2024 Mustang Rear Brake Conversion?

[SevenForgedBoss]

I hope that we can easily convert our rear two-piece factory brake to a Brembo caliper that are on the 2024 7 Gen Mustangs. I have the front Brembo's on my 6 Gen PP and hopefully, this is an easy conversion. Looks like from the Dark Horse pics there is an integrated parking brake. Any thoughts on this?

Thought the rear set was for 'drift mode'
Sidenote: that are some real fugly wheels.

You can do that today this are the same callipers setup as on the GT350 you can see the rear park brake is separate. It's an expensive conversion since you need new halfshafts and hubs etc.

To be fair, when you take in account what the 350r kit includes it is a pretty good price. Obviously you then have to factor in wheels to clear the new brakes but that's not the fault of the kit.

Maybe another option :

Nice ...

That Wilwood E brake may also give an easy solution to the E brake problem of adding the rear S650 Brembo caliper to a S550.

I understand the Shelby conversion, but it is a lot of money. This version on the 2024 looks like its a direct fit to our rear being the rotor is much smaller.

those wheels should match nicely with that front clip...

I highly doubt it's a direct fit as the knuckles may have some differences mainly the mounting points for the Brembo caliper and the e-brake. I guess nobody knows if the s650 knuckles can mount to the s550 yet.

But this was something I had been wondering as well. Aftermarket Brembos for the rear are 4 to 5k, the GT350 rears can be pieced together far cheaper than getting a new front/rear kit, but the GT350 rear brakes have an offset (due to the integrated e-brake) that will push any aftermarket wheel that's not made for a GT350 way past the fenders and then it's not gonna look good anymore. Meanwhile as far I've read, Ford retained the same wheel offset at the brakes front and rear between the two generations. So would be great if someone can find out if the s650 rear knuckles and everything else Brembo can mount on the car with no or little issues.

i emailed steeda today and they said they are already looking into it

Why not just do the GT500 rear caliper on your current knuckle since it will mount virtually to the same space. Then run that wilwood ebrake caliper on the top side?
