Turbo 2 brakes on FB help!
I want to achieve better front brakes on my FB. I will be using 15" wheels of some sort. I also have a CHrysler 8-3/4 posi rear now after the stock rear tore itself up on a hill climb, it's 5 lug x 4.5... which is the same pattern as 87+ turbo 2's I believe.
Finding a donor car in upstate NY will not be easy so before I go looking, what exactly will I need to change, spindle, caliper and rotor? Or strut assy as well?
Am I missing anything, any other ideas? Any good sources?
I've never had two of these cars side by side with a wheel of to compare. Actually I'm not very familiar at all with the TUrbo 2's really.
Thanks a million!

You can either swap the rotors and calipers over to your first gen struts. There CURRENTLY is only one kit to do this and it is in the $350 range. You would supply the factory parts. - OR - You can swap out the entire front crossmember and strut assemblies. There are some guys on here that have or are in the middle of this swap, pull a search for this option.
