    60-to-0 mph numbers

    I had to stop real quickly the other day after driving for a while and noticed my brakes aren't as strong as they used to be. I'm beginning to hear a little squeal. If I have to do my brakes, I want to do the '98-'02 front brake and '92-'97 rear disc conversion. Here are my questions.

    1. What are the best 60-to-0 mph numbers for a box panther with this conversion done?

    2. Has anyone done just a rear disc brake conversion on a box panther? Were there any noticeable improvement in braking or should I just stick with the rear drums?

      Just doing the rears will make a big improvement.

      I don't think anyone has actually done any measurements....
