Disc brake kit
Really wish the spindles and disc brake brackets were chrome plated as well. They will really bring down the overall look, even though the quality is great. That is my only complaint about the kit thus far.

I'm rebuilding my dad's hot rod after being in storage for 14 years. Much needed to be done, but with tech support from Speedway Motors, their parts and a few friends, all is going extremely well.

Are you able to put together a kit like this in the same price range with a 5 on 5 bolt pattern? I can't afford the cost of the wilwood parts so I'm not interested in them, but I've used this kit from you several times and have always been happy with it. The customer wants to run 5 on 5 wheels this time though and I'm unable to find a kit with that pattern so far.
