Default New guy doing a few mods.

Hi everyone, just joined in. I have a 1997 F150 XLT, extended cab.
I'm in Argentina and we are doing a few mods:
ENGINE: crate Shelby GT500 M-6007-C54. I also have the M601754SC computer and wire harness.
Transmission: Tranzilla 6 speed from Rockland Standard Gear
We are working on the suspension right now, I will post pictures soon.
20" x 8.5 Centerline forged Millenium Series Edge #4772856552, we just installed a Belltech lowering kit part #921ND, -2 inches up front, -3 inches rear. Belltech 1 3/8 front and 1" rear sway bar. I'm also installing a SSBC 14" / 4 piston front brakes part#A165.
We are stuck on the rear brakes. I bought 99 Lightning calipers and rear discs, but I need the brackets and can't find them. Can anyone shed some light into this or where I can get brakets to attach the calipers to the axle?
Also, anyone know where I can get the headlights used on the 2003 SVT Lighning concept truck?
Best! Gary

You have my attention... this would be a badass build here in the states, down there I"m sure it's out of this world!

You stated you have a 97' F150 but want the 03' Lightning Concept headlights?



That's a different body style and those lights won't fit... but if you want the regular 02'-04' Lightning headlights, they can be had for cheap on ebay as long as you don't mind knockoffs. Honestly, I had a set of real OEM Visteon Lightning heads and corners on my old truck, and they're not much better than aftermarket replicas.

Can you post pics so we can ID the rear brake hardware you have?
