Hey Gang,

I'm thinking about upgrading my front brakes once the body is off being painted and was wondering if any of you were running these front brakes?

From what I understand they are basically the Cobra Brakes. Also, my rears are Ford Explorer 11.22" so they are a tad larger than the standard Mustang GT rears.

Steve,

If those are the early (twin piston) PBR style calipers, then yes, I'm running them on my MK-II - I'm not running the factory rotors, mine have been expanded to 13" style with 11.63" (T-Bird) in the rears - No power assist, Jeep 15/16" master.
Car stops on a dime with firm pressure, not hard by any means - appropriate pedal mod done for manual brakes with a Fox pedal box. I do have a "bias" valve for the rears to keep them from locking up first.

Hope that gives you the answer you were looking for . . .

I think you can piece the kit together cheaper and with powder-coated calipers.

Steve,

Those are identical to what I have from a '98 Mustang Cobra. I have '98 Lincoln rears. Stops on a dime but I also have the hydroboost PS/PB setup.
