Why so surprise? not enough movement on this site? lol.

Ebay tends to have alot of poor quality goods, sometimes fakes, made in china stuff, I'm looking for websites that sell good quality stuff, cheaper than what the service dept at the dealer charges, can't go cheap on stuff when I'm riding on 20's.

So for the mounting of the rotors and calipers, upgraded mounting brackets werent required correct? Because for the other bbk set ups i believe upgraded brackets are required. I didnt see you mention that so im thinking these mount right up except for the 4 bolts needed for the rear brakes.

So i did this swap this weekend and it came out awesome. And no upgraded brackets were needed. The calipers mount directly onto the stock spindle. I gotta say thanks to the OP for all the right info for the things needed for the swap!!
