Will these work on SN95 spindles? Do I just have to get 13 inch rotors for these to work with the SN 95 stuff?

if you have 94+ up spindles, they will work. and yes you will need 13" rotors. I have a ppi 10th anniversary cobra brake kit on my 94 and everything fit right up

could you tell me all the parts you used on the front?

I was going to use '03 cobra calipers, '03 banjo bolts, fox body ss lines, sn95 spindles/hubs, SVO mastercylinder w/ 2 port conversion, and I am still dreaming up by rear combo.

What rotors should i use? Aftermarket stuff? Which brand? THX

I just used all the oem stuff they sent me. the kit was 435 shipped, and included oem red calipers (but you can get the black ones), brembo rotors, stock rubber brake lines (you can use them with an adapter, or use the foxbody SS ones), crush washers, and banjo bolts. you will also need at least 17" wheels to clear them.

Don't use that MC with the Cobra front stuff.

Decide on your rear brakes first and then pick a MC. I would just go with SN95 rears (either GT or CObra) and in that case i would use a 94-95GT/V6 MC and booster or a 94-95 Cobra MC and booster

Yeah I really want sn95 cobra rears so I can get the vented rear rotors, is there any part list out there for the cobra stuff? it is really hard to find in a yard around here.

Do a search on here for Matt90GT, or to go his web site: http://sn95brakes.cjb.net/

He's the ****in man for brakes. He really knows what he is talking about.

Also take GTphreak's advice and check out PPI for the front kit. I did the same. It couldn't be easier, all the parts you need, excluding spindles, hubs, and MC. But before you install everything, make sure your dental insurance policy is current, because you will be chompin on the sterring wheel the first couple of times you hit the brakes.

Get some OEM Ford rotors. the newer ones (I think 01+) are made by Brembro which are better than the previous years. Mine are from a '95 Cobra and they work for me!
