Brakes are 20% off, Summer Essential #2

[Dan Fredrickson]

This week's Essential Summer Upgrade is Disc Brakes!

Drums are heavy, bulky, complex and have a much longer stopping distance
compared to a disc brake set up. It's simple, you've added so much extra
weight that it wouldn't hurt to lose some, sometimes even 25lbs a side.
In addition to that they are incredibly easy to work on! Needing no special
tools or knowledge makes switching to disc brakes a no brainer!

You can save 20% on all Disc Brake products!
Complete Conversion Kits, Weld On Disc Brake Brackets, Bolt On Disc Brake Brackets,
Brake Line Tabs and everything else in our Disc Brake Product Category is ON SALE
right now until 7/25/17 at Midnight!

Maybe I'm missing it but I see nothing that seems to fit our Chrysler 8.25 rear axles

Am I wrong?

 

[Dan Fredrickson]

Heavyopp-

I don't have anything bolt-on for the chrysler 8.25" brakes. Most of what I have in the brake department is for folks who have upgraded to 1 ton or Ford 9" axles. The 9" is a popular choice because the 5 lug pattern stays the same, but a lot of people dig 1 ton axles out of junk yards and need to upgrade to discs.

 

[Dan Fredrickson]

Lots of stopping power is a good thing!

 

[Heavyopp]

I've worked with one of your 14 bolt kits before -- worked out very well

Sure would be nice to have the option on the 8.25 instead of digging around junk yards looking for a donor ZJ

Honestly, we have brackets that are just cut generically for a 3" axle tube (which I believe is what the 8.25" is).

You can get the same really common Chevy 3/4 ton front calipers, and then I believe people use rotors from grand cheorkees.

Here is a link to the bracket, if anyone has more questions feel free to shoot a PM or respond here.
