    Well i finally for my 13" Front brake installed, and now my car looks really funny. I have 18" deep dish fr500 on the rear and with the large brakes up front it makes it look like i don't even have rear brakes.

    What would be my best option to get a larger rear rotor, not needed really for performance more just cause it looks odd with the large size difference.



    BTW: 13" (mach1 in my case) best $400 ever spent on the car braking much better is they look really good.

    the 11.65in upgrade from buyfordracing.com i think its like a $189. it really fills the iside of the rims out nicely. there are a few write-ups that tell you how to do it. I hope you are comfortable removing you axels. dont worry its easy just a little time comsuming. Dont let people tell you the anti moan brackets dont fit because the DO they are routed THROUGH the shock bracket not infront of them like some people think.

    The calipers are the same, but the u-shaped bracket is slightly different. They are $40 each if you want to purchase them from Ford, or you can just open up yours with a grinder slightly.

    Yes the calipers are practically the same some have to grind on the caliper bracket a little. I used 2 washers to move the caliper out a little.
