brake upgrade question

OK, I got my calipers and brackets from malibuolds. I went today and got new rotors and pads. Here's my question... Why are the brake pads so much smaller than the rotor? I mean, why aren't they bigger to cover more area on the rotor? These pads aren't much bigger than the ones on my car now.

Speaking of working parking brake, did you use your old pedal or the new one. if so what was involved in getting the cables hooked up. I wanted to make sure I had the right procedure since I only have experience with swaping in the newer parking brake.

There is nothing, you just hook up the old cables to the calipers.

Do a search on this site and you will see some pic's
