What a difference!!!!! It stops now!!
The last of my parts showed up yesterday and i got an early start this morning. All in all it was pretty straight forward, the only issue i had was the brackets went on the wrong sides. (followed the instructions) They say welds go to the outside and calipers to the rear (except a100, calipers to the front). But they didn't say welds to the inside.
Here are some pictures and everything i bought totaled $363, i also didn't have to pay any core fees.
You can see with the welds on the outside, they are too close the the rotor. I trimmed the bolts before i found the problem.
I couldn't find a stud until i was finished, i thought i left it at work.
They look good behind the crappy wheels!!
The worst part of the whole thing was making the room needed for the new master cly.
The stopping power is way better, plus the fact that my van was a 108 with 10" drums. Stops straight too, i need to relearn not to steer into the brake pull.
I also fixed a brake line from another owner, kinda scary to see that kinda fix.
