I came across this great deal on mach 1 rear brakes and rotors. My question is this I have stock 5 lug lenght axles with drums. I was wondering if I bought these rotors and calipers what I had to do to mount them onto my rear. I also have Lincoln mark 7 rotors up from with stock spindle, Can I just mount up the mach 1 calipers to this rotor?
Please Help because I dont have a long time until this deal is gone.
Thanks, Brandon Hey

You'll need brackets to bolt the calipers to on the axle. I'm not sure what the mounting difference is between the mach 1 and cobra brakes, they are basically the same front brakes but the mach 1 rears are smaller.

So if he sells me all of the mounting brackets for the rear they will bolt on? From what I have heard I have to go and get 94+ spindles and hubs to run the brakes on the front is this true?
Thanks

You'll need the sn95 spindle and hubs if they don't come with the brakes. I'm not really sure on the rear but you'll probably need axles the same length as the mach 1's. Maybe someone else can confirm that.

Yeah I have the ranger axles in there now which are the same lenght as the stock 4 lug but they are 5 lug thats the only difference.

You will need 94-98 rear axles along with the 94/95 front spindles.

The best site for brake upgrade info is http://mjbobbitt.home.comcast.net/mustang/5lug.html

There are two possiblities, 1. You might be able to use the Mach 1 caliper brackets if you cut them and mount them on the other side of the axle flange. Thats what I'm planning to do with the Cobra M2300M kit so that I can run 9" wheels in the rear. This gives you most of the offset that you need to line the calipers up. 2. Use North Cobra brackets, but you will have to get 11.65" rotors if the Mach 1's are smaller than the Cobra's.
