    Just a question, why Baer and not Wilwood or Aerospace Components?

    http://shop.aerospacecomponents.com/4pistonheavydutyfrontprostreetkitmustang70-73.aspx

    I couldn't get the Wilwood site, but I just put some Aerospace front/rear disc's on my Maverick..........although the car is drag only car, fit on the spindles and really saved about 50lbs off the front end. Fit on original spindles, lines hook'd up with their kit...................IMHO

    The mav is gone but i'm still here!
    willwood makes a kit for our cars, all the brazilian guys run Baer brakes. But who knows if they got the same spindles as us. They also run dagger(sp?) wheel, which I love.

    Well, Wilwood makes a direct bolt on kit for our cars as does Aerospace Components..................I guess I don't see any difference from them and Baer.

    i have 13inch rotors and mach one brake caliper setup the one with the horse. same setup as the cobra 13in. i just used a mounting bracket from street and track
    not sure if your talkin bout the baer 13in setup
    you can get it to fit but you have to get mounting bracket from street & track
    they sell the whole kit u need bracket with hardware, steel braided brake line,
    1in spacer if your running 94-04 wheels like bullets
    3in studs for the spacer
    if your running oriiginal offset wheels like the 4 inch back spacing you wont need the
    spacer real good set up i love mine bolted rite up no problems
    the bracket bolts up to your original drum spindle
    if you have granada brakes all ready they also make a bracket to fit 13in rotors
