Give Ruff Stuff Specialties a call. They have a set up and it's probably ready to ship.
Does anyone know percentage wise the increase in brake disc diameter is? As soon as you increase wheel diameter you need to work the brakes harder to stop in the same distance, unless u
you want to reduce tyre wall ratio?
So are you getting better brakes that reflect the outlay, assuming that is the only reason to purchase the knuckles?

18% increase in surface area if the whole area of the circle was used for braking. Hard to say how much the actual braking surface increases, but it's significant.Stock rotor is around 311mm the rotor I saw mentioned was 338mm so about an 8.6% increase.
Anyone running it from ruff stuff on this platform yet?Give Ruff Stuff Specialties a call. They have a set up and it's probably ready to ship.
Ruff Stuff continued development of the Hell Fire knuckle that was originated and made by a small vender so, yes, there are some of the originally designed knuckles out there in service now. @jcardona1 has been running them.Anyone running it from ruff stuff on this platform yet?
Doubt its that significant tbh. I can do the math if you guys care18% increase in surface area if the whole area of the circle was used for braking. Hard to say how much the actual braking surface increases, but it's significant.
It's been written that, once the abs system is eliminated, an 80 brake system is capable of locking up all four in size 37.Calipers and pads along with the increase in rotor size should be quite significant... I'm interested for sure. Running a tundra or gx braking system on an 80 would be worth the price of admission IMO.
Well we know for sure we can ask Jose C he pulled his, I want to also 37s dont stop well, even with spanking TT rotrs oads and new calipers and lines/.It's been written that, once the abs system is eliminated, an 80 brake system is capable of locking up all four in size 37.
Drive accordingly.Well we know for sure we can ask Jose C he pulled his, I want to also 37s dont stop well, even with spanking TT rotrs oads and new calipers and lines/.
Mine didn't lock up. Youd need a lot of pedal pressure for that to happen. Or terrible tires.Well we know for sure we can ask Jose C he pulled his, I want to also 37s dont stop well, even with spanking TT rotrs oads and new calipers and lines/.
Surface area is of low relevance unless for static holding or something. Its the relative speed of the rotor (effective radius) and pressure generated.18% increase in surface area if the whole area of the circle was used for braking.
