8.8 Disc Brakes

If keeping 4 lug you can use turbo coupe disc brakes, if going 5 lug use 94+ discs

i have 5 lug and all, all i really want is the disc brakes

You'll need the axles, anti-moan brackets, caliper mounts, calipers brackets, calipers, soft lines, pads, rotors, and e brake cables from a 94 to 98 car. The 99+ cars are even wider than the 94-98's.

ok il be looking for one thanks

you can keep fox axles and use sn brakes if you buy the correct axle tube brackets

Yes, but it's cheaper to buy the stock SN setup instead of the NRC brackets, and then have to buy new axles too. Plus with stock backspacing wheels they sit a little more flush with the fender and look much better IMO.

he's running 5.27... I'm sure he's got aftermarket axles

Yeah I did not see that in his sig. I would be willing to bet if you have ford 5 lug drums the NRC brackets and some 94+ brakes is all you need, but why not put some wilwood, ssbc, or aerospace brakes on it?

D'oh - for some reason I was thinking 5.27 gears(didn't read the sig - not sure if that is even a legit ratio or not)

fuck nrc, i wouldnt buy anything from them. however you can get brackets from a guy in pearland on ebay for half the cost or better. you can use c clip axles with that setup too. i also assumed (whether its right or not) that its for a different car

If your going to buy drag brakes, buy the Strange setup. I have had numerous problems on cars with the Aerospace and Willwoods.
