Ever consider making brackets for Brembo or Stoptech calipers?

[martyo]

I need my set. Hurry the **** up.

I'll sell you mine, with front TSE SS lines, all new in packaging, no waiting.
Let me know.

Fine $8.00 and you pay the shipping

Why aren't you using them?? :confused:

Winter puts that job about 8 months away.
I need to rebuild the rearend first thing next season, so I could let the brackets go, if it helped someone.

count me in, will send you a check.

If you're in a pinch, I'll send mine to you Monday - have Jerry ship yours to me when he wakes the hell up and starts working :rolleyes:

pm if you want this.

Still waiting on mine

Let me see where Jerry stands on timing but this may be a really good idea.

Gerald, what say you on timing?

[crownvic05]

anyone have an idea if these work on a 05 vic?
also will it work with 17" steel wheels or just 18" rims?

Thread with all the knowledge.

Would a DTR benefit from one of these kits, or is it already slow enough?

[RubberCtyRauder]

I'm thinking air disc brakes is the next wave of improved braking here, just have to figure out the center cap fitment, and some extra lug nut studs..then good to go

They work on any '03+ Panther. They just barely squeeze into 18s, so that's as small as you can go.

I sold yours, sorry :P

this site will allow me only one recipient per private message :shake: so,
I must post this:
I am shipping my new mounts to Marty on Monday (address in your sig)
No hurry on my replacements from Jerry (all winter), pm when ready
nobody get's hurt, Marty gets parts on time, Jerry has no rush, I'm the pivot man :eek:
Marty - let me know if you want the SS lines as well.

And it comes with floating axles too!

I make no apologies for refusing to accept the mediocrity (or worse) of marginal or lowest-bidder design in a car that I expect to perform. Hot rodding is not just bolting on parts, but designing and fabricating of improvements. But the humor was not lost on me ;)

Well damn Geoff, that is awesome!

Thank you!

Let me know what I owe for the shipping.

And I have the SS lines from TCE in hand already. I did not have to tell him to hurry the **** up like I did Jerry! :D

This thread is almost inspiring enough for me to invent better better brakes
I need a project

I'm thinking of designing a bracket that will hold a second caliper for twice as much brake surface. Engineer a control so when the brakes are applied the air ride compressor will kick on blowing air onto the front rotors so to help prevent overheating and warping.

I did see on Facebook that it is suggested to run a nitrous line to each rotor for better cooling but that may push me over my budget :bigcry:

It will look great on your tank proof 9" rear :cool:

keep going, you're on to something..killer chiller fed into a constant blowing surface cooling nozzle?

boost pressure regulated meth injection to the rotor vanes?

Wilwood makes a mechanical caliper (http://www.wilwood.com/Calipers/CaliperList.aspx?subname=MC4 Mechanical) that could replace the drum/rotor monstrosity on the rear. That change alone should take 15 lbs off the rear axle. I'll be using this for the parking brake on my 9" rear setup.

So dual calipers per side??

Yes, it is not an unusual arrangement for rear discs.

LOL, I guess we won't see them on your car then. Fiat comes to mind, Mark Williams offers such a setup. No doubt there are others.

No sir I have not..... It's never been a request. Number of buyers probably wouldn't be high enough to make it feasible.
