Pretty straight forward as far as it goes.

You'll need:

PBR calipers (Cobra, Bullitt, Mach 1 )
13" rotors
Cobra spec brake lines
Caliper brackets/hangers & hardware
Brake pads

I hope this helps!

Did my 96gt like the others said calipers,rotors,brackets, pads, lines. i added ss brake lines(front and Back) to mine and hawk blue pads; kept the GT Calipers in the rear with NEW ss Lines.

I actually replaces the rear gt calipers with new ones car had 200k figured might as well replace it

not sure wasnt able to find anyone that produced them i Had MM ones on the front; cost me $90 to take my old rear lines to Guy in Pacheco/concord trying to find the name and number but duplicated them in SS looked just as good if not better quality than MM

I recently had a set of SS lines made by Classic Tube, when I ordered them I had them make the lines to fit 94/95 lines.
