You get the following with this kit for a complete hassle free installation:
2) PowerStop USA Manufactured Directional 13" Rotors (Crossdrilled or Slotted Buyer's Choice)
2) Ford OEM Cobra Dual Piston Calipers w/ Extreme 911 Brake Pads
2) Ford OEM Caliper Brackets
2) Goodrich DOT Stainless Steel Brake Lines w/ Banjo Bolts
Calipers & Brackets are standard Black High Temp Coated. Powder coating optional colors are available for an additional fee. Contact us directly for pricing.
Common Questions we are asked:
Question- Why should I use cross drilled rotors?
Answer - The primary reason is that cross drilled rotors run cooler, approximately 200-250 degrees, when used with high quality pads. This reduces the chances of warping, which has become a major problem in recent years, particularly on late model U.S. made vehicles. Additionally you will experience improved wet weather braking with shorter stopping distances. If you are experiencing pulsation on the brake pedal, your rotors are warped. It may be possible to turn them, but they will then be thinner and unable to dissipate heat as quickly as before, and will soon warp again.
Power Stop rotors are manufactured by Autospecialty, a subsidiary of TRW, and are used on many law enforcement and emergency vehicles which experience severe braking requirements, and are popular with taxi companies.
Original equipment quality rotors are used as a base stock. Each rotor requires a specific drilling pattern in order not to interfere with the cooling vanes, and this information is programmed and run on a CNC (computer numerical control ) machine. The end result is a brake rotor that is
- mill balanced to prevent vibration
-ground finish that eliminates runout and taper
-double disc ground to ensure parallelism
- non-directional finished
-gold cadmium plated for protection against corrosion
Question- Should I use slotted or cross drilled rotors?
Answer - Some people prefer slotted rotors because of problems that came about when cross drilled rotors first came to market. At that time, quite frequently the holes were drilled too large, penetrated the cooling vanes, and were not radiused or chamfered. The end result was that the rotor lost its structural integrity and tended to crack, so slotted rotors were developed. Today, we rarely experience problem with cross drilled rotors unless they are subjected to extreme abuse, such as in competition. They do help dissipate the hot gasses, but not to the same degree as cross drilled, usually lowering operating temperatures about 100 degrees. They also tend to wear brake pads quicker because the slots act like a razor blade each time they go by. We always recommend cross drilled unless you are particularly concerned with structural integrity.
We have some of the best prices in the country on brand new high performance parts for domestic and import applications. Please feel free to contact us with your needs.
