Sorry if I have missed the thread on another forum. Purchase a set of take off's from one of the Super Snake owners, it will come complete including the brake lines. $550-$650 The installation is simple and straight forward- lefty loosy / righty tighty Removal- Disconnect rubber brake line at the hard line, unbolt the two caliper bolts, remove caliper, then remove rotor and dust shield.. Installation- Install dust shield and rotor, bolt on caliper, torque caliper bolts to factory specs, install brake lines, bleed passanger side brake starting with inside bleeder first, then outside. Do the same for driverside... take for test drive and enjoy!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tispco Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 Thanks for the instructions, does anyoen know the part number for the stainless stell brake line set from goodridge? I do not have the part number, but the Goodridge brake lines are not required. They are a nice to have, especially if you are going to the track. I bought a set of Brembos from one of the members here. He reused the dust shields, so I ordered new ones from the dealer. They were about $20 each. I reused the GT500 Brembo calipers, rotors, brake pads (front and rear), and brake lines. One note on the pads, they make a LOT more dust than the stock GT pads.

pottydr Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 I received a tip from our TS Member Alex and followed hie advise, go get some CMAXX Gold brake pads from autozone, very little dust and they grab hard, Also lifetime warranty on the pads, so best of both worlds, Anymore questions I would PM Alex, he knows his stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slbgtsc Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 Just did this upgrade the other day/night and it was very straight forward. I had already upgraded to the braided lines. Have not been able to drive the car yet with the big brakes since my new wheels are not here yet so the car is on jack stands in the garage. I should be rolling again by wednesday.

Goodridge part #12364 for 2005-2009 Mustang W/ABS Shop around, I found them for around $170.00 shipped to my door and they are well worth their weight in gold when it comes to peace of mind and extra stopping power...

07CSM0260 Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I received a tip from our TS Member Alex and followed hie advise, go get some CMAXX Gold brake pads from autozone, very little dust and they grab hard, Also lifetime warranty on the pads, so best of both worlds, Anymore questions I would PM Alex, he knows his stuff I called and checked on these pads and I have a hard time believing they would work for the track. the cost is $35 for the front set. Replacement Brembo's are over $200 from Ford. Even the ceramic pads were only $50. Has anyone used these on the track? Thanks, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
07CSM0260 Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Took a little over an hour to swap. Pretty easy to do. Anyone know about the CMAXX pads on the track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
