Been a while, here some new PICS!
Thanks to L-tuned parts on the great deal and fast service! ordered last Friday and received yesterday!
Install took about 5 1/2 hours started at 5:00 PM, ended at about 10:30 PM, with garage cleanup! it would have been a lot faster but we ran into difficulty. The Rotora knuckle on the caliper did not fit the factory bolts! I called ROTORA and they stated that I needed to check the pitch thread. The factory bolts were the wrong PITCH thread! So i purchased some bolts at the local hardware store for 6.00 dollars that were a different pitch thread! Everything went easy from there!
Here are the PICS! I feel bad who ever missed on the Group buy! great deal!

Nice BBK. I love mine. But one thing I would say is to look into the bolt that you bought at the local auto parts store. They are usually not the best. Go online and find some ARP bolt in the same thread pitch and replace it with the current one on the car. You don't want one of those things snapping.

Rotora Brake Upgrade!
Lettuce, what a nice upgrade!
This is a mod you will enjoy each day you drive your car. I had to learn how to drive all over again, not worrying about stopping and hitting the cars in fornt of me, but making sure the people in the rear of me could stop as soon as I could?
Be careful and enjoy!
Now all you need is the rear set up and we can welcome you into the 4x4 club!
Lol! Nice upgrade.
