    Today's the day for some new shoes....
    « on: May 12, 2007 - 06:31:54 AM »
    Brake shoes that is!!  :icon16: If the Mopargods are with us today, we will be doing front disc brake conversion.  :working: Kudo's to SSBC on some really fast shipping. While were at it the 245's are coming of the rear and 275's goin on 15X8 ralleys goin back on. I sure hope that post on tire sizes is correct! Of course all the parts were at the house so I packed the car to bring it to the shop. I guess the other T/A will end up in the passengers seat! I plan on taking some pics as we go, so all can see whats involved (for those considering it). Also the wife says I can't have an elephant motor without an elephant... cool..  We'll see how it goes.  :bigsmile:

    That'll be a worthy upgrade for you.  Those kits are well-designed, (at least with the Wilwood kits, but SSBC shouldn't be any different) so hopefully everything goes smoothly for you. :cheers: :2thumbs:

    AWESOME! Let us know, I'll more than likely be ordering some SSBC brakes myself. Your 275's will fit perfectly so don't worry. Best looking size on an E-Body IMO, 28" keeps the rear up how it should be, not sagging.

    I have ordered the Master Power brake kits a couple of times for some customer cars and all has gone well.
    I would recommend that you may want to repaint you rallye wheels before you install them as the grey is too dark on the ones I have seen from wheel vintiques and Y1, they should be a lighter shade of silver.
