So, it won't look like I've done a whole heck of a lot today. I'm still waiting for parts to arrive so I can finish putting the brakes together. Apparently, on the SN95 Mustang Cobra rear discs they recommend an anti-moan bracket that bolts to the caliper bracket and clamps on the axle tube. Of course they are designed for a 2 3/4" axle and mine is 3" so some modification was required. I bought a 3" heavy duty muffler clamp, cut off the factory clamp and welded the rest of the bracket to the 3" one. Here are pics before I painted it. These brackets are no longer made by Ford. I found the RH one on ebay but I'm still looking for one for the LH side. A guy on a Mustang forum said he might have one.

I also painted my newish rear springs, clutch pedal mechanism and the anti-moan bracket today. Geez, my garage looks like a disaster area in these pics!!! I just assume that's a sign of progress....
