Talking Studs, Spacer and Rotor install w/pics

Installed some extended studs for the 10MM spacer (to get +12 offset), and my Drilled / Slotted StopTech rotors. Taking off the Caliper bracket was a piece of cake, just used a 1/2 inch breaker bar and it came right off.

For the studs, i didn't want to bang it with a hammer but couldn't get the c-clamp in to place. So i screwed a nut on the studs, one bang of the hammer and they came out. Added some washers and a big bolt on the new stud to pull them through.

One extended stud installed





I didn't know there were two pistons on my caliper...cool



Washer and bolt to pull the studs through (bolt in the middle is just to take up space)
