Details will follow later, hopeful;ly later today. I still need to work some more on the car but not the brakes, I have an issue with my driver side control arm that needs to be fixed, but brake-wise I'm done.
   quick teaser 15 mm spacers was needed to clear MY wheels calipers HAVE to be grind off and spacer was used to push the rotor OUT 3 mm in order to clear ball joint. Rotor is based on a Cadillac Catera 2001 and I used Stanless steel brake lines and were just perfect, not too long and not short at all I'll go over the whole thing later. BTW, I did install the rotors backwards  I was tired and overlooked that, but I'll fix that sometime during the week.

QUOTE (Rusty @ Sep 9, 2009 - 1:56 AM)  If i didn't get that wrong, for him it was a little easier to upgrade because he had super strut suspension so he ended up swaping knuckles ? sorry guys, being cauhg up at work hopefully today at lunch time I'll write some of the do's and don'ts with this set-up and and rant about MY particular issue at hte moment that is affecting my brakes, but it's cause by something else that is defective on my car -------------------- |
