Just got my stainless steel dual brake set. I need to research what I buy a little closer before I open my mouth. For some reason I thought it put a disc on both output shafts. Come to find out it's two stainless discs basically on top of each other on the rear. Oh well, kit looks cool. Two stainless cross drilled rotors, way bigger than the stock. Can't wait to get it in. Getting tired of the intermitting brakes. I can adjust it to stand on its nose at the beginning of a tank, and it just slows down ok after a while. Hope it helps, but it was a very cheap upgrade. 11.00

I am still useing my stock brakes and can lock all 4 wheels or do a nose stand on the street or grass, grass is better gets grip. I have brake flipped it many times in grass. Now I have the 3 speed and run faster I have been thinking about doing a dual brake mod.

My area of play... is pretty tight, and I am off the throttle and straight to the brake pretty much all the time. Ever since I got the three speed, and did the port and polosh, I have all but destroyed my stock body, I do nose stands, or flips, some times, and barely get it slowed down enough to turn some other times. If anything, hopefully it will just make it more consistant. It better do something, there's 125% more braking material.

Those brakes are suprisingly grabby, I wouldnt set them too tight lol. I always use them, but they will flip your truck over the front bumper.

i adjusted mine a bit too much they worked great but when they got warm they must have started binding but i didnt notice until it stopped dead but by that time i had worn the disk half away on one side
