No, SN95 spindles only.

Ypu realize ypu are missing the mounting brackets...and it's difficult to find those without the calipers you already have.

Didn't he say earlier, that he looted the brackets with the calipers?

5L5... Do both of these calipers use the same brackets? And what are the respective part numbers for these calipers?

Rotors and brake lines you can buy new from Napa. They are pretty cheap

I know you mentioned that you wanted to keep your original brake booster but I'm not sure you'll be able to and like the result. Pretty much everyone who's tried it has complained about a really hard brake pedal and eventually went to the SN95 booster or the 93 Cobra booster.

I'd like to keep my booster as well. Shoehorning a larger booster past the strut tower in my 86 is the stuff nightmares are made of.

13" rotors.

1994-1995 Cobra is basically your model since those are 38mm piston calipers. means you have to use a PITA 94/95 cobra 15/16" MC uless you want to use the 1" 1993 cobra MC and live with a slightly stiffer pedal

That's basically your instruction manual and parts list if you want rear disks. Out back, depending on what width wheels you want, you have the option of modifying the brackets or purchasing brackets to keep the stock fox offset out back

Check out the sticky at the top of the tech forum on brake upgrades as it covers a lot of details commonly asked.

5L5...... nice link.... the front and brake booster with m/c seems the easier part of the install.... im probably just going to buy the kit for the rear... mainly for all the small pieces, lines and cables, axles, and e brake stuff....

now about wheel seizing.... i want to run some cobras maybe but for budget and availability i was thinking about 96 gt wheels... not the triangle style on the v6 but the ones similar on the gt.. would those fit without rubbing the body kit? i dont plan on lowering it just maybe adjustable shox and stock replacement springs from cj pony parts...

also why to i have to weld the adjuster in the rear?

THANKS 5L5.....
