Big Break Kit?

I asked about a big break kit last year and there weren't any on the market . Anything changed? If not what breaking options do I have other than cryos and hawks?

Not to nitpick or anything and I mean no offense! ...but they are spelled B-R-A-K-E-S. It helps for future searches to spell things properly.

I haven't heard of anything larger for the Super Duty line. Most feel that the Hawks & cyros work fantastic. I had ARTs on my last Excursion and they were great.

yes there is a upgrade for the clalipers for the f250 f 350 and ex ti utilises a 8 piston caliper and its light and its red and it disipated heat realy well . i dont know who makes it if the top of my head but its in the diesel performance magazines i have them in the next room but that would take to much efert to look for them . if you buy the magazines there in the back in the advertisments

hope that helps

^$1760 bux for the calipers! I looked up a F250 as they didnt have an excursion listed, should be the same caliper.

Thats expensive. I wonder how much better those will stop the truck over the stock calipers. How many pistons are the stock calibers on the excursion?

I talked to Goodridge.net to see if they had stainless steel brake lines for us but they said not yet.
