I've talked to some vendors, but they mainly want me to buy their crap.<br /><br />Any feedback? Anyone try the Baer S.S setup? Strange? Wilwood? <br /><br />I heard Aerospace is somewhat good, but their "rotors" are somewhat thinner restricting hard street use. I'm not going to Autocross or road-race anytime soon.<br /><br />I am asking this since I am going 31-spline and I want to convert to rear discs while its up. Looking to save some weight also.<br /><br />Thanks in advance. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>JoeT</b> <br /><small>Member # 298</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,7,4,18,44,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> you're not going to find a lighter setup out back than the factory drums I don't think. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>66 AC COBRA</b> <br /><small>Member # 904</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,7,4,18,49,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by JoeT:<br /><strong> you're not going to find a lighter setup out back than the factory drums I don't think. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">um no<br />pick up a wilwood or strange rear disc and it is about 1/2 the weight of a drum <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>98slowhoe 'FIFTYLX'</b> <br /><small>Member # 895</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,7,4,20,40,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> not to steal the thread but do wilwood and strange keep the stock 4 lugs? and if so do you know any part numbers? <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>88DroptopGT</b> <br /><small>Member # 2535</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2004,7,6,9,11,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Originally posted by 98slowhoe 'FIFTYLX':<br /><strong> not to steal the thread but do wilwood and strange keep the stock 4 lugs? and if so do you know any part numbers? </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Looking in the Summit catalog, they seem to be only in 5 lug.
