I was browsing e bay this morning, wasn't really looking for anything in particular, and then saw this brake set.

It looks like a good deal, and looks to pretty complete, I also have used Raybestos rotors in the past and have allways had pretty good luck with them.

So what do you think about this setup, and the comany in question.

Or if anyone had the part numbers for the stock style rotors, calipers and pads maybee I can source the components locally cheeper.

Advance auto has:

hub/rotor = $41
Caliper= $25
Pads = $18
seal = $7

Total = $164

There are cheaper and more expensive option at advance.

Don't forget to consider shipping charges. I calculated them to my zip code, and they were $61. That makes it a $236 set. You might live a little closer. Just something to watch.

Too much. You can buy a Hub/Rotor assy. for about $40 and get loaded calipers (with pads) for about the same price locally. The application for Ford style will probably be 76 Ford. With the Chevy Disk swap it will be Ford for the Hub/Rotor and then I thnk 76 Chevy for the Calipers.

Thanks for the info
I will do some more research today or tomorow

Since I allready have front disks on my 1977 I don't feel I need to do a chevy conversion, plus no chevy stuff will go on my truck.

I just want to freshen everything up with the brakes. While they are working OK I have noticed a little scoring on my front rotors.

Maybee some of you have the stock Ford Part numbers for the rotors, calipers and pads??
