[QUOTE="red95gts, post: 9100443, member: 59589"] Just to clarify, the guy you had make brackets and the guy in that auction are not the same guy. I know of more than a few people who have had problems with the NRC brackets. The brackets I posted are made by a good friend of mine and are the best bang for the buck on the market. They are twice as thick, better designed, and cheaper to boot. I'm not a fan of using C-Clip Eliminators, but these brackets require no mods to be able to run them if you so desire. He's also willing to push the envelope, whereas NRC has been putting the same stuff out for years. 13" rear rotors stuffed in a 15" wheel anyone? 93 Cobra 5-lug conversion without ever cracking open the rear brake lines? You get the idea. He made a custom set like those for my 8.8/9" hybrid rear in my 91 turbo car. The 8.8" rear end had the HUGE 9" tapered bearing ends, which in the past meant you were limited to running some 1970's Lincoln drum brake because there was no available bracketry. I ran SN-95 calipers with an off-the-shelf 94-98 rear rotor and 93 Cobra e-brake cables. Worked beautifully. No C-clips, no leaks - it was a great setup. Just my $.02. When I go 5-lug on my 93, Neighbors' brackets will be on the car. [/QUOTE]
