David711 Posted February 18, 2011 Report Posted February 18, 2011 Does anybody know about how much wilwood 6 piston calipers would cost for my excursion? Quote "WHOEVER SAID MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS MUST OF BEEN BROKE"
loganberry Posted February 18, 2011 Report Posted February 18, 2011 a arm and a leg! a cheaper alternative is slotted/drilled rotors/calipers off the roush f150, big upgrade over the stock ones on the X and not nearly as expensive Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk
David711 Posted February 18, 2011 Author Report Posted February 18, 2011 The roush 150 is 6 lug isn't it? I have 8 lugs on my ex. Quote "WHOEVER SAID MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS MUST OF BEEN BROKE"
Reallunacy Posted February 18, 2011 Report Posted February 18, 2011 http://www.wilwood.com/Calipers/CaliperList.aspx?appl=&subname=&dustboot=&numofpist=6&mtspec=&pistarea= That is just searching for six piston on their site. I don't know the other information for your car or any other options you are looking at, but this should give you an idea. Quote
loganberry Posted February 18, 2011 Report Posted February 18, 2011 yup 6 lug, ive seen it done before, they made it work somehow and stopped real nice ive seen these kits too, not too bad http://www.egrbrakes.com/index-main.htm Quote My F-150 Build GET ON THE BANDWAGON what if they tried messing with the amps when the subs werent louder hahah jk

I've heard nothing but good about wilwoods. I'm willing to drop cash on em to stop my heavy truck lol. I just never got a email back from wilwood and couldn't find what I really needed I guess :/ Quote "WHOEVER SAID MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS MUST OF BEEN BROKE"
meade916 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 you are probably looking at $5800 bucks BEFORE taxes and before install. Installed, after taxes, shipped, and steel braided line (thats extra) probably $7000+ If you install them yourself you are still looking at $6300-$6500 Quote All SMD products + MORE available at my store here! https://wccaraudio.com/ Subscribe to My Youtube Channel!

Ford302Redneck Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) yup 6 lug, ive seen it done before, they made it work somehow and stopped real nice ive seen these kits too, not too bad http://www.egrbrakes.com/index-main.htm Dude, you can't fit 6 lugs on 8 lugs. You must be thinking of a expedition. The Excursion should share the same breaking as my truck(F-250). I'm planning on upgrading to EBC front rotors soon. I don't think mine has horrible braking, does well enough. Even when pulling 10k pounds, without trailer brakes, its ok. Edited February 22, 2011 by Ford302Redneck Quote
Ford302Redneck Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) So actually upgrading rotors, and quality pads, can make a world of difference. EBC is suppose to be very quality stuff in the pad and rotor department. Edited February 22, 2011 by Ford302Redneck Quote
