This might sound stupid, but on my buddies camaro we where installng front runners and the caliper kept hitting the wheel the same way with the L's and brembo's. What we did to save on grinding (becase we already ground down so much) is make a aluminum spacer plate to fit inbetween the wheel and rotor's. this made the wheel stick out about 1/8 of an inch more but, you couldn't really tell. The job turn out really nice and but the plates did take about an hour a piece to make very nicely. Maybe this method could be used for you guys that aren't ready to cut down you brakes. just a thought.

anyway the brkaes look awesome on the truck, definetly something I would like to do to mine one of these days, once I hit the 11's.

 

So far no fade or problems. Gave it a good romp this morning through some winding roads. There is a spacer out there for this problem but it's 1/2" and that is just too much.

Incon306, Lowering the Truck.
Front:
* 2" lower than stock Western Springs, cut another 1" off.
* Installed Camber kits in upper "A" arms.
* Nitro Slammer 180 PSI shocks.
* Installed shorter bump stops.
Rear:
* Front and rear lowered spring hangers.
* C-sectioned the frame and installed heavy duty supports.

This truck rides as good as stock but let's me aggressively stay up with Porsches and BMW's.

Bolt,

Looks awesome. What did it end up running you price wise and who/where did you get the brake kit from?

Thanks in advance!

Eric
