I'm planning to buy a front Cobra brake package to put on my GT in the very near future. I want to buy it from buyfordracing.com cause they have by far the best price. My question is will I need a caliper mounting bracket to have them installed correctly or just the correct banjo bolts. Because kits from other sites include "caliper mounting brackets" and I just don't know if I will need them or not. Probably a n00b question but I just want to make sure I have everything I need when i get ready to put them on.

The front wheels shouldn't/don't need a different bracket for the larger calipers. At least, I certainly don't remember putting any on when I did my brake upgrade...went to the 13" setup on my front wheels...it was a Mach 1 kit but I understand the Mach and the Cobra are the same thing basically.

They may be referring to the rears...a larger bracket is needed out back to hang those calipers.
