Brakes!!!!!

[Scoobyboy1]

Hi Guys and Gals,

I could do with changing my brakes on my 71 Danbury, as pads look a little low and discs could do with a change plus my right side caliper occasionally sticks so in need of a change, now do I go all out for a Willwood big brake kit or is there a cheaper alternative, or should I just get a standard caliper and upgrade discs and pads, any opinions or info that could help improve the brakes on my van.

Cant you just give everything a clean and a paint, change the discs and pads, I would have thought if the calliper was sticking it would be the flexi that's fault maybe? Depends on the state of everything once cleaned and inspected. '71 use the smaller callers I believe, maybe see if you can utilise the later larger unit?

Bigger callipers usually require bigger discs and then you'll need bigger wheels........ Hopefully someone will follow up with their set-up
