Christmas came in JULY today when I got my order from Wilwood. I met a few Wilwood guys here and there at SEMA and at SEMA's MPMC event in SoCal. When I found out they started offering a 4-lug disc brake kit made for a Mustang, but that'd fit on a Falcon, I jumped on it. While I was at it, here's what I ordered:
- 4-lug disc brake kit, complete! Rotors, calipers, pads, bearing, everything!
- Proportioning valve with built in brake switch
- Stainless brake hoses
- (not shown) Compact clutch master cylinder with remote reservoir.
If you've ever looked into a 4-lug Ford disc brake kit, then you've probably heard of the Scarebird kit. It's basically the mounting hardware and instructions about what off-the-shelf parts to get from your local auto parts store. It's cheaper, but when it comes to brakes - that wasn't my top priority! I'm jazzed to have brand new parts with a name like Wilwood to stand behind in case I have any problems. Here's a link to the brake kit I got.

Did you utilize the factory single circuit jam jar master cylinder and did the disc brake kit work well without power assist?
