Title: whats better brake kit? Post by: beetletom on August 30, 2011, 15:32:29 pm i'm after a wide 5 ball joint disc brake kit
who makes the better one? csp or cb performance? i would like to use them with dropped spindles for disc brakes Title: Re: whats better brake kit? Post by: Speed-Randy on August 30, 2011, 20:32:37 pm It's all in the caliper. If it's one of the stock looking calipers(gold in color), then it's basicly the same as any other brake kit. They are buying them from the same supplier and repackaging with there brand on it, the rotors might have a little different machine work on the mounting surface, but it's still a 5/205 using the same size bearings and the spindle probably needs to run a late tie rod end. If you can, use a kit that utilizes the wilwood calipers, those are nice kits

I put the Neal 5/205 kit on my notch 10 years ago( non drop) with wilwood calipers and that worked great as well. So really the decision is how much do you want to spend

and the bad billet ones have interchangable hubs nut never heard a bad thing about csp ones or neal :) Title: Re: whats better brake kit?
