Title: 9" Ford rear with disk brakes
Post by: roverman on April 07, 2014, 12:56:24 PM
I would like to use Wilwood 4 pots, hats and disk,(lighter than oem). Anyone make a lightweight steel hat, that will work as an e-brake drum, like Porsche/etc. ?  I don't want to use a "line lock" as an e-brake.  Thanks, roverman.
