Alright the fronts are done new 13" rotors with 03 Cobra Calipers. Rears are where im having trouble. Im using 11.65" rotors in the rear with 03 cobra caliper brackets and calipers. My rear end is out of a 93 Cobra and Im using Moser axles from from a sn95 mustang. What seems to be the probelm is the rotor is just to big and the bracket wont go down far enough to line the holes up. with out the rotor the bracket will bolt up fine, im assuming im going to have to do something with the anti moan bracket but have no idea what!

I think i know the issue, but hard for me to guess or just speculate. Really need to see

Ah what a second


Did you change out the axle brackets? Or are you just trying to put SN95 cobra rotors and calipers onto the stock cobra axle brackets?

If so, that will not work. The parts are all different.

You need this

Ford Racing M-2300-M - Ford Racing Mustang GT Rear Brake Bracket Kits - Overview - SummitRacing.com

And then sell off what you don't use.

Appreciate it Mustang 5l5, i picked up the kit at Summit today "I live 10 min away from the Tallmadge store" and its exactly what I needed thanks!

And 90lxcoupe, Im aware the sn95 axles are longer, appreciate the heads up though. I had to use them in order to run the 18" Shelby razor wheels i have on my car. But again good lookin out.
