Default SN 95 brakes on fox

Got a 86 gt and wanna go with the sn-95 setup but wanna upgrade to cobra calibers and rotors. What parts do I need to get to do this and what all involved . Was gonna get new rims but I know I wanna go sn-95 setup soon so might as well just get 5 lug now. Thanks

for the front you need the sn95 spindles, hubs, dust cap, dust plate (usually all comes assembled), adapters for the soft lines or maximum motorsports has SS brake lines to convert, stack of 5/8 washers or switch to sn95 ball joints.

are you sticking discs in the rear too or drums?

You have to have moog balljoints for the sn95, a marine guy around here is doing it and thats the only part i really remember other then sn95 spindles

never heard of the moog ball joints, what are those? ....i just stuck two washers on each side and that was it, heard the sn95 ball joints were also a direct swap.

well 80+% of breaking is done by the front, i didn't want to bother with rear discs as it's alot more involved and not all that worth it really, i just stuck 2 ranger driver side axles and drums in there and i was done. if you wanna go rear disc you need 94-98 GT axles, brackets, master cylinder, and a 3-2 port PV conversion... new hard lines and soft lines ...i think that's it.

by the way 94-95 spindles keep the stock track, 96-98 adds 8mm per side, you can use V6, GT or cobra (i think, not sure about the cobras).
