Do the 'bracket flip'.
Search here, other Stang forums, and google for the term "Bracket Flip".
It will show you how to mod your SN95 brackets to work with Fox axles.

I think that the cut factory brackets are a better setup than the NRC brackets. The NRC stuff is flimsy and vibrate alot so the brakes make a ton of noise with that setup

I used the NRC setup and it's been that way for years, no noise or vibration to complain of.

I'm also not in love with the idea of the brake brackets being cut.
I'd think that a solid piece would be stronger than one cut in half.

I used both kits with out anti moan brackets, the factory stuff didnt make any noise, also, you dont have to cut the bracket in half, you just have to take a section out of it so that it can go over the axle. I'd bet strength would never be a question with either setup. The NRC stuff is a solid piece, but the bracket is also less than half the thickness of the factory stuff.

I use this kit on my 67 mustang with a 8.8 axle. In fact the NRC brackets are much thiner than the ford brackets. I modified the anti moan bracktets
to work with the NRC and no noise or rattle. I drive a few years now, no problems at all.
Here in my link you can see those brackets side by side.. [url]http://212.227.100.192/mustang/cobrabrakes/cobrabrakes.html

Surprised you even found an M-2300-K kit these days. I assumed those sold out a long time ago and were discontinued
