    Tomorrow, the rears will be attempted. I gotta mock it up with the 11 5/8 rotors and figure what axles I need. Then it goes down to Donination Chassis for a 31 spline carrier. I just dont want to crawl under this thing again. So I figured I would have somebody else do it for me. But with having a fox and going to Cobra brakes, I am not sure of the length axle I would need.

    What Cobra brakes???

    If you are talking 93, it the SN95 / Turbo Coupe width (3/4" longer).

    Might be what you need here......

    If you want to stay fox width, I beleive its north coast racecars sells a braket to do that.

    Lookin' good Rob. Stopping is a good thing when you have that much HP. I read somewhere that the Cobra brake system hasn't changed from 1994 to 2004 - it was that good.

    Martian, I bought the M-2300-M kit from summit. It came with brackets. Its the kit to convert an SN-95 to cobra discs. Cones with the 11 5/8 rotors, brackets and anti moans. Dust shields too. I am thinking I need SN-95 axles. If thats the case then its no problem. Get the 31 splines and go.

    Silvernotch, you always have a zamboni problem. HAHAHAHAHA

    94Cobra, thanks man. Stopping is always good. Cant wait to do the rears.

    SV, yeah, you got that right. HAHAHAHAHA
