| I like having my brake split off on its own pedal. We have upgraded to 10" disks on the rear axle and an aftermarket mechanical caliper. Stops nice for a lot longer. | |

| yeah man the best is to split them. but I plan on adding a disk brake but I saw this guy on here he bolted the disk straight to the stock transaxle rotor and it seems like that could work with the mechanical caliper too | |

| the spring actually holds up pretty well it can lock my tires if needed but it brakes rather smoothly ,it also eliminates the need for a return spring . but im still in the testing fase | |

| Bit of a odd way of doing it, but looks like it will work. Gas and brake are swapped, so don't hit the wrong pedal at the wrong time!
I could see a larger rotor and caliper used on the stock location working. Still may wear fast due to it spinning faster than the wheels. | |
