lol...doesnt need to stop if it doesnt drive.

what about a 3rd gen supra? the turbo versions are like 230 hp stock, so they are beefy. gearing and brakes wouldnt be an issue really. i see them in the junkyards alot.

i think they got writeups about brakes and hub changes on http://www.tccoa.com a lot them guys swap over from the mn12 hubs to the sn95 shit so they can get rear disc and use cobra wheels.

im not farmiliar with those rears, but my isuzu had a 300zx rear and a tuned port 350 v8 that i gave mortal hell and never gave me a bit of problem. enuff that i wasted a new tire in a month haha, so those should be fine if hp is not gona be real high

Some Ford Expeditions came with a 8.8-inch IRS and 13-inch disc brakes. got mine from a '03 and reused the knuckles and CV's and just had shorter axles made for it. the stock track width is over 70-inches if i recall.
