You have the 96 spindles, rotors, calipers & lines? Yes you can use the Cobra lines, but you will need an adapter fitting for the passenger side where it attaches to the car since all the SN95 lines are smaller on that side than the Fox hard line. Some of the parts stores have them, it is a Weatherhead 7828 fitting. And yes, use the Fox strut to spindle bolts.

I have done the SN95 swap both ways, the first time I used 87-93 hoses but had to flip them side to side and grind down the lip on the caliper that holds the 94-up lines straight. The second time I used 94-95 hoses and cut the passenger side line and double flared a larger fitting on. No other modifications needed, I definitely recommend getting 94-95 hoses. Any other inputs??
