    11.75" Brakes on an A body

    i have them on both of my cars. one with the sliders one with the pins. i have the sliders on the duster and one day i pulled the rotor and bracket off and swapped on the bigger stuff. it was definitely a noticable difference. not huge but i did notice it. go with the 11x2 1/2 drums too.

    Anyone drilled rotors for better braking?

    some reasons i was told why you cant cut them, the edges wont be chamfered any more which will eat up the pads real quick, the rotors will be more likely to crack without being chamfered, and the slots can and most likely be different depths on each side after cutting so you will have unequal...
