Brakes and Wheels??

[-=Jeff=-]

Curious on all the different brake packages..

I have C5 currently and need a spacer to use my shelby wheels..

So what is everyone running for brakes? if aftermarket what is the cost?

Mine were in the HotB recently, but they are Baer 6-pot calipers that use C5 brake pads and stock rotors. They were about $1k. Throw in decent pads for another $100.

I also got Baer 2-pc rotors with 13" rears for about another $900 (you can get them cheaper if you want drilled/slotted, as places like Summit carry those).

And a DRM bias spring for $20.

All told it was about $2100-2200 or so? And they clear A-molds and maybe the spare tire (I tried the template and it had interference just barely).

Hey Bob, which HotB is it in? I will check them out

I have lingenfelter labelled 2 piston brakes and two piece rotors on the front of my 1990. The a-molds require a spacer to fit, and I have long studs on the front.

I haven't been able to find much info about them unfortunately.

Rears appear to be stock.

I believe those are Alcon, both because I recall Lingenfelter offering Alcon brakes, and because it looks like you can see the lettering "Alcon" in the first picture, right above the "ING" in LINGENFELTER.

Jeff, it was Issue 21, the 1/2010 one.

Here's my brakes:

You can see the rust ring on the rear, that shows you how much the caliper relocation moves it out from stock. It gives it more leverage, also the rotor was decently thicker as you can see in this comparison of the stock rear to the 2-piece 13" rear. It's not as thick as the front, but it's definitely beefier than the stock rear. I didn't have any problem fitting the caliper and pads over it:

Bob,

to understand completely.. the fronts are Baer 6 pots, C5 pads and C4 rotors? or C5 rotors?

[Aurora40]

Yup, 6-pot calipers, C5 sized pads, and stock J55 sized rotors. I was initially using the original rotors, but decided to go two-piece when I went bigger to move some bias back to the rear.

THANKS BOB!!
