m-2300-k brake kit

[David Pepiton]

just a question do the rear brake caliper brackets on the frpp kit work with fox length axles or sn95?

i havent been able to find what length axles come in the kit

well i found the part # for the axle in the kit and its a sn95 axle so i guess im stuck using the northracecars.com bracket unless someone knows and alternate rought. keep in mind i already have 2 new ranger axles with arp studs in them.

Do the 'bracket flip'.
Search here, other Stang forums, and google for the term "Bracket Flip".
It will show you how to mod your SN95 brackets to work with Fox axles.

thats great but i actually have a regular customer of mine thats a ford fan as well and he has the NRC brackets at his house. hes gunna sell them to me for $100 he said he just need to dig around for them.

I think that the cut factory brackets are a better setup than the NRC brackets. The NRC stuff is flimsy and vibrate alot so the brakes make a ton of noise with that setup

yeah I could prob make my own out of ar500 for less then $100 in all honesty heck i may use the NRC bracket as a template.

i make target stands as a hobby thats why i have ar500

I used the NRC setup and it's been that way for years, no noise or vibration to complain of.

I'm also not in love with the idea of the brake brackets being cut.
I'd think that a solid piece would be stronger than one cut in half.

I used both kits with out anti moan brackets, the factory stuff didnt make any noise, also, you dont have to cut the bracket in half, you just have to take a section out of it so that it can go over the axle. I'd bet strength would never be a question with either setup. The NRC stuff is a solid piece, but the bracket is also less than half the thickness of the factory stuff.

I use this kit on my 67 mustang with a 8.8 axle. In fact the NRC brackets are much thiner than the ford brackets. I modified the anti moan bracktets
to work with the NRC and no noise or rattle. I drive a few years now, no problems at all.
Here in my link you can see those brackets side by side.. [url]http://212.227.100.192/mustang/cobrabrakes/cobrabrakes.html

Surprised you even found an M-2300-K kit these days. I assumed those sold out a long time ago and were discontinued

its not a kit its just the brackets. I've pieced my own together.
