    MoPar Brake Upgrade Options?

    I reached out for quotes on the hubs. But, by the time you buy the calipers, rotors, and then have the hubs and caliper adapters machined, it would actually be cheaper to buy a nice radial mount Wilwood caliper, make a radial mount adapter, then use the stock hub/rotor. I think the kit I...

    Best disk brake kit for 65 Dart?

    I recently asked this question myself, but I couldn't find a compromise between performance, price, wheel fitment, and spare part affordability. I've decided to go my own way and build my own.

    MoPar Brake Upgrade Options?

    Thanks you all for you interest an input. I've been thinking about some responses and investigating your ideas. Thanks for the compliment! I went into my model to investigate your idea further, and with this caliper it really is not possible to push the caliper itself back any further. Of...

    I have an update! Some of you may not have seen it, but I started a thread about disk brake upgrades for the Cuda back in June, and I finally got to a point where I can show you all what I've been working on. The link to the other forum post is here. And the link to my build log is here! The...

    MoPar Brake Upgrade Options?

    Alright everyone, I've been hard at work on this kit for my project car, and I wanted to let you all see it to get some opinions. I designed the kit with the components I described before: 2006 WRX calipers, 2004 350Z rotors, large bearing A body spindles, with custom components to hold it all...

    Would depend on rotor thickness, but I can't see why not. I'm going to order a caliper soon to measure and finish my CAD model. I'll check on that.

    MoPar Brake Upgrade Options?

    Thanks for the input Disarray! And to respond to what everyone else said, I had never heard of Dr Diff, but it looks like I had almost the exactly the same idea as what he implemented with the stage 3 and 4 kits. The only difference in what I want to do is to use what I believe is a much higher...

    MoPar Brake Upgrade Options?

    Hello everyone! This is my first forum post (besides my introduction), and I really just have a question for you all. I've done a lot of research about what's available out there for bolt on front brake upgrades, and it looks like there's: the B/E body upgrade for drum cars the KH 4 pot upgrade...

    Wow that sounds like such a cool project! I wish I had the budget right now to build a bad engine and get a tremec transmission. Not in the cards. I have a few 318s and a 340 to choose from for blocks. Stock forged cranks. J heads. And a NewVenture 5 speed from a 2wd 1500 truck. Gonna have to...

    I'm glad you like what I'm working on! The black Cuda in your profile picture looks extremely cool. I assume that's your project? I know I'm not making quick progress right now, but I still hope to be racing in early 2020. Hopefully Sandblast Rally in March 2020 and/or Southern Ohio Forest in...

    Uggggh... Life is going. I wish I was making better progress on the car, but spring hit and BAM! Busy all the time. I was able to get the front floor pans installed/ patched prior to the clutch in my little Porsche 944 going out (throw out bearing). $800 and a month of labor later, it's mowing...

    Formula S 66 with AC and a manual would have to be super rare right..? Very cool!

    Yeah I've known about the Team Starfish car for a while! I've watched some of his YouTube videos and I really love what he's done with it. They make beautiful road racers.

    They're relatively new. If you're interested in them when I change the lug pattern then shoot me a DM and we can discuss offline. -Dave

    Dan, they're Ansen Slots. And yes, they're 4" bolt circle. I'll be going to a 4-1/2" bolt pattern, so I eventually won't need them anymore. They do a god job hold it up right now though.

    Hello everyone! Just wanted to introduce myself and let you all know what I'm wrenching on. I've started a project to build a `64 Barracuda into a stage rally car. I have loved the MoPar brand for years; for my family it's always been Chrysler or Chevrolet. My other passion for years has been...
