if you dont mind, pm me the price and infoThe guy I sent them to he actually disassembles them and then sand blasts before powdercoating them. All of the pistons are depressed and ready to go for me.
Awesome man. Best of luck. I would be driving mine but I've got some horrible grinding noise coming from the passenger side of the IRS. I'm really REALLY hoping its just the emergency brake stuck but I don't think stuck brakes can make that much noise. I might be another 300-500 dollars deep if one of my axles is bad.
That's not a good thing bud! The emergency brake cables were a pain to get in place yesterday. I hope you get it figured out and back on the road soon
Turns out it was just the dust shield scraping on the rotor *whew* be sure to make sure those aren't rubbing. I'm assuming mine got bent out of shape while I was moving the rear end around by myself.
I had to bend a few of my front and rears back. Sadly I'm experiencing some noise as well in the back end of mine. I'm praying its the driveshaft that is causing the vibrations and I'll check a few of the bolts along with the IRS hub nut as well.
Mine makes a "whirring" noise which I believe is to be expected with the FTBR kit. From what I've read, the driveline vibration is supposedly due to not having the pinion angle optimized.
Did you have any issues with that? I had my stock driveshaft fitted with the flange and u joint from an 03-04 driveshaft. I'm gonna get it in the air today again and see if the driveshaft is the culprit.
The U joint on the driveshaft def was not right at all. Got it off the car and it was close to sliding out. That will need to be fixed but I will head over to Bruce's site to check on the video.
I did not get the upgraded cover as mine already had a brace and I figured I could save some funds there. If I ever tear into the rear end I may swap that then. Currently I am debating to bumpsteer or not.
Yeah I don't have the upgraded cover either. Spent enough money as it is on all that crap. I have a cover brace but its not installed because its missing a piece (bought it used). I'll probably do the upgraded cover as well some point down the line. May just drive it this way till the cover gets damaged. I got the upgraded bumpsteer kit (not the more expensive one) but I'm going to let a shop install that since I don't know jack about bumpsteer. It's pretty easy to remove and install the stock bumpsteer rods (tie rods?) with the IRS in the car, so it really shouldn't be more than an hours worth of work.
Thinking polished as well. And if you can get away with it...the red calipers to go along with it
Too late on that front haha. I got them powdercoated black with the cobra polished and the front brackets in silver. I think there is a picture on pg 4 of this thread of the brakes that is.
