big brake kit
 
Ive done some searching around and havent really come across anything. Is there a decent big brake kit around for a 1st gen blazer with 4x4? are they ok to use with stock rear drums? Will I need to upgrade the nrake cylinder as well? Thanks in advance!

with a big brake kit your going towant to do a disc conversion to the rear and if you haven't allready checked there is baer, willwood,brembo,superlite6 check all those out and maybe you will find what your lookin for

is it necessary to do that? I just want to have better stopping ability than stock. Do I have any other options?

you can just swap out the front with a big brake kit or for better stopping swap all pads to ceramic pads and change the drums and rotors out with ceramic style rotors and drums check with checker or kragen whichever you have were your at for raybestos i use them and there sweet for better stopping without a big brake up grade the reason i would go to a big brake kit is if i went to a 20' rim or bigger then you would need a bigger brake kit

no problem anything to help and you should like the ceramic set up you wont want to go back to metallic or semi metallic or organic the bonus of ceramic pads is no black brake dust
