    Here's a Rear Disc setup that you can run with those 9" housing ends. It also still incorporates the emergency brake. It's the same kit I went with for my 88 and it only cost me $385. That's about $425 cheaper than what a Aerospace, Willwood, etc. setup will cost you.

    Not required. North Race Cars now makes a bracket that allows you to use GT/Cobra calipers with GT rotors and clear 9" ends.

    Well, these were $99 shipped to me from snoopstang on turbomustangs.com. He sells them and also posts on numerous sites under the same name.


    BTW, you should of just had Rodeheaver's build you a rear. He did mine for under $1,700, which included the brakes.

    Cool, but will the exhaust clear those?
    I may go with the CHE brace.
    Then again many people are running no brace with no problems.

    From what I have read, yes. I'm not running tailpipes though, hell, I'm not even running a muffler. My 3-1/2" downpipe is just going to dump just behind the front passenger tire.

    I also just saw in MM&FF I think a company that came out with an under axle brace setup.
