hey does anybody run jamar,cnc,or tatum rear disc brake setup,or what type of setup do you run? im gonna run a 5 lug wheel and i have to buy all of it. ive ran the same setup for years ,front rotor and rear hub machined to fit together.its kinda heavy though.what about the cast 5 lug hub with a disc ,anybody runnin those?thanks for your help

I'm running neal rear hubs and rotors with Wilwood calipers. They work great even on my heavy buggy with either the bolted tires or 37"boggers.

CNC stuff is GREAT, but pricey! Pro-am is just as good if not better, Tatum is another great one. I have not heard anything great about jammar, but nothing horrible either.

i agree with race on all but the jamar and while i have only had a set of thier cutting brakes ive had friends who have used thier hydraulic pedals and we all had trouble with them and swithed over to all cnc stuff

Thats the kind of stuff I heard about jammar, but I didnt want to talk them down too much cuz I havnt had any of jammar stuff to have issues with

i was leaning towards jamar a lil because they have a chromoly center hub that is replacable,and brian at drews said jamar had brought their quality up,other than that they all sound pretty good

they have brought up thier quality recently cause tool just put a brand new set of thier high dollar billet pedals in his green and white hell hound buggy last year and never could get any brakes worth a shit and when he swithched to a set of cnc pedals he didnt have any more trouble but that is the most recent report ive had cause we pretty much all got away from them several years ago but after that i assumed they were still no good but that is just my opinion

Jamar used to use a smaller diameter rotor, I think it was a 10". They are bolt on so it could be swapped for a larger one but it will affect where you mount your caliper. Also, make sure you get the Wilwood style 4 piston calipers, the smaller 2 piston calipers aren't enough.

I have the Jamar 4 piston calipers and rotors and they have worked for me. Nothing great but nothing bad either. I can stop without any issues..
I only went with Jamar because they were the only 4 piston - 4 lug set-up I could find. I am running CNC cutting brakes and CNC Pedals..

I have Tatum's on mine and love them! yes make sure you get 4 piston calipers,unless you have a super lite buggy. And if you go with CNC get the HD ones Not the light weight sand car ones. I never had any Jamar disc but there turnbrakes were crap imo
