im trying to figure out what disc brakes to get. my budget is $2000 and my only things i care about is that the brakes are drilled and slotted. my truck is an 83 c10 rwd, it currently has rear drum breaks, and a 5.7L 350 v8. its going to have a 4/6 static drop and 18'' rims in the front an 20'' rims in the back. if anyone needs more info just let me know.
thanks

I havent looked in a while, but the McGaughys kit was the bset bang for the buck with 13" rotors all around. All the other lower priced kits had 13" in front and 12" in rear.

Heres the rear from McGaughys. It has a built in e-brake. Most others do not in this price range. BTW- There are several Forum Vendors that offer this kits listed.
