Hey Guys and gals!
Being fairly new to the world of eskies - I'm helping a mate with his project 79 Panel van. 1st thing I noticed was how average the brakes are! Is there a decent upgrade/swap caliper-disc-master cylinder- booster etc? (sorry I tried to do a search but came up wit nothing!) Cheerio Steve |

heya buddy, Hopper stoppers do 300mm brake upgrade kits for the escorts for around $1300 or something. Always wanted to do it to mine but sold it before i could, worse choice i made.
