Cobra front brakes- differences from standard 5.0's

Post by phorty »

Obviously, the rears are disc, but what about the fronts. I know the rotors are different to accomadate a different offset wheel, but what else? Are the rotors a different diameter? What about the calipers and brake pads? Thanks in advance.

other than the offset rotor , I am pretty sure there is no other difference in the front.

I went to Pep Boys to pick up some Hawk pads. They had some for a regular fox in stock, but mine has a different part # due to having four wheel disc. I though it was the same, too.
