Willwood, Strange or Aerospace?

[Ed Wright]

Installed mine back in 2010, before I closed my shop. I don't know what another brand could do, that these do not. No pedal is not the brand. Wrong pedal ratio, or master cylinder bore. I was warned once about "smoking all 4 tires at the finish line." Didn't realize I locked them up. Wheels roll freely, good pedal, plenty of breaking power.
What else is there?
Maybe they changed something.

I'll have to concur with Ed...Aerospace being used on three different cars and no problems over the years. I would not expect any problems out of the other brands as well.

I have wilwoods on 3 cars and never a issue. Aerospace on one car and always had to pump the pedal once at the end of a run to get anything.

Wrong bore size master cylinder, or need bled correctly. I have even seen calipers installed with the bleeder NOT at the very top. How do they bleed all the air out? LOL

when I built the Comanche nobody listed front disks for it.
I contacted aerospace and they said to send them a spindle and they could build the mounting plate (everything else is 5"X4 1/2 and available). ended up charging me $65 extra over the regular kits - and they have been on for 14 years. Very satisfied with the brakes and the customer service. Works for me.

Everyone shoots for a nice FIRM pedal but I haven’t seen one post regarding DRAG......Absolutely NO drag with the Lamb setup....Aerospace not so much, but they do supply you with washers to shim their setup....

The big knock on Aerospace is not so much how they work, They use the same pads and piston sizes as every other manufacturer .
The real issue is quality control and component packaging.
I've installed every other brand out there for customers and not once did I need to re drill holes, or counter sink them or run to the bolt bin for correct hardware . ....not the case with Areospace.
Caliper alignment also an issue with them witch causes soft ,spongy pedal feel.
all correctable issues ,but I'll take Strange ,MW Lamb or Willwood over them any day.

I had aerospace on our cobalt, and the drag was tremendous. If we bring it back out, I’ll put Lamb brakes all the way around. They drag so bad when he’d pull into the pits and clutch the car, it’d slide both fronts.
