Rear Disk or Drums

Haney said

Wow! Thanks so much for all the replies.... I love this place!!! Several asked about what I am doing up front for brakes. I bought Dr. Diff's 11.75 Brake swap kit. I also the newer alumnium MC from him as well.

I also have to admit that I like the looks of disk through the big 17" wheels on the back.....

I guess it just boils down to if I want to spend the extra $$ for disk....... Dang money thing again!!!!

What is the best rear disk conversion to use with my 11.75 kit up front?

I would probably just use Dr. Diff's 10.7" kit if you're going to keep the 11.75's up front. You could go with his 11.7" kit, but you wouldn't be taking advantage of the extra braking power compared to the 10.7's, they'd just fill out the wheel better.

I've been running the 11.75" front disks on my Challenger for probably 50k miles now, they're a great brake set up for the street. I run it with the 11x2.5" rear drums, works pretty well even with the stock combination valve, although I went with a different set of rear wheel cylinders to balance things out.
