Putting Front Rotors on the Rear

 I have installed mustang rotors on all four corners of 2511. The Mustang  rotor is actually a little larger than the front OEM rotor but that was not a problem on my car. The Mustang rotor is smaller than the rear OEM rotor and on my installation resulted in the brake pads actually overhanging the rotor edge. This results in part of the brake pad not contacting the rotor and thus some reduction of braking force. 

 In time it also means there will be a little ledge at the outside of the brake pads, and I have dealt with this by occasional removal of the pads to sand them flat.

 2511 does not use the stock brakes but was fitted by Dennis Quella with Wilwood super light II calipers using his adapter mounts. 

Perhaps the SACC  kit does not create this rear overlap problem. You might ask Scott  for specific feedback on his conversion brackets.

Thanks Larry. Great info. I will call Scott.

Scott does a very thorough job of developing his brake kits and supplies very high quality parts. The previous owner of my car had sourced his own brake parts and also bought some adapters from SACC. He had purchased the wrong part numbers. Scott was extremely helpful in sorting out the mess and supplied the correct parts at competitive prices. BTW, his calipers adapters are robust and properly designed.

Hello Tomsealbeach
or did you buy your front brake discs and for what year ford mustang?
Thank you !

So they bolt-on in back? With my adapted early Porsche 911 rotors from 30 years ago, both the rotor and hat-adapter needed some clearance-machining so as to not rub the rear uprights.

 On 2511 there was no need for any machining of the upright when I installed the mustang rotors.
