who has used the aerospace kit and what did it cost? thinking of ordering one and wanted to get some feed back, pictures and a kit number that was used. i was told kit # AC-247 @ 557.99 with a week/week and 1/2 wait time is this the same one anyone has used? has anyone used there old style big bearing rear kit? i was quoted 435.99 i think for #AC-510.

I wonder if aerospace would do a group purchase

mytmouz thanks for the link that was one of the first threads i read on this.
erronisme i'm going through autofab i think they were cheaper than aerospace but not too say that autofab won't.

i use an aerospace kit on my drag truck, it's the only way to go. easy install. i paid around 600 with shipping. good stuff

jeff what if any mods did you have to make ? i'm going to order next week and was wondering what i was getting in to. i got a quote from aero space directly and they quoted me 750 for the front and 509 for the back auotfab was AWHOLE LOT CHEAPER THAT'S FOR SURE!

Aerospace must have gone up. Everyone was the same price. Seems like $560.00 about 6 months ago. If it is $700 now, I feel like I am buying gasoline.

Grandmaster of the "Shade Tree" way.. I can't see the yard for all the cars. Come on down and we will sit on the porch and watch the grass grow.

i did not understand why aero was 200 dollars higher than autofab race cars autofab gets them from aero and autofab say they have the cheapest price ov the brake kits and by the looks of things they do.

I asked someone with who is an aerospace dealer about a group buy and he said $690.00, so the price may well have went up.

ok guy's just ordered my aerospace set up front and back at the out the door price of 1033.98 . i got these from auto fab race cars in maryland and talked with josh king for my order, if i was going to order a group buy i would talk to him. the front was 557.99 and the rears were 435.99 with about a week to a week and a half wait time due to they make the fronts as they are ordered, believe me i looked everywhere and at all different set ups there were some cheaper rear set up but no front set ups.

Sorry guys i've been on vacation and just took a break from everything .

CT & family & I finally met at HMP on friday the 7th . Great people and a nice truck . Had a few minor details to work out , but this thing runs GOOD . I don't want to give any #'s out cause it's not my truck , but for the regulars , i have to spray to hang with it . I set my camera on my slicks knowing I wouldn't forget them and walked off and left both at the house . Very nice truck CT keep up the hard work & let me know next year when your going out with it .

Thanks for the words hot rod your good people in my book , i too have been on vacation and have'nt been on here since 12/ 20.
i enjoyed meeting you and talking with you at the track we have to do this more often, it was a blast and maybe we could get A FEW MORE LUVS DOWN THERE AND HAVE A REAL BLAST!!!!! i should be back out there opening day or when the weather allows to make some more shake down runs, maybe i will get the slapper bars on this time and see if anything changes. i have some more learning to do as far as tuning but i'm learning as i go along and i enjoy it allot, it's always rewarding to put all that work into it and see and fell the results but all of the v-8 owners know what i'm talking about

How would this kit work on a street driven truck? Would it be too much?

i drive my truck strictly on the track with no problems, i could see this kit working on a weekend type truck but not sure about everyday driving. aerospace make a street kit for the luv truck but it's a little more than the strip kit, the strip kit has a single rotor (it's like a motorcycle rotor) and the street kit is a dual vaned setup for the needed cooling for everday braking heat.

Did all this go on the stock spindle?

yes it goes on the stock spindle.
