Brakes!!!
Ill just keep it simple i would like some advice on which big brake kit to buy, I think wilwood and bear are pretty much at the top and i could afford one or the other , but is it worth it. I'm thinking of the CPP kit but would like to hear your opinions. So let me hear the good and the ugly

Re: Brakes!!!
What are your plans for the truck? If you're just going to drive it around on the weekends and such, I would go with the CPP. If your'e building a high end show truck, or going to race it a bunch, I'd go with the high end brakes. I run GM calipers with the ceramic pads on the front, and Aerospace on the rear. No stopping problems whatsoever!
