When do a 5 lug swap using the North Race car brackets, do i need any other brackets to mount the calipers to it or not, im thinking of buying the brackets and getting calipers and rotors from a local parts store. I have read the websites and im just a little unclear on what else would be needed if i went this route.

Click to expand...

only other thing than rotors/calpiers are the anti moan braces, ive heard some say you can survive without them, but i wouldnt.

Thanks guys, do you know if the anti moan braces can be bought at a local parts store is that something I need to get out of the classifieds or a local bone yard?

I'd highly recommend the anti-moan braces as well.. mine moaned very loudly when backing up.

I picked mine up for around $65 from PPI, if I remember correctly. You might also try discbrakesrus...

Good Luck!
