Yes, the rear squats while hard braking and the car literally brakes straight as an arrow

I'm going to order them locally too, lol. Blue springs really screwed me one time. But just for a price reference :)

Hold up on these part numbers!

Yep
4U2Z1V125JB - SVT Rotors
DV6Z2B511A - Transit Brackets
Ordered mine from Lakeland Ford Online Parts(no affiliation to me and they were very helpful)
I think that these may be the wrong brackets.... [MENTION=762]BostonDriver[/MENTION] you happen to have the part numbers that came with your setup?

So to summarize what I've learned...everything in this thread about the transit brackets was all postulation. I should have done my research better before ordering them. If I caused any confusion or put out information that facilitated someone else ordering the brackets also, I apologize.
If you look very carefully at the three pictures in this thread of the stock brackets, SVT brackets and the Sico kit you will notice that the Sico kit are just SVT brackets....
So once again the only option that I see is finding used SVT brackets or ordering the Sico brake kit.

Thanks for clarifying but question. Did you try the Transit bracket? Reading the thread you are not the first to mention it so maybe it does work. Maybe someone should take a transit for a test drive and have a very close look at teh rear brakes. :)

Yeah I got my brackets from ford and they are possibly the right size for the bearing/backing plate but the space for the sliding calipers bolts is at least an inch longer than would fit up to a fiesta caliper....

If your interested in rear SVT brakes these have the correct brackets.
Its a little more pricey option as they only come as a caliper assembly. I spent about $250- for both calipers and rotors. If someone wants to research it for the brackets only by going off the p/n's below then go ahead.
One good thing is I found out is the main SVT caliper body (Lucas) is identical p/n stamped on the Fist unit and interchangeable if you just swap over the parking brake plates. I plan to keep mine as spare backup for now.

Cardone #18-B4822A (right) & #18-4823A (left)

Motorcraft rotors #4U2Z-1V125-JB. Same 11" rotors as the mentioned in earlier posts.

Not sure if it's been posted. But some of the junkyards don't know the focus ZX's had some rear brakes too. They are 10.2" and the SVT are 11". So make sure it's an SVT focus NOT a rear disk brake normal focus

Sandblast and it'll look like new. Hopefully he got one for the other side too. ;)

Of course :)
I took this pic 100miles from home right when I left the junkyard lol.

I have red brakes, so I have to paint these anyway..

Rotors are cheaper than I expected. $40 shipped each for OEM.

Nice. And those are the SVT brackets? What's the Ford P# stamped on them, I'm curious if they're still available from work.
