Re: Why is drum to disc called an upgrade?

"Re: Why is drum to disc called an upgrade? "

The plain and simple truth is because it is an upgrade . Some guys are just fine with drum brakes ...Some aren't

If your looking at doing 100' power brake burnouts ( which in an empty bed pick up isn't hard to do ) don't upgrade to 4 wheel discs ,You'll just end up smoking your trans or clutch .
