    14 inch rotos?

    I know stock front rotors are 13.8, but will a 14 inch rotor fit in the gen 4 SHO?

    Gen 2 Brakes sticking

    I've tried to look around to see if this has been discussed before but I've had little to no luck. I picked up a 92 SHO at the beginning of the year and I always noticed that after driving for around 15-20 miles then the brakes seem to stick. I have to physically pull the brake pedal up with...

    Best brakes?

    Hey everyone, I think this would be the correct pace to post a question regarding brakes. I have a couple “dumb” questions (not someone who knows all that and more about cars) Why are my brakes still squealing a year after replacing rotors and pads? I have the Detroit Axle slotted rotors and...

    Help finding stock brake specs

    Hey there! The '94 needs some new brakes in the rear, I'm trying to preform a stock restoration on her and I'm not sure what kind of brakes to use. Looking on Ford's website, they list an organic pad for that, doesn't specify if that's the same as OE or not. Meanwhile at Advance, our catalog...

    2010-2012 Brake upgrade success

    Hello all! I just wanted to share my recent experience with upgrading the horrible brakes that come on our 2010-2012's. A bit of backstory. My car is a 2011, and one of the only things I disliked about the vehicle when I purchased it was the limitations of the brakes. They had nearly no bite...

    No SHO guy here, seeking advice???

    I have a boring 2000 Taurus with the Flex Fuel V6. I am wanting to improve the handling and braking more than anything. I found this website from this other site, that has a wealth of knowledge but the site appears a bit dated. I wanted to see where to buy upgraded end link sets and sway bars...

    Gen 4 (2010) brake pads and rotors (non PP) - new in box Motorcraft

    I had planned on putting new brake pads and rotors on all 4 corners of my 2010 SHO but ended up selling it before I could get them installed. I ordered Motorcraft rotors and brakes from CarID and they are still in the package they arrived in. I have receipts totaling over $400. Selling for a...

    13+ Interchangeable Brake Rotor Sizes?

    I have a 2011 SHO non-PP I was searching the forums and I came across a thread from a while ago and Im getting the vibe that the 13+ front rotors are able to fit on the earlier Gen 4s too. I was wondering if it was the same case for the rear brakes as well. I was going to get this kit here...

    Duralast GT Carbon Fiber brake review

    So about two weeks ago I installed the Duralast GT brake pads and rotors. Compared to stock, the brake fade is gone and they bite much harder. These brakes are able to lock up the sport comps, before I never saw ABS kick in. It was all about $550. The downside is they're pretty loud, lost of...

    Crunching sound from brakes

    hey guys so I’m freaking out a little, not sure what’s up but every time I brake at low speeds my passenger side brake sounds like it’s grinding and crunching. Drove through a snow storm to get home yesterday and locked up a few times, just started this morning. Not sure if I need new brake pads...

    2018 SHO without the Performance Package. Seeking upgrades

    I recently purchased a 2018 SHO. It does not have the SHO Performance Package. I'd now like to upgrade/retrofit it with brakes and suspension mods, and possibly exhaust and engine tuning at a later date. My Ford dealer won't help, suggested I find a good tuning shop, but would not offer any...

    Just bought 1989 SHO, looking for information for brake upgrades among other questions.

    How's it going guys, so I just bought my first Taurus SHO on sunday, and the brakes need to be done, I'm looking for information on how easy/hard it would be to upgrade to the brakes to the 12"-13" rotors and better pads, how much work and modification would be needed to do said upgrade? Also...

    ABS Light

    I have a 93 Atx Sho, and after hitting a pothole while coming to a stop, my ABS activated and my ABS light came on, and has stayed on. I'm assuming it's the wheel sensor of that wheel that hit the pothole, but wanted to check the abs codes before replacing. My question is where exactly is the...

    ABS pump kicks in for no reason on left turn???

    ABS pump kicks in for no reason when turning left quickly or acceleration through the turn. Only happens on a hard left turn. Replaced both front sensors a few months ego and still no change. Replaced the two rear sensors yesterday. One was routed wrong through the suspension and the cable...

    Upgrading the brakes... some advice needed AND given!

    Hi Gang! So, I knew last fall that I'd have to (certainly by spring time) replace the brakes on my SHO. Turns out, I was totally right, as I only barely passed inspection on the rotors... he actually wasn't going to pass them, but since I had new brakes ready to go he just sorta nodded it off...

    HELP!! Opinions Needed! What Color Calipers?

    I could really use some opinions... I'm undecided between Red and Blue paint for calipers. I'm about to embark on my first brake job (woot!) and will be painting the calipers while I'm there. I did some mockups, so tell me what you think. STOCK Calipers RED Calipers BLUE Calipers...
