Brake upgrade

Just thought I'd drop a quick note to tell you guys about a simple brake upgrade for your Bronco's. Bronco's are well known for their inadequate rear brakes. They don't provide nearly enough stopping power to the rear, subsequently causing the accelerated wear of the front brakes. This upgrade has worked on my 85, as well as another guy's 89 Bronco. Simply go to your neighborhood parts store, and purchase the following parts for your year truck.
1 ton master cylinder
1 ton booster
1 ton wheel cylinders
Everything bolted directly in, and the only thing I came across that was different, was the fitting size for the rear brakes on the new master cylinder.
