Hey All...
Haven't had a chance to post much lately - been really busy at the shop! ...Should be releasing 2 new products here soon though! In the meantime, I just wanted to remind everyone that we have the GM 14-Bolt Full-Float Disc Brake Brackets and also a Full Kit including everything you need to do the swap, including Bracketry, Rotors, Calipers, Pads, S.S. Braided Lines, Hand-Bendable Hard Lines, Brakeline Tabs, even the Banjo Bolts!! Complete Kit is $385 plus shipping, and Brackets only for $100 plus shipping.
Remember - Our Kits use Full Circle spacer rings to ensure you get the strongest setup possible, and also keep the caliper perfectly aligned with the rotors!
*And the best part? - All of our brackets are now 3/8" thick - for the same price!
 
Does the full kit have an emergency brake for that price? If so thats a smokein deal

Nope, the full kit is uses front calipers (non e-brake). I have the option for the e-brake style calipers for an additional $100, but we have seen those calipers stick and stop working after only a couple years. I recommend some other sort of emergancy brake if possible (like a trasfer case mounted system).

Thanks for the orders!

I just wanted to post up here and thank everyone who has ordered these kits from us! They have been a great selling item, and we have shipped many kits so far - even some to France and quite a few to Greece! Crazy!! I thought I'd post a pic of the full kit (since for some reason I see that I did not originally) and also let you know the updated pricing.

Pricing for the standard kit is $385 plus shipping (85lbs from 80020)
Pricing for the E-Brake style calipers with the kit is $495 plus shipping (87lbs from 80020)

**NOTE - I really prefer the standard calipers over the E-Brake style - they are less complicated and much cheaper to replace if need be, as well as being much easier to locate. However, if you decide on the e-brake calipers be aware that although I include a fabricated universal lever for the caliper, I do not include any sort of mounting bracket for the outer "sheath" of your existing e-brake cable. There are just too many styles and lengths out there for me to make a bracketry system. I recommend using a transfer-case mounted e-brake instead, or even using line-locks inline in your normal brake lines for temporary holding power (if you plumb two line-locks -one into each side of your rear brakes- and put them on seperate switches, you can even use them as a type of cutting brake :wink1: )

Thanks again to everyone!!
