Upgrading to Cobra brakes. Need some wisdom.

**** I know i spelled "brakes" wrong in the title****


Before anyone flames me, I did do a search but didn't find what I'm looking for. However if you know of/can find a link to a past thread, please post it.

Anyways...

I have access to some Cobra part cars and would love to upgrade my current crappy brakes (96gt). So I need 2 things from the folks here at Stangnet:

1. A parts list of everything I need to make this work.

and...

2. What items should I buy "new" and not use the used.

Thanks in advance!

I bought mine here - www.performancepartsinc.com

You can also buy the kit from Ford Racing from a dealer in MN that sells them for around $390 from what I can remember.

bought mine for $400 but they came with crappy OEM rotors that just rusted like crap. You need everything stated above, except you dont NEED stainless steel lines. you can just use any stock off a 99+
