Caliper reloctaion 13.8 rear kit installed S197

[Mrods]

Installed the rear 13.8 inch brake kit for 05-09. I bought caliper relocation brackets on EBay (ncmustangparts) for $250 CDN delivered. These brackets move your stock caliper to a higher position to accommodate the larger rotor. Picked up 13.8 inch 2013 GT500 rotors for $170. Here's what the install looked like. Huge difference in rotor diameter. And it perfectly compliments my front Brembo kit. So for $420 all in, I was able to upgrade the rear and do this without removing the axles like some other kits require. Essentially, this is a knock off of the Baer Eradispeed kit that retails for about $1,000 CDN. Will let you know how it performs after I bed the new pads in - which are GT500 pads I had kicking around.

I dont even get that comment, but I think we need the wife in the pic now lol

OK, here's the second wife (or is it first???)

Rear rotors have black paint on them and I need to wear it off. So its a little dark in this shot. What is the point of that paint anyways?

They're coated so they don't rust during shipment/warehousing, plus it will stay on where the pad doesn't contact so the hats and edges don't rust.
Looks like a good upgrade. I was shocked at how different my brakes felt after swapping from GT rear rotors to Cobra rear rotors on my '01, had to pull the axles though, lol.
