Re: Anybody running manual disc brakes? Pics

Personally, I'd like manual disc, even on my 3/4T truck (don't have that- it's power). If the engine quits and the vacuum disappears, it isn't yet a problem for me. I can stand on the pedal. My frail wife, though...different story. Though she did manage to get our Astrovan off the freeway and stopped when the fuel pump failed. No Hydroboost brakes or power steering. Luckily she drives like a snail and was on an offramp that had a "Yield" sign at the bottom when it happened. Could have been way worse.
