This kit lets you mount late model Ford rotors and calipers on your 95-03 Explorer 8.8 solid axle. This axle is commonly swapped into projects, and although it already has disc brakes, the parking brake setup is clunky and hard to adapt. Often, the parking brake is never hooked back up after an axle swap. This is a problem, especially with manual transmission cars and off-road vehicles. Not to mention that the brakes are 20+ years old and could probably use a re-fresh, so why not upgrade?
The advantage of the electric parking brake is obvious if you have ever adapted a mechanical one before- It is much easier to route electrical wires than adapt heavy pull cables, and make sure leverage ratios work together. And the holding power of the electric calipers is superb, extremely reliable, and easy to operate. There is a reason most modern vehicles now use them.
Application:
1995-2003 Explorer 8.8
What's Included:
- Pair of Caliper Mounting Brackets
- Associated Mounting Hardware
- Wiring Switch & Connectors
What You Will Need:
- Brake calipers from the following vehicle(s):
- 2020+ explorer/interceptor/aviator brakes which use an integrated electric parking brake on the calipers
- Smaller solid rotor version found on the base Explorer (fits 17” wheels)
- Larger vented disc version found on higher trim Explorers, Police Interceptors and Lincoln Aviators (fits 18” + wheels)
- 16ga wire
- Wire Loom
Fitment Notes:
- Aftermarket axle shafts- the 2020+ explorer rotors need an wheel mounting flange diameter of 6.40" or less. Some aftermarket shafts are larger than this, especially if they are dual drilled with a larger bolt pattern.
- You may reuse your existing brake hoses with some modification or get matching hoses with your new calipers.
- This kit will fit most 17”+ wheels depending on wheel design and backspacing.
- There are two rotor/caliper combos available- a smaller solid rotor version found on the base Explorer (fits 17” wheels) and a large, vented disc version found on higher trim Explorers, Police Interceptors and Lincoln Aviators (fits 18” + wheels). This kit fits both variants.

Already have the brake brackets on my rear end. Just waiting for calipers from ebay. The brackets are first rate and installed perfectly. I will be bragging to all my bros and they will be wanting some brackets soon.
The brake bracket kit looks amazing!! Just as good as everything else I’ve bought from range!!
This kit was so easy to install with great directions. I was going to make my own brackets but this kit was a no brainer! I installed most of it within a hour. With 2'" wheel spacers and a tiny bit of cleaning up the caliper brackets my 15" wheels fit.
Fast shipping and a great product made this guy who rarely leaves a review to leave this.
Thanks!
2nd piece I’ve bought from them! Awesome craftsmanship! Great Company, quality parts for sure
