well, i got all the parts for the rear disc conversion finally the rotors came in last week, I guess i just need the brake pads and some missing nuts and bolts.
Since its winter and freezing cold outside I'll probably have to work on the car in a garage, I have access to one but its a bit far away in quantico or Fort Belvoir. I wanted to get done with this in one day and drive the car away. Never done anything with brakes so i know its gonna take me a while by myself. If anyone is in the North Virginia Area I am willing to pay for help on this project for the weekend, if you have your own garage and jacks so much the better. I live at an apartment complex so i dont have a place to work on the car. This post has been edited by coustoe: Nov 14, 2004 - 10:13 AM |

ya i know it looks simple, but I also installed my own springs and thought it looked simple and it took me 3 days because of broken nuts and stupid little things that came up, I wanna get this thing done within 1 day.
