Default converting calipers

so for everyone with a 96-98 mustang you can change ur calipers with 99 and newer and they are dual piston calipers just make sure u get the right pads rotors are all the same im not sure about the caliper bracket if u need a new one or not but the dual piston calipers are a lot nicer than the single piston and another thing is if ur gonna buy the 50 dollar rotors from autozone spend the extra 9 dollars for the drilled and slotted from summit

Dang that was hard to read and gave me a head ache. Please type with punctuation with periods, commas, and such so you don't have one big run on sentance that gives a person thats trying to read the nonsence a head ache.

No offence, but type so you can read what the heck your trying to say.

drilled and slotted rotors do nothing for street performance, they are purely for looks and in some cases reduce stopping distances.

I don`t think that the newer calipers are that great. My `00GT dosen`t stop that great. When I get some green, I`m going to upgrade my stockers

Only the '94-'98's are SN95s. There is a different designation for the '99-'04's. I know the prefix is SN (Sport/North America), but I can't remember what the three digit number is.
