Alright- im gonna do the cobra upgrade kit on my 91 sho up front...i was wondering before i go buy my new suspension parts and ball joint and control arms- i need to know if i should buy those or buy the 96 ones to compensate for the cobra brakes like a new spindle or knuckles or something like that- so basically i need to know what i eed to accomodate those cobra calipers- i know i need 17 in wheels and a caliper bracket and to shave the caliper to fit better and i heard about milling the rotors to fit too...so let me in on everyhting i need to know about it and im gonna buy everyhting through ford probably(with a discount of course) so if i need spindles itll be from a 96 right and BTW what is the spindle and a knukle- wheres the ball joint located...im in need of some serious tierods and steering parts so other than that ill be straight- thanx for ne help.... :D

With either the 11.6" or 13.0" front brake upgrade you will need the '94-95 spindles (make sure they come from a Taurus equipped with ABS). I believe that you still want to use the stock replacement control arms and other front suspension parts for the specific year of your SHO. BTW, if you are getting used spindles, have new bearing installed in them.
