn95 or cobra bracket? what exactly is the difference besides able to run the 11.65 inch rotor. And for you guys running these brackets what width tire are you running in the rear. i would at least like to run a 17x9 without my tires pokn out.

I got the sn95 cobra brackets, they are larger to space the calipers out further so you can run the larger rotor.

I'm running 17x9's with 275/40's in the picture above on my notch, perfect fit.
