Power Brakes
He any of you removed your vacuum power brake booster and master cylinder and replaced them with dual master cylinders w/balance bar? I was looking for any parts information you may have.
Thanks, Kenm 2560 |
Ken,
Funny you should post about this. I am in the middle of this mod and was just talking to Dean about it yesterday (Monday) I was able to mount 12.720X1.25 rotors and Wilwood SL6R calipers inside my 15" Trigos. Also I removed the power booster-M/C and built a sheet stainless box to mount a Wilwood 60deg M/C assembly with a balance bar and remote reservoirs. I’m still working but it should be done in a week or so. I’ll take some pics and post them shortly. Jason |
Thanks, I would like to see the pictures, I am planning on doing an upgrade on the master cylinder in November.

Not to rob the thread, but I bought the Wilwood 12.120x1.25 rotors from Dynamic as a left over stock item. It came with the hats and hubs for a Pinto, which I'm guessing goes on our early style Ford Granada spindles. What else is needed in doing the big brake upgrade? i.e. bearings, bolts, etc. I also noticed you have the SL6R's.:D I do have 15" wheels on my car. R |
Hey Ron,
I was actually gonna do a thread about this but since Ken asked the question we will stay here for know. I you have rotors, hats and hubs I think you should need: rotor bolt kits (2) bearings (2 inner and 2 outer) grease seals inner(2) caliper brackets (2) caliper bracket bolts (4) calipers (2) caliper bolts (4) pads lines and fittings (-3) possibly spacers behind your hat. depending on your hub.

Hey guys,
I snapped a couple of pics of my progress: http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d...m/IMG_0511.JPG http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/d.../IMG_05181.JPG |
Muy Bueno! My rotors for now are unslotted. I don't know if they'll stay that way though. Who did you order your kit from?
