My 1995 GT needs front brakes. I put new rotors and pads on, but could not bleed the right front caliper. The bleed screw is, in a word, screwed. I PB Blasted it several times, rounded off the corners, then got a pair of vise grips on it. No dice. I drove it to Goodyear and they said it most likely would snap off and I'd have to replace the caliper. I can do that much cheaper than they could, so I drove it home.

This is not a track car, so I'm thinking of doing the 99+ PBR upgrade, but can't find the step by step guide I saw once. Search engine brings up every mention of PBR, which is not helpful. Could someone post that link, please. BTW, I know theCobra upgrade is better, but I just.did buy new slotted rotors all the way around and don't want to dump them.

TIA

Found this guide online:

Ford Mustang: Mustang Tech: Brakes: Low Budget PBR brake upgrade

I do have an extra pair of front 99+ PBR two-piston calipers with 94-95 stainless-steel brake lines. If you're interested, PM me and we'll talk.

I'd already ordered some calipers and lines. I appreciate it, though. I looked through the for sales section and didn't see anything. I know a lot of people have stuff stashed, just like I do
