Front end overhaul

[Diseazd]

I appreciate your input......yes, I was careful to install the discs with the vanes angled back....amazing how much air flow moves through the vanes just spinning them by hand. These brakes really cool themselves....not important for street, but critical for racing.

is there a left and a right?

[Diseazd]

Only on the vented rotors that are angled (curved vanes).

Here's my cheap Stop Tec rotors. I'm happy with them and the ceramic pads I'm running. No brake dust or squealing. Street driving only.

They have a left and right p/n.

Wow....At first glance, I thought that was a long neck Bell's Two Hearted IPA ( not a jack) in front of the brake rotor. Looks good Cliff....but, disappointed that it was a jack.

Not that you're familiar with Two Hearted or anything...

All together.....I had to put new grease caps on to finish it off. All that's left is to bleed those big calipers and button it up.

How thick are those vented rotors?  If I wanted the "hollow" or vented rotors would I need those Wildwood calipers?

Thanks!

[Diseazd]

Not sure about that Cliff....maybe someone else can answer that question. My guess is you need to match the larger caliper to a wider vented rotor. These calipers are huge, as is the rotor. It's a simple install.....Xmas is coming up....put these on your list and tape it to the fridge.

The new brake package looks great and I'm sure will stop you on a dime but is there a significant weight gain with the new brakes? They just look so big, are they also heavy?

He needs those brakes if he carries that wrench!

Actually, they are lighter than stock....the calipers especially.
