Mustang big brake kit on a bird

i'm sure this question has been answered several times but i had no luck with the search.

I need to know what mustang brake parts are compatible with the tbird. I've noticed there are many more options for the mustang so i need to know if i were to buy a brake upgrade kit for a mustang, will it work without any other parts? I've already switched to the 5x4.5" bolt pattern so rotors are not a problem.

Depends on the year of your car. Only the 93-up front spindles can take the 'Stang brakes. You can change out the spindles if your car is an 89-92.

This FAQ has a lot of good information:
