I'm needing to know what I should do for brake lines. I have cobra front brakes same as Baer and I'm curious what everyone with Baer front calipers and stock rear calipers run for lines my fronts need a banjo bolt and the stock it the straight in fitting what ever its called. What should I run for lines?
 
The aftermarket Goodridge brand front brake lines will not fit your Baer/Cobra calipers. The Goodrich will fit the rears if you get the proper set. I am using the Baer brand front stainless braided lines, and Goodridge rear stainless braided lines.
 
I'm not sure, its been so long since I bought mine. I know my kit came with fronts and rears for my '95 and I had a kit with front and rears for a SVT that I traded off.
 
I have custom made ones from All Hose (Parker Store). I tried to adapt Mustang ones but didnt want to use the fittings need. I still have the Mustang ones if your interested. I was told the Goodridge ones fail often...

Mine are also stock length, I heard that the off the counter ones are on the long side and can be tricky to get not to rub. Only down side is that they could be a tad bit longer for when the suspension is at full extension. Something that doesnt happen when the car is driving.

I suggest the Baers, call them to order.
 
My Goodridge ones havn't leaked or failed on the rears, but I would just call BAER and order their fronts made for your car and caliper setup.
