The parking brake is worth it!!

I bought this WITH the e-brake option for my heavy '93 F350 Crew Cab SRW RWD 5-Speed. With the manual tranny, I needed holding power at the boat ramp that the factory drum e-brake never provided. With a couple of YT videos, carefully reading the product page, and a couple of quick support calls with Eric, I am stoked with the upgrade! I hold in place at the boat ram easily now!! I took Eric's advice, and also purchased the Lokar EC-80-FU universal e-brake cables. It made my project much easier and more professional. I am very satisfied, and wish I had done this upgrade long ago.

Easy Peasy

Straight forward conversion. Get a set of universal E-brake cables before install. Also research how to adjust the calipers to the rotor depth. Stops on a dime now.

Put these on my 1997 F350 with no issue. Went on easy and work great. Stop so much better.

Looks amazing

Bought this kit for my Sterling 10.25 I am building to go in my 99 Cherokee. This kit looks awesome, I have not installed it but the test fit worked out great.

Sterling axle disc brake kit

I put this kit on my 96 crew cab f350 and it worked fine it says on here that the rotor goes behind the hub but I but it in front of the hub just like the drum goes on and had to space the bracket towards the leaf spring a little bit you want about 3/4 of a inch between the bracket and the rotor hope this helps good product would buy again
