Recently completed the rear Wilwood brake system installation onto the 9" FORD rear housing. This dude is gonna stop as fast as it goes!!!!

I chose to go with the Wilwood Dynalite Series 4-piston Calipers and the 12.19" Dia. x 1.25" rotors on the rear because it is a truck and not much weight back there anyway. I also went with non-drilled rotors because they will last a lot longer with what I am doing with them. I have found from my 'road-racing track experience' that the drilled rotors crack really early with all the heat cycling. These are aluminum hats also and they are universal for 3 lug patterns.

Heres some more pics
