My new brake parts (dial-up warning)

[4doorGL]

I got the last parts I need for the brake swap today, so we should be doing it this weekend.

Pictured below are the spindles/hubs/rotors I got for $36 a side ($72 total ). If anybody needs some, call Spalding Auto Parts (1-800-366-2070). I was VERY satisfied with their service as I ordered the parts on Tuesday and got them today (only $18 for ground shipping!!!).

Are these used???

I'd be leery about putting a rusted brake disk on a car.

I think that is obvious:hmmm:

I am sure he is going to replace the rotors with new ones

I would bead blast the spindle (not the part where the bearing rides against) and shoot that with a little black paint as well.

When I redo my suspension, I probably will remove the lower control arm and spindle and spray them with a frame paint. Keeps things much cleaner that way.

you still need to lower that beast :

Just take the rotors to your local auto parts store and have them turned. Sure it will make them slightly thinner, but from that you will know if they are slightly warped or not and you also get a true surface to work with.

Besides, this is for the rear, isn't it? If it's not for the rear and it's for the front, how much larger are the rotors, is it a direct bolt on, and how much bigger are the pistons?

those are for the front, they are tib rotors.

Those in the picture, I would not turn. I'd replace those with new ones, which are about 25 bucks apiece. I would even go with the slotted rotor before the stocker.

Cool Rob, let me know how it goes. If all goes well I will order my stuff soon.
