March 19, 200620 yr yep, did the rear disc brake swap on my 86 wgn this afternoon....thanx in main part to ed, the wonder man! anyway, seemed to go pretty well..will be able to tell more after i go to and get back from work this evening...the rear drums were toast so this was good timing to go for the swap..... thanx again ed!
March 20, 200620 yr Author bump and, did the commute thing yesterday and yep, i really can tell a difference! good mod!
March 21, 200620 yr My 87 GL-10 T-Wag has four wheel disk. It stops as well as my friends 99 Cougar with four wheel disk + ALB
March 29, 200620 yr Just finished the swap on my wagon. Holy cow, is this what modern brakes feel like?!? The new brakes are WAY better than drums, I highly suggest doing this conversion!
March 29, 200620 yr agreed, this is probably the best thing that you can do for a subaru. HUGE upgrade.
March 30, 200620 yr yea major safety factor with the disc brakes. I think that is my favorite mod that I've done on my car. Makes it so you can drive faster since it stops on a dime.
March 30, 200620 yr Biggest difference is on my lifted Hatch. Try stopping that sucker on the freeway going 60mph in traffic:eek: I've had to drive it for the last 5 days while waiting for parts on my XT6. Freeway and city driving with 30x11.50 Swampers, disc brakes are definatly needed.
