I am trying to decide on a brake kit for my 70 Duster. I am looking for a slotted and cross drilled kit with nice calipers that will clear 15 inch wheels. Any suggestions??
Anyone using this setup....?

DoctorDiff 10.7" rear disc brake kit includes loaded Cobra calipers with internal parking brake, billet aluminum caliper brackets, rotors, stainless flex lines and hardware. All new parts $625

go slotted but not drilled unless its a track car.
I got mine from rotorpro's, they have the best prices shipped compared to anyone else (just replacement rotors though.

You can also run the 11.75 kit with Viper calipers. Mancini Racing has this kit for sale. Various vendors offer the Mopar 11.75 rotor drilled and slotted.
I am going with a 73-later spool type K member. The Viper caliper kit is what I am looking for but had not seen a Viper caliper used with a 11.75 rotor. Thought maybe you had to use a 13" rotor for the Viper caliper.
This car may not get 500 miles a year but for some reason I want cross drilled and slotted rotors??  If I can not go fast, or corner on rails, might as well look that part.

I have a set of cross drilled rotors from Baer and they cracked at the cross drilled holes.
thats common for drilled rotors, which is why I said in my above post that they are not for street use...
Meh... I have them on my '06 M3 and my '05 TL and they are fine... used and abused on the street...

Lots of Mercedes have drilled rotors, and not just the AMG cars.
The difference is in how the rotor is made. Lots of aftermarket cheapie rotors are drilled after casting. Those rotors will crack when abused. The Merciless Bends stuff is cast with the holes. It's a more expensive rotor to cast but they don't crack.
We are brothers and sisters doing time on the planet for better or worse. I'll take the better, if you don't mind.

The 13" front disc brake kit will not fit 15" wheels, but I also offer a couple reasonably priced 11.75" kits that will clear 15" wheels.
Drilled/and/or/slotted/plated rotors are optional on all my kits.
are your brakes single,2,4, or 6 piston calipers?
