is this for the rear? If so you can go with the dr. diff 11.7" kit with cobra calipers

I have Dr. Diff's 13" fronts with 4 piston calipers and his 11.7" Cobra caliper rears on my 73 Cuda. Along with Hydroboost my car stops so much better. Too much stopping power actually, I can't even heel toe anymore the brakes are so sensitive. I think I may need to adjust the Hydroboost.

Rylis, what wheels are you using that fit the 13" fronts? I know the YO wheels won't fit so I'm curious as to what does.

I am currently using a pair of Enkei PF01's which are my rear rain wheels and a 1 inch adapter for the fronts.
I used these to measure for a set of custom backspace forged 1 piece wheels

Yes this is for the rear for now but might be willing to use complete kit. Just figured someone would have a nice kit that would be known to fit an original rear with sway bar. Do these Cobra calipers have writing on them? Sure would not want a caliber that said cobra showing thru my wheel.

they are just a black caliper which I like, I can't see it being even close to hitting the rear sway bar, I'm not sure how any kit would, bu then again I never owned a cuda
