OK after a lot of research and a previous thread on this subject I bought this kit:
Ford Performance Brake Upgrade Kit - M-2300-AA | Levittown Ford (levittownfordparts.com)
The website asks you to put your vehicle specifics in to be sure it fits and it says it does. BUT...
... to get the rear calipers and rotors to fit you also have to buy axles, knuckles, parking brake assemblies, and a slew of small parts to make the e-brake work.
The problem is that the GT e-brakes are manual "pinchers" to the rotor and this kit has rotors machined with an inside drum for shoe type expanding e-brakes. The rotors and calipers won't fit the existing axle and brake hardware as the car comes from the factory. At all.
This is a complete pile of CRAP in my opinion. Unless I am missing something BIG this kit IS NOT compatible with my car.
Has anyone else run across this issue?
It looks like I'll be selling the rear calipers and rotors because the individual parts are going to run upwards of $2500!
