I'm about to install the cobra brakes I bought a couple months ago on my 98 gt. I was wondering if I needed the cobra bonjo bolts that are separate from this kit I got.Buy Ford Racing Parts!
These are the bolts.
Buy Ford Racing Parts!
Or can I just use the ones from my car?

I bought mine and they came with the crappy Goodridge SS Lines, which did come with banjo bolts, except the line wouldn't seal correctly and would pee brake fluid when we tried bleeding the brakes. I went to Autozone and one of their off the shelf GM banjo bolts fit the new caliper and my '99 stock hoses.

You need the coarse thread banjo bolts on the red 10th anniversary cobra brakes. Id go to ford and get the ones you need, or just order them from your link.

Your stock gt ones will not work. And yes the goodridge lines blow. I bought the 10th annviersary kit a year or so ago.

Yea I had trouble at the connection to the hard line on both sides. Cranked them down as hard as I could and stripped one side... still wasn't good enough still had a slow leak under hard breaking. So I used Locking pliers and cranked it down even more. They are a Pain in the Ass! That worked though. using the size wrench like.. 8 or 10mm you can't get enough torque on the bolt.
