cobra hubs and calipers???

[Daviddc114]

i am wanting to upgrade hubs and calipers, but i am curious,,do the cobra rotors just mount up no problem..and does the traction / abs work perfectly afterwards??? how bad is changing the hubs to the mustang lug pattern?? is there a certain year of hubs that are better?? is it a big job??? thanks!!

cobra rotors fit after a hub swap.
yeah, the abs works fine.

i did search, but i was trying to find out if it was a straight bolt on. I just searched this thread though, i didnt try google :slam

i found this article which is a great write up.

my only problem now is i see there is a relocation bracket needed for the rear, do you guys have any preference which ones to go with? the ones suggested by the post i found are no longer available...

for the fronts, Corvette C4 PBR calipers also work, with Cobra brackets or the Mark VIII spindle holes can be made larger by about 3 mm....I have some if interested

thanks for the link!!! wow those are nice!! im still torn on weather to upgrade to cobra calipers or not. The only reason i would, is because if i am changing the bolt pattern anyway, i might as well change the rotors too.. i think the main reason i think it is a good idea is that there will always be better rotor / caliper options for the mustang setup.. but then on the bad side, if you ever wanted to put the stock wheels back on that would be a whole project!!! The bolt pattern doesn't matter much to me as i am ordering custom wheels so i can get them in either bolt pattern... anyone have opinions on there pros and cons???
