Front Brake Kits
Just wondering if anyone has installed an aftermarket brake kit on their truck (wilwood, baer, ssbc etc). I'm in the market for some new brakes on the front of my '84 and was curious as to what kind of luck some of you have had with any of these manufacturers.
Thanks in advance. |

Re: Fronk Brake Kits
Have the SSBC Force 10 front and their rear conversion kit...happy about the quality of both...only bad thing about the front kit was that I have to run a 1/2" spacer on the front in order for the caliper to clear the wheels.

Re: Fronk Brake Kits
Hey Crush,
How much did the SSBC kit improve you stopping ability? My truck doesn't stop worth a $h........... |
