Super 8 brakes

[collinmaune]

So I broke down and ordered some ouverson super 8's. Im building a 14 bolt front axle with 47 outers. Has anyone made their own brake setup for the super 8's i cant see spending 650 a corner for brakes. i have a few ideas to build a set but wanting to get as much information as I can

Chevy P30 rotor and 04 f350 calipers. Its a 14" rotor and running 20" wheels.. You can use a normal 1 ton rotor and 1/2 ton caliper though

i just went through this same dilemma. I ended up buying off the shelf rotors and using Wilwood calipers to save weight. I can get you the part numbers tonight if interested. the brackets are super easy to build yourself

Check out Wide Open Design. They have mated spidertrax light weight rotors and Wilwood calipers with super 8 hubs. They are currently doing it on mine.

Spidertrax rotor hats/rotors and wilwood calipers is probably the easiest route to go
