how do they compare with the factory setup- i.e. stopping power, fade, noise, dust, etc. I pull a 6000-lb wakeboard boat with my F150, and its got 50k miles on it now. my factory discs are starting to pulse, and instead of getting the factory ones turned and new pads put on, I figured that I'd just upgrade. Also, does the package I linked to include all four or just the front (or back)?

These wont work on your F150 , the will work only with the Ford 9 inch housing end (late style torino) and REAR ONLY... You either have an 8.8 rear or a 9 3/4 like mine... Might try upgrading to a different caliper... Call Baer Brakes or Wilwood and see if they offer and upgrade caliper.. Hope this helps... I'm having Speedo Issues right now driving me crazy..
