  1. Mustang PBR front brake bolt question

    I have a Mk 4 with Mustang PBR brakes. I have mixed up some hardware and am unsure about the 4 bolts needed to attach the FRONT CALIPERS TO THE SPINDLES.
    I suspect they are the black M 12 X 1.75 bolts with hexagonal heads and dried red thread locker on the threads. They are 1.5 inches long.
    Also, PLEASE CONFIRM CORRECT TORQUE. The manual mentions 95 lb ft., but I searched the bolt torque table in the back of the manual and M 12 x 1.75 are listed at 61 lb ft. Please confirm both specifications. ...
  2. Front brakes and rear end installed

    by , 12-23-2011 at 04:23 PM (The Wrenchette: A Girl Buils a Roadster)
    The day after I installed my front shocks, Koni sent a recall alert. Thankfully my date codes were easy to access and were outside of the affected date range, so I was good to go. I'm not very far along in the build and haven't bolted many parts on, so it would suck to have to unbolt the parts that I [I]just[/I] put on and send them back. So the build continues.

    I got my front brake calipers assembled, which was easier to do on the workbench.
