Any bajo from an 03+ mustang will work. The cobra and 03+ stangs use the same bolts, course threaded. Go to your local auto store, get two lines and remove the bajos. I had to do this do to the fact that I have an 04gt and put on Bullittttt brakes, they take fine threaded. I still have my course threaded if you want.

drove me nuts when I got everything and couldn't install due to the bajo. I called Ford and they couldn't help. Called a friend, who works for Ford, and he told me that mid 02 ford changed all the banjos to the course threaded type so as not to have two diff ones in the Mustangs. Went and got some stock lines for an 99+ mustang and everything went right together.

So, ziggster here gets the 10th ann Cobra Brakes, and the site says you need the goddamnbanjobolts, and he goes through all of this and it turns out his stock banjo's are just fine.
I on the other hand, get the Mach1/Bullit brake conversion kit, which yer NOT supposed to have the goddamnbanjobolts, however, since it is an 04, IM the one who will need the goddamnbanjiobolts and not zigster?
Well... guess i had that coming for finding ziggys goddamnbanjobolt drama so entertaining.
lol

I'll have to get a 17inch spare rim now...315's cant go in front, doughnut spare wont clear the Cobra brakes. Whats your spare look like...maybe Ill get one of those....:wallbash: ...I overlooked this scenario.

I work 2:30pm to 10:30pm. i try to get up by 9, but i find it damn near impossible to go home after work and just go to bed. So i usually find myself unwinding at the local watering hole.
