Hi all,
I am researching the auto stores for the right rotors, calipers, and pads to go with Heli-tool's PW front disc brake kit.
What brand have you used with your kits?
I have been to 2 stores so far. I will check others.
Price and brands:
ROTORS:
Autozone(Duralast)................$33.99ea
Pepboys(Prostop)..................$23.99ea
OR..........$29.90ea
CALIPERS:
Autozone(Fenco)remanufactered.....$18.99ea
Core charge......$11.00ea
Pepboys(Prostop)..................$15.99ea
Core charge......$18.00ea
PADS:
Autozone???????????Forgot to ask
Pepboys(prostop)..Ceramic.........$41.99
Platinum........$31.99
The store clerk needs a vehicle to look them up, so I specified what is on Rays website.
78-87 GM 3/4 ton AND 71-78 GM 3/4 ton 4X4
I will changed the master cylinder to a dual unit. Which brand do you suggest?
I have a 53 PW.
Any other parts or tips I should know about?
Terry, I did not forget those hubs. Are you still making stainless brake lines?
I will attempt this during the spring so I should be ready for VT.
May be a good Idea if I am in the front of the trail ride, for obvious reasons!!!!!
Thanks in advance
