I am building a pro street car for the street so that we can enjoy doing cruise ins / parades and what not and was wanting to get some advice and opinions from others out there that are either running pro street or street car in regards to brakes. who's brake kit's did you decide to go with? I am looking to see what is the most reasonable but safe of course as brakes are important...I just don't want to be buying something that is either overkill or that I don't need. I have disk brakes up front and I am running a early big 9 inch in the rear with 15/14 wheels with a 33/21/50 tire


Thank you

whats wrong with what you have ? Sounds perfect for what you want to do with the car.
Adding bigger rear drum brakes to rear will help more than you think....Ford offered 11" on the trucks if they are not that big now

I got my 4 wheel disc through Pirate Jack, I believe the packaging had MBM on them, they're about 5 yrs old now with no real usage, been bouncing around body/paint shops, they're ok though for the price, wildwood is a lot nicer and more $$
