Ed, check your rear axle end play. It is likely causing more rear brake problems than brake fade. Found that to be the problem on both the mustang and the camaro.....especially the camaro. rear brakes on the mustangs don't do much of anything. If you are fading them, check for a sticking caliper.
Thanks, I'll check it out.

Back before I knew anything, I figured ALL the brakes needed to be upgraded so I put 13" Baer brakes with slotted, cross drilled rotors on the back and I don't have a proportioning valve either, so I figure they are working a little harder than the average mustang brakes.

I go through 3-4 sets of rear pads for every set of fronts.
