Which front brakes fit on a 33 hot rod? Can I fit Brembo 6-piston calipers and discs from a 2015+mustang (disregarding rim size/rim clearance)?

Are the Brembo calipers fixed mounted to the spindle? The “standard” caliper are “floating/sliding” on pins but the Brembo are not?

I, too, am a fan of Brembo brakes. I can't tell you if or which model fit a hot rod, but I can tell you that the Wilwoods do fit and are quite good. I have the Wilwoods on my roadster and am very happy with them. Just my opinion.

The hubs are, I understand, based on the sn95 mustang platform. anything newer will probably require custom hardware. Something like this should bolt right up:

I use the 'Cobra R' Brembo fronts on my Gen III Coupe - I presume our cars use the same spindles but I'm not sure.
