what callipers should i use

Post by TrevD »

got my 9" axle back today, now looking at rear brakes, have disks already but unsure what calipers to use, any help greatly apreciated.
details of car so far
Tube frame dart with stryt front end , front brakes are Strange 4pot with 11" non vented disks, i have rear disks, 11" non vented.

tyres are , front 24-4.5-15, rear 33-21.5-15

do i need more braking power to the rear as i have more rubber or will they still lock up under hard braking (at the end of the strip)

Audi A4, Easy to fit nice and compact, cheap ,easy to obtain.
Used them and the handbrake mech and cable on my 9"

Wouldn't of thought you would of wanted more braking on the back as there is less weight even if tyres are bigger? :roll:

bit the bullet and ordered wilwood to compliment the fronts, not cheap but its my arse they will be stopping :) spent all day designing and machining the billet brackets to mount them, hope they work.
