Disc Brake upgrade - Early Bronco Big Brake Kit
8 years ago I pieced the GM disc brake kit together and installed it on my Bronco. At the time, I thought I would save money by sourcing all the parts and piecing the kit together myself, but I ended up spending more money than buying the kit off the shelf.
Toms Offroad has recently come out with their "Big Brake Kit" - A disc brake kit with bigger rotors and more stopping power.

Super clean. I like your stool idea! You’re able to stack them to get the desired height.

You do not need to change your knuckle for this kit. The stock drum brake knuckle will work

Cool upgrade! Almost worth doing just for the looks! So when you go to the parts store to get replacement pads, what model/year car do you ask for?

Excellent video brother! I was looking at these on the website the other day. Did you change your backspacing with the method wheels?

I did, and I wish I hadn’t. I went with the stock Method back spacing, and right now my tires tucks under the body. I like a little stick out with the tire and I wish I wouldn’t have gone so far in.
Those brakes look great. But a question about the Bilstein I have been thinking of those, but Tom's don't offer any chooies of lengths. I have those same shock hoops. What length shock are you going with? Is there maybe only one length?
@NashvilleEarlyBronco

I think they are just one length right now. These are the 5165s and they are shorter than the previous 5160s that I was running. I’ve yet to test if I have less travel, but out of the box comparison they were about 2” shorter stroke.
