It all comes down to a bracket.

About the parking brake, I can't imagine that Ford would change the style, seeing as how they have used it for years and it would cost too much to change. Not to mention it gets the job done.

Now that the rear caliper sits on the forward side of the disc instead of the rear, would probably make a big difference in how it is pulled!

No, the 2005 GT caliper bolt pattern is about 1" wider than the Fox or SN95 pattern. The Cobra PBR calipers are a much simpler design, and are alot lighter. You CAN use the 12.4" diameter 2005 GT rotor on an early drum brake hub with the COBRA calipers on 65-73 cars. As you already know the 13" rotor and caliper is a straight bolt on for SN95 cars. I have kits to put 13" Cobra brakes on early Mustangs.

I'd love to see a screenshot of what the forum looked like in 2005.

This is probably one of the oldest threads I've seen in a while. Pretty sure when I asked this question I was daily driving an 03 GT and my fox was sitting in a garage still equipped with fox-style brakes and an AOD.

Nope. Would require adapter brackets. Easier to just go with GT 2-piston calipers or cobra 13” stuff on sn95 spindles
