We have commitment! The IRS is mine! He sent me a couple more pictures after he dropped it out.

So Saturday I'll hit the road at about 5:00 am and head for Waco! Yay me! I should be back up to Dallas by two easy enough for Burgers and Beers.

Can you imagine how pretty that IRS will be when i'm through with it?
Congrats bro! Now lets discuss my finders fee:rlaugh:
 
Awesome! Ummmm, I don't suppose anyone noticed they ground the heads on the banjo bolts for the rear calipers... Someone needs to be kicked in the taint.
I just saw that now. It shouldn’t be a problem to replace, should it?

I’ll tear the calipers completely down, smooth, refinish and rebuild them anyhow.
 
Yeah, just replace them and get the MM Stainless braided lines for it like I did on mine. As long as there's enough meat left on them to get a wrench on the bolt head you're good. It just annoys me seeing crap like that, you should never take a grinder to any part of the brake system then trust your life to it.
