Do new mustang brakes fit?

[eclipse420ags]

Did some research and couldnt find anything. There is a 05-09 mustang sitting in a local junkyard with nice aluminum 2 piston calipers. I was wondering if these could some how bolt up to our cars. I always here about the "cobra" calipers but didnt know if there was a differnce with these. Thanks guys any help would be appreciated.

I put this in the noob section bc I'm a noob when it comes to brakes.

You would need special brackets to make them work. They are same brakes that the Baer brake company sells. Thats what I have on my car. Same goes for! the mustang cobra,svx and C5 and C6 corvette I believe.

Where could I find these brackets? Or would I have to make them myself?

The factory "big brake upgrade" for Mustangs will require 18" wheels. I tried to lend my 17" RPF1s to a '08 Mustang with the big brakes and we tried to get them on but the caliper bracket was in the way. He mentioned that the 'upgrade' that he had from the factory was identical to the same big brakes on the cobra and maybe the 5.0 for this generation mustang.

Find the measurements of all dimensions somewhere on this site for all of our upgrade options that are known and go to the junkyard with your notes and a caliper (measuring tool). If the measurements match then grab them!

I have Mustang calipers on my Talon. I made my own brackets. You can go to
FHSWedge to get all brackets and ass for the install

You will have to have at least 17" rims on your car. I would call baer and ask them if they could sell you the brackets. You will perhaps need to change the rotors too and hub rings are needed for a 2g. I would call baer.

I used 3000gt rims with 12" crown vic rotors. It was a tight fit, I had to grind the fins off of the calipers.
