alright so i have been wanting to paint my calipers and put on some nice slotted/drilled rotors...i start to think about it and i remember my car has been five lug converted before i got it. im not sure what was changed. i think i may have stock calipers on the front but the rotor is obviously from something different. what do you think it is from and are there really any other discs that ford made(other than cobra) that i can put on knowing that it will fit my car correctly(in the caliper but also 5 lug) i was thinking a sn95 rotor set but not sure if the "offset" is the same. let me know thoughts....id really like to put on a big brake kit but dont think i can make that happen

You can make anything happen lol.

Do you have drums in the rear?

Can you get any pictures, as that would help us identify the brake setups alot easier.

drums in rear yes...rear end is built so no its not ranger axles but im really just worried about the fronts right now. im guessing they are lincoln parts or something but im not sure. it looks like they might be the stock calipers. i can also tell you that i changed out the struts when i was doing coilover conversion and the strut mounting holes on the spindles werent the same. the spindles mounting holes were about a half inch farther apart form top to bottom than the struts were so i had to make the holes in the struts go farther up. not sure if that can tell you anything. i will try to get a pic of the caliper though. the brake pads stick out on each side of the caliper and the bolts to hold on calipers mount through them. i just want to get some nice rotors so i need to know if all of them are the same backspacing

took some measurements too...disc is about 11inches, about an inch thick at pad squeezing points, and from the pad squeezing point surface to surface that rim mounts flush to it also about an inch.

have you ever pulled the brakes apart before? if you pulled the rotor off and the wheel studs were on it, there stock style brakes, if you pulled the rotor and the studs stayed on the car there sn style brakes

onesickstang01

no i havent needed to do anything with the brakes. when i did the coilovers i was going to pull the rotors but didnt have time and they were being pretty hard to get off so i figured i would probably have to pull the spindle bolt to pull them so idk

What does the dust cover look like for the bearings? Is it big and sticks out to the face of the wheel? Or is it small and recesses in?

onesickstang01

its big and cant fit a center cap on my bullitts

Then you probably have the Lincoln rotors...
