is it worth it though????? all the labor involved??? i would rather just buy some better looking aftermarket wheels

Thought I would kick in my asistance by saying you can save an additional $100 by going and buying rebuilt calipers from autozone with a lifetime warranty for $50 a piece. They do have a $62 dollar core but the nice thing is no one will notice when you swap them out, you could bring in a caliper off of whatever vehicle you want. Enjoy

Sweet, if Vital Velocity EVER sends me the brakes I paid for (its been almost 2 months now), I'll be doing this soon. This saves me some searching!

what about the 16" R/T rim

the 16" R/T rim clears 1st gen calipers...do you think it'll clear grinded down 2nd gen calipers

krafty · 02-11-2005, 06:36 PM

unlikely as the 16" sl rims from a 94-96 fit on first gen calipers but not second

Rustang Cobra · 02-12-2005, 07:31 AM
