Hello,


Hello. I have a modified 1887 9000T can you tell me if I can simly bolt on 1994-1998 9000T calipers, rooters and dust shield? I've heard this is a simple bolt on upgrade has anyone done this ? If so what are the pros and cons. The 87, 9000T weighed 2870Lbs I think the 94-98 weighed 3400 lbs and they use the same rear brakes. I would think the front breaking surface area would increase by 35% if so I bet the break will work great?
