13 disc brakes on a classic

[latamud]

These have been out for a few months but for those that didn't know. Mustangsteve came out with a kit to mount 94-04 Cobra 13" rotors onto existing classic Mustang hubs. You can even use the drum brake hubs. The kit calls for Cobra calipers and rotors, and the Mustangsteve adapter brackets. These work on Mustangs 64-73. He also has a Cobra rear disc swap kit too.

I've been working on my own 13" upgrade to the Granada disc brakes swap. I have some parts at the machine shop. What i started with is a 13" Cobra rotor, and will combine that as a slip fit on the inner side of the Granada rotor hub. I'll have to make an adapter bracket to mount the Cobra Calipers on the Granada spindle. Pics to follow soon.

fyi- did you complete your absentee vote??

Huh? :confused:

Huh? :confused:

I was wondering if anyone would notice. You gotta look at the pics. You gotta hand it to the Intel guys, attention to detail. Those were for local election, sheriff, city council etc. I don't know enough about what's going on back home to care. And, I only lived there 8 months before enlisting so I'm not attached to the area. Can anyone figure where I'm from, other than Old Blue?
