It wouldnt be a bad idea to upgrade the hoses while you're in there. If your GT still has the original brake lines, a set of stainless steel braided ones are a good and cost effective mod. I think its around $80 bucks for a pair of front stainless steel brake lines. Just my .02 cents.

Yep, those will work fine.
Same price as ordering from MM but with free shipping
The Cobra, Mach1, Bullitt calipers use a fine thread banjo bolt which is M10x1.0 (that kit comes with both)
You should be set !

If the other studs are good you can just change out the broken one.
Take a hammer and knock them backwards (be careful if you have ABS so you don't damage the exciter ring)
Put the stud in from the back and use washers as spacers, flip the lug nut around (flat side) and tighten to pull the stud back flush with hub in back.
Spin the hubs, if they sound good and don't have any ruff spots you won't need to change them out.
(these are torqued to 225-250 FT LBs and need a large socket to replace)

alright...the reason why i would change them all is because the lugs get stuck on the way down and im getting new wheels and new lug nuts so i dont wanna ruin them
