New ERA Coming Not So Soon...

I highly recommend that you reconsider the standard jag rear and opt for their competition rear end assembly.

Wait till the first time you have to do rear brakes, inboard Jag rotor changes are not the easiest thing to accomplish.

That, and the comp rear offers more adaptability for your driving pleasure, not to mention it is much stouter than the stock Jag rear end assembly.

I've owned a few of each (427SC and 289FIA ERA's) and always prefer to purchase one with the comp rear vs the standard rear.

Noted.

However, i guess perspective matters. When i see inboard brakes i think "familiar." This is because in my past i've worked on inboard braking systems for more than a few years.

Also, how stout will i need? this is not a race car nor is it a daily driver. If the Jag rear end cant take me and my wife out a couple weekends a month for 6 months out of the year, well.....

I think ill be fine, and if not, thats what i have a garage full of tools for (not literally, but you know what i mean). Also, i have no expectations of assembling the kit and NEVER touching another tool. But, again, given the quality of the ERA kit and its components, ill be fine.
