and i may do that... the only problem is i only have 4 days over spring break that i can get all this **** done to mai truck...

any of yall got aftermarket brakes?

 

nope, but it may help, im not sure i would spend that kind of money on pads though, rotors sure, but pads will still wear out

 

Unless you plan on road racing it, I don't see why you don't just use standard rotors and pads. Those aren't worth the extra money for just daily driver. Plus you have a manual you hardly need the brakes.

 

Basically i need brakes and fell like the stock ones are just terrible...

also, my dad said he would pay for this stuff...

 

so i'm not the only one that feels the stock brakes are horribly, HORRIBLY lacking?

I remmeber seeing in speedway illustrated little 1" long deals that go between the hard lines and the MC, that kept a 5 PSI preload on the discs and 10 PSI preload on the drums. I can't find the website anymore....supposed to increase brake response time and make the pedal harder or something. don't think they'd work though..?

There we go, Wilwood.

 

hmm thats an interesting idea... ever heard of anyone that has it?

 

Updated my post with the wilwood link. I would probably just get one for the drums in back.....

 

they're required for vehciles that have the MC below the axle lines, they seem to work pretty well. If wilwood makes em and advertised em in speedway illustrated, i can't see it being a bad thing...might be worth a call?

 

no doubt... thanks for the link... i'll see what i can do

 

Well if hes paying... lol

I know the stockers aren't too great but with a manual you don't need to be slamming on them anyway.
