Default Brake upgrade for TD XLE with 250 2V.

Does anyone know of a relatively easy brake upgrade for a TD XLE 250 2V Top Loader car? Don't mind changing Hubs to 5 stud Ford and using 14 inch wheels. Or maybe 15 inch wheels.
Any idea of any kits out there?

Castlemaine Rod Shop and Hoppers Stoppers do kits.
I have a Castlemaine kit on one of mine but I did that about 20 odd years ago. It used Modified XY discs, HZ holden calipers which you supplied yourself and the kit came with brackets to bolt the calipers on, bolts etc and rings that I had to heat shrink onto the spindles to fit the larger falcon bearings.
The hoppers Stoppers kit use a more modern hub design with floating type disc and later model calipers.
