You should just be able to undo two bolts. I have never changed my stangs breaks but on some friends honda's it was as easy as undoing two bolts and lifting off the calipers.

i hope you know to open the bleeder when you compress the caliper piston back in on the stangs they have a bad habbit of pushing crap back up into your master cyl. and that is never a good thing
