01 GT that may have cobra brakes on the rear, I'm not sure.
There is a huge metal bracket with a rubber wheel. I was going to remove them, but I was afraid the bolts would be too long. Is it okay to throw this bracket away, or do I need shorter bolts?
(Sorry about the size, but I just got a new 15MP camera!)
So many surprises when I play with this car... The previous surprise was stock banjo bolts on stainless steel brake lines on the front calipers. They don't work, since they are too long and hit the back of the piston. This prevents you from putting new pads on, and stops the flow of brake fluid. I'll make a new post in the future when I have better pics. Maximum Motorsports is quite specific to not use the stock bolts. Bondurant used them for years... Must have been fun to break the pads in!
