Every since switching over to the Blackbird disc, it made it that much better. I think the rotors and pads that came with the Blackbird kit are not the greatest. I already blued the rear rotors because I lost my trailer brakes in PA going downhill.

I will probably be switching over to the hydroboost in a few months, just need to finish a few open projects.

Thanks Billy,

I will look into the Performance Friction pads, I did change the rear pads, the ones that came with the kit made to much dust. I did bench bleed my master cylinder and my truck will stop if I stand on the pedal. What kind of front rotors do you have? Thanks

Frank
