Now got the front discs and booster fitted. Stayed with the drums on the back but with new linings and cylinders. Needed a pressure regulator for the backs to reduce line pressure. Very happy :D with the result ;)
Thanks to the boys at Hoppers Stoppers - excellent service :)

9 inch diff is next

Hi 69 Coupe. Looks very nice. This Hoppers kit, do you know if it is a full Aussie Falcon setup from master cylinder/booster, down to calipers/discs, with different sized cylinders on the back drums?

Apparently aussie cars (at least holdens) have 1" master culinders, vs Chevies with 1 1/8".

Cheers n have a good weekend.

The master cylinder / booster is a Universal type they use and suits many cars. This was good for me as is a smaller diam. than the chev unit for a later BB swap. Disc only is falcon. Not sure what PBR caliper is used. Cylinders on the back drums are standard chev. Ring Peter at Hoppers, very knowlegable and helpful

Peter helped me out as well, I have PBR calipers (same as gen 5 vette and 02 to 05 HSV). DBA discs....

Gave me a great price $1300 for front discs, calipers and braided brake lines....

Discs are 330mm on front.

Hoppers know their stuff
