Mach-E Brembo Upgrade with Part #'s

[stangg17]

Ahh...I plan on changing rotors and pads for the rear as well when I swap the front calipers which is why I was asking about the rear brakes.

My C8 has electric parking brake also but there's no special mode to put it in when doing rear brake work plus I don't think any of my previous vehicles have had a rear caliper that required a special tool to screw the piston in. That's why I'm asking and confused....

Either way, already ordered the tool, hoping to get this done either this weekend or next.

Post the results once done!

Just ordered a pair of calipers for the non-performance GT model. Will be pairing it with a pair of Stoptech rotors. Fingers crossed my 18" wheels them

As the title states...I have captured pictures and part number data to help others with their upgrade to Brembo brakes from a Mach-E GT.

The part numbers are:

Rotors = LK9Z-1125-A (2 required)
Calipers = LK9Z-2B120-A and LK9Z-2B121-A (1 each required)
Pads = LJ9Z-2001-B (1 set)
Brake Hoses = LJ9Z-2078-A (2 required)
Caliper Bolts = W7 10681-S439 (pkg 2) (4 required)
Backing Plate/Dust Shield = LJ9Z-2K004-B and LJ9Z-2K005-B (1 each required)



Once you strip the old brakes off you can start with the backing plates. They will need to be modified slightly with a mounting hole added.

You can then add the new brake hoses. The retainer bracket will likely not be in the correct position. Once you have both ends of the hose connected you can slide and rotate the bracket to line up with the mounting point.

Next you can install rotor and caliper. Caliper will need 3mm spacer between spindle and caliper.

For brake bleeding you can try the manual procedure outlined in the screenshots below. They are from FDRS (Ford shop manual). The manual procedure would not work on my hybrid but luckily, I have a VCM3 and access to the Ford service software to enter the vehicle into/out of Brake Service Mode.

Thats it!!!

If you aren't wearing your seatbelt, the brakes will put you through the windshield! They are awesome.

Thank you for this write up!

Agreed, I’m doing this for safety and drivability upgrade.

Not planning on racing my truck, but would like to do a few open track days next year when it’s further along than what I’ll have done this year.

I did mine as well using the regular GT calipers. Got the calipers off eBay for $250 each and it came with the brake hoses. This was one of the easier cars to remove the original calipers and rotors, and the new ones bolted on easy. They just clear the barrel of the 18" wheels

By any chance do you have the part number?

check page 4, there are several posts with all the possible part numbers you might need.

Correct me if I’m wrong here but it seems from the before and after that it the stock shield will work the same

OP or anyone else … can your share how close the stock vs Mach-e shield is to the rotor ?

I just mocked mine up and see no issues with the stock shield.

I would like to add a part number to the list

I have a caliper set off a 2025 and they fit and maybe someone that works at ford can verify but they don’t look any different, just a part number change.

I also purchased a pair of calipers with those same part numbers off ebay recently.

Anyone that has done this upgrade, have you had any issues with brake jounce hose length? Overall the Mach E brake hose is ~60 mm shorter than the Maverick's, so theoretically it'll be kinked a bit more under full rebound even if you reposition the hose/knuckle bracket.
