hey everyone, I just wanted to know how you guys set up your after market brake and replace the stocks. All i have is the clutch/brake stock combo.

I've not actually done mine yet. The easiest way is if you have a locked diff. That way you can have a single brake, and not two. Just buy some kind of go kart brake set up and mount it on the back axle. It should be more than enough to stop you.
As for the brake/clutch pedal, I have the same problen. Seeing as you have a gas pedal, you're gonna need some thinking.

What Im hoping to do it adjust my clutch so it will be fully disengagedwhen half pressed. I'll then attach the hyraulic 'trigger' the the brakes under that, so when you push it right down you'll have brakes. It's not ideal, but is simple if it works.

Sorry I cant be more help

I bot two different types for my next mods- one is a manual disc and caliper and the other is a drum brake setup- id like to find a hydraulic setup/disc off a motorcycle or small car sometime- since im using a straight rear axle setup.
