Bring your "Big Body" Buick into the modern era of safety and performance! 🛑⚓️ If you’re piloting a 1961–1970 Electra, LeSabre, Invicta, or Wildcat, you know that stopping all that classic iron with factory drums can be a workout.

Upgrade to the Master Power Brakes Legend Series Rear Disc Brake Kit and experience a smooth, "modern car" pedal feel every time you slow down.

Why your Buick needs this upgrade:
Modern Stopping Power: High-performance 11.6-inch vented rotors dissipate heat far better than drums, virtually eliminating brake fade.

Integrated Parking Brake: Features self-adjusting, zinc-plated calipers with a built-in parking brake assembly that adjusts automatically as pads wear.

Rock-Solid Reliability: Includes black braided stainless steel hoses that won't swell under pressure, giving you a firm, consistent pedal response.

Premium Engineering: Built with black anodized 6061-T6 billet aluminum axle plates and CAD-designed brackets for a perfect, play-free fit.

Built to Last: Every kit comes with high-strength Grade 8 hardware to ensure everything stays secure under heavy loads.

📦 What’s Included:
✅ Zinc-plated calipers with integral parking brake
✅ 11.6-inch vented rotors (5x5" pattern)
✅ Premium low-dust brake pads
✅ Billet aluminum fl**ge plates & mounting brackets
✅ Braided stainless steel hoses

Fitment Note: A minimum 15-inch wheel is required. If you're running the popular Buick 802 style Rallye wheels, be sure to grab the specific spacer and stud kit (MPB Part # AC-BUICKSPACER-K) for proper clearance!

Stop guessing and start stopping. Give your classic Buick the braking performance it deserves! 🏎️💨
