Default Brake question...

OK I have a 95 cobra, 13" brakes. I have some Gt brakes I want to put on, to be able to fit my pro-stars. My question is. Will my bearings fit with the Gt rotors? and will my brake lines be ok with the gt calipers? What all am i going to need to complete the Cobra-to-Gt brake swap?...

Thanks,
Cody

cody your rotors are a floating type of rotor,the bearings are sealed in your front hub,you only need to take the 13 inch rotor off and install the smaller gt rotor,caliper and caliper bracket,your lines should fit bolth gt and cobra calipers

Typical Ryan... your so last week man. I allready have it running and tuned...

And Mars Im not planning on selling the brakes at the moment. Im not sure how big a difference there is going to be at the track. A few people have told me there is going to be a problem with the GT brakes fading away at the track... If its not a big deal, Then i may decide to get rid of them. But Leonard has allready sent me a Pm about them... I will let u guys know once i get to the track and see how big a difference there is.
