Fits Original V8 Drum Brake Spindles and Hubs!!!

This is for those running larger wheels on their Mustang. Don't spend alot of money to upgrade your drums to the 11" diameter factory stock discs when you can install these for about the same money and have
HUGE STOPPING POWER !!!

The difference in stopping power and fade resistance between these brakes and original Mustang 11" factory disc brakes, or even the popular Granada disc brake swap conversion is phenomenal !!!  COBRA 13" brakes are lightest factory option available and have great stopping power, plus they LOOK GREAT !

This retrofit kit, as with other MustangSteve products, uses easily replaceable and obtainable FORD parts for anything that could ever wear out. A BIG PLUS if you ever need a brake part in a hurry!

  • Utilizes your original 65-73 drum brake spindle and hub (discard the drum and use the old hub).
  • You DO NOT have to remove the original spindle from the car.
  • You DO NOT have to have the front end realigned after installation.TRACK WIDTH REMAINS AS STOCK.
  • Requires 16" or 17" wheels, 17" preferred. Wheel must be able to clear the larger calipers.  Any wheels that clear stock Cobra/MACH I/BULLITT  brake setup will fit as these duplicate the dimensions exactly of a 94-04 Cobra. 
  • Don't want late model Ford factory wheels? This design lets you have the BIG BRAKES and run many different aftermarket wheels, if they have the correct backspacing and will clear the caliper.
  • NO WHEEL SPACER REQUIRED, at all!  Of course, the late model 17x8 Mustang wheels will fit as well using a billet aluminum 1" spacer. (The deeper offset of the 94-04 Mustang wheel requires the spacer, NOT the brake setup)  Normal fitment is 17x8 with 4.5" to 4.75" backspacing. BEST fitment is 17x7 with 4.5" backspacing.  Refer to Mustang Monthly Magazine's article on my 66 fastback with these COBRA brakes and 17x7 narrowed Bullitt wheels.
  • Positioning the large rotor and caliper as far inboard as possible drastically reduces the effect of the rotor's unsprung weight and reduces gyroscopic effect on initial cornering effort.
  • PURCHASER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING WHEEL FITMENT FOR YOUR VEHICLE!!!!!!!!!!  American Racing Torque Thrust II wheels will NOT clear the calipers unless a 1/4" spacer and longer studs are used. Torque Thrust M wheels do clear. I am not aware of any other 17" wheels that do not fit, but I do not have access to every wheel out there, so check clearance before you purchase wheels.
