Default caliper fitment on SN95 spindles

bought SN 95 spindles of a 95 model car, what calipers can I use, I have read that I can use later model with slight grinding of spindle. Does any of the new Mustang brake stuff work? I have 17 x 8 wheels.Thanks

I think you can grind the spindles slightly to make the '99-04 calipers fit. I don't know about '05-present calipers, pretty sure they are different.

you got it. but since you already have 17x8 wheels you should just get the cobra calipers and rotors.

Grinding will be needed on 99-04 PBR Calipers, but no grinding will be needed if you choose Cobra, Mach1, or Bullitt Calipers.
