    Thumbs up Deed is done! New brake are on and are amaz-balls!

    I have to say thanks for all the work that was done to put this together. "birtha" appreciates all your hard work. (yeah my blue bomber is called birtha) the improvement in stopping power is just amazing. It's that eye ball popping out of your head feel now! Finally it stops like my mustang with a big brake upgrade. So on to the before and afters. Do not judge my poor dirty girl shes in a sorry state and need a cleaning SO bad.


    Before. weenie mode engaged.


    My not so hot blue painted calipers after 3 years. Original rotors.


    And the new hotness. They look Damn sexy!!


    And with the wheel back on. There is probably not even enough room for a piece of paper between the wheel weights and the caliper! Its a tight fit. haha

    oh and one more



    this is the greatest tool i have bought in the past 5-10 years. It saves so much time its unreal. pump pump pump *pop* its off. best $100 Ive spent in a long time.

    Well it is a Harbor Freight jack. I have the same one, but I use jack stands.

    I've had my HF race jack for years now Bob, never ever been an issue. It will flex sometimes, especially if used to move the car over but that's inherit to all aluminum jacks when used beyond their intention. It always returns to straight though.

    Oh I did. Not sure you can tell but I had the SS lines for the stockers too. Was trying all I could to get this beast to stop.

    Yep that's a HF jack. I got the biggest aluminum one as I did not like the front wheel "Bar" on the lower models. I figured you'd get stuck on everything with something like that. yeah 90% of the time I use a jack stand but as I was not getting into or under the car I was alright with just the jack.

    I highly suggest if you have the brackets do it ASAP! so worth it.
