I need to get some brakes so I can put the Ferd 9" in. I guess the options so far are.
1. Aerospace: look good, have heard good things on Maliburacing.com, but also have heard some bad here. Looks like a good price for fixed 4 piston calipers. Screw in dust seals and full billet construction.
2. Wilwood: race only piece? No dust seals.
3. Explorer rears: Easy to score cheap, parking brake. Still would have to decide which fronts to upgrade to in the future.
4. Baer: yeah right. No way I am spending that much dough on floating 2 piston brakes.
Also need to know what to do with the factory prop valve to facilitate rear disks since they have a 20# preload on the rears for drums.
If you have done a swap that you are very happy with please share your setup. Pics would be cool too if you had to do any backyard engineering.
