will SVT brakes, front and rear, fit on my '99 SE with the stock wheels?
they are the 15 inch ones, and i know ill have to do a rear drum to disk conversion too, so will the knuckles off an SVT fit on my SE also?

1) SVT knuckles are identical to non-SVT knuckles except for those early car that came with 14" wheels, i.e. very low model Zetec's.

2) SVT rear brakes are identical to non-SVT disc-brake equipped contiques.

3) To run SVT calipers and rotors up front you need to get SVT caliper bracket to move out your caliper enough to accept the larger rotors.

4) Yes you need to get hold of a rear disc brake setup form a wrecker to do the rear conversion - there is a write up of sort on how to do this in this section of the forums.

thank you, so this means the SVT front brakes will fit in my SE wheels?
