where do you get caliper brackets - LMR?

Sorry to jack the thread.

Can you buy new brackets and then run cobra rotors with GT calipers? Reason I ask is because I just bought everything to redo the brakes on the cobra and wanted to give the rotors to my younger brother for his 96 GT.

Rears yes, fronts no.

What do you currently have? I reccomend the SVE kit to anyone looking to do this.

I have been searching for the answer to this question for months. I did Cobra brakes on my GT and my passenger front bracket needs to be replaced, I cant find Cobra ones anywhere. ANY insight would be great!

you need the brackets. the calipers are completely different in the way they mount to the bracket.

 

[Slykin]

G36 is correct. If i'm not mistaken the GT caliper is actually bigger than the Cobra caliper. Completely different setup.

brackets are hard to find for a fair price short of a junkyard from what I have heard. I think it was advanced that could get them new but it wasn't for cheap

I said it before and will say it again. the SVE kit from latemodel restoration is probably the best deal for anyone who wants to do this.

if you want to try and use junkyards, you can get some from a bullitt or a mach as well. though those will be hard to find.

For the front all you need is the cobra calipers, rotors and brake lines. If you are looking for just the rear brackets you can by a bracket kit from Ford Racing. Here's a link http://www.latemodelrestoration.com...ng-Ford-Racing-Rear-Brake-Caliper-Bracket-Kit. I agree with G36 though, the SVE kit from LatemodelRestoration.com is the best option.
