Another brake question...

I don't think so..you are talking about the anti-moans right? The calipers are marked left and right..
Left = Driver and
Right = Passenger side  correct?

thats correct, but i think he means the caliper mount brackets that attach to the axle. i wondered the same thing, but i *think* they are flat anyhow.

did you pull the axles from the 94V6 yourself? so you KNOW they are sn95 length...
how bout a pic with the rotor off

Hey Chuck, these are my lakewood 50/50's can you still tell they are red underneath all the oil from the busted shock? (hint hint...I think I am a candidate for your stock extention brackets..)

I don't know.  It all looks right in the pics.

Just to make sure about the axles, does the center hub on the axles match the rotors ID?

Have you checked the axle  length against some stock 4-lug Tbird axles to make sure they are the proper length?

I was thinking...the brake caliper screws in for pad adjustment right? I am thinking I may need to screw them in..would that make sense? I will measure anyway...

yes they screw in, but from what i see in the pics, they wont screw in that far. plus the sliders are extended pretty far, so screwin the pistons in will recenter the caliper on the bracket more than it aloows the rotor to drop in further.

Hmmm, the brakes I have are supposed to be from a 95GT. I didn't pull them myself so I can't swear thats what they are from. Its just my luck..if you come up with anymore ideas send them my way. Thanks for the help guys...
