Changing brake sizes on 9"

[Beercules]

I've seen a few people ask questions about how hard it is to change brake sizes on a 9" axle, or something thereabouts.
(I'm changing diff gears and remembered to get a picture.)

For brakes that fit a 15" rim (slicks). You just need to get this piece from someone (like currie)

and rotors / maybe pads for a 2010 mustang gt (stock caliper still fits). Watch the thickness of the rotors, some are too thick for the caliper/ mount.

If you want to stay with the larger brakes, I'm pretty sure you can use the stock piece on the stock axle.

The 3rd picture is of the panhard relocation where I had to clearance a bit for the stock shock reservoir for 15" wheels.

Good pic on the clearance.
I’ll know soon as the Strange 9” and 12.19” Wildwoods on way.
On my Moser 9” ends they have a nice bracket to keep stock brakes and ABS. 3 years ago they were the only ones that the ‘13-14 larger 13.8” tears worked with, all others were for ‘05-12 smaller brakes.
Wildwood also had a nice 12.88” option but the 12.19” will allow me to run 15s instead of 16/17” and they are still 4-piston upgrade over stock ugly one piston.
