im looking at purchasing this rear disc brake kit for teh back of my daily.
http://www.speedwaymotors.com/BOLT-...-FORD,5336.html (http://www.speedwaymotors.com/BOLT-ON-REAR-DISC-BRAKE-KIT-9-FORD,5336.html)

it would be the one with emergency brake calipers for the 7.5 GM rear.

my question would be on replacement parts. since its my daily, i will eventually need to replace parts of the kit. speedway was no help on the origonal applications of the parts included in their kit. the sales/tech people stated they had no idea, but said that i could buy replacement rotors from them for like 80 bucks each, plush shipping and handling. thats rediculous.

the paking brake calipers appear to be the same that were on my 82 eldorado, or my 79 TA with rear discs. so i believe that is the pad and caliper replacement application.

i have no idea on the rotors. no clue whatsoever.

so, anyway, what i need is to know what the parts store would have to know to buy replacement parts, as well as your opinion on the kit for those of you that hav used it.

thanks, y'all
