Brake Superkits

As with other kits, we have several variations of this kit. Select the one that is right for you.

Superkit A: Includes 2 front wheel cylinder rebuild kits, 2 rear kits, 1 master cylinder rebuild kit, both sets (front and rear) regular brake shoes, new master cylinder "firewall" gasket, and a master cylinder boot.

Superkit B: Same as Superkit A but also includes 4 new brake hoses.

Superkit C: Contains all 4 new wheel cylinders, all 4 new brake hoses, both axle sets regular brake shoes, master cylinder "firewall" gasket, master cylinder boot, and 2 hardware kits. This kit DOES NOT include a master cylinder or master cylinder rebuild kit.

Superkit D: Same as Superkit C but also includes a new stock master cylinder. This is our most popular kit.

Superkit E: Same as Superkit D but also includes 4 turned drums. This is the most complete kit.

Options: 1962-66 car kits can have the single master cylinder replaced with our dual master cylinder conversion. To add this to any kit order PN U-5456. We can also substitute Kevlar or metallic shoes. Call for prices. 503-434-1648

Half Kits? If you just want to do either only the front or rear then divide the price of a full kit by two and add 5%.

Be sure to specify the kit you want when you order. Add the kit letter as a suffix to the part number. (Example = U-4523A).

Dual Master Cylinder Conversion

We have an easy conversion for those of you who want to convert your single reservoir master cylinder (1962-66 cars) over to the later dual master cylinder system. You can forget about the old, complicated way of doing this by installing this kit which includes a NEW master cylinder and necessary lines and connectors. The system is self-contained in the master cylinder and does not require complicated blocks and lines! Each kit is complete with necessary instructions.
