I believe the SVT, ST, and all advance trac spindles are the same.
I had ST spindle's and just added the caliper bracket and rotors to convert to SVT.

I think this is all correct - AdvanceTrac rear brakes are exactly the same pieces as the 05-07 ST brakes which should make getting replacement parts easier to figure out. The other difference between SVT and AdvanceTrac / ST rear brakes is that the SVT has the two-piece brake line setup versus a one-piece for the ST/AdvanceTrac

The caliper bracket on the Rear of the SVT is also different to accommodate the larger rotor, but the do share the same caliper.
