Big Brakes on S10

ok i have been doing some thinking(i know scary). big brakes are something everyone wants. well im building a blazer and i have done alot of research to get the biggest, and nicest brake system. well i have alot of info wonder if anyone would be interested in me doing a big post of my info

i'd like to know where you find big brakes that don't cost a kidney on ebay.

post it up, i like to learn any and everything that has to do with minis.

depends on what your kidneys worth. i was 780 for EVERYTHING starting with a bare spindle, Hibs, rotors, pads, bears, calipers, bolts, seals......u name it, its probably inculded in that price. I'll be stuck in engineering class all day, so I probably wont get anything posted until around 8 or 9 tonight

hey all, i have a set of 10.75" front brake kit for an s10. Its never been used, and i have it up for sale. You can probably go bigger like a 12", but you start getting into big money. make me some offers on my brake kit, just IM me.

From this point you would able to rub corvette rotors that will slip over those hubs you just turned out of the original rotor. So far there would no problem, but next comes the calipers which from what I heard from friends are the problem with doing this. I know for a fact that if you run a single or dual piston caliper that the pistons are only on the inside there isn
