rear end brakes all done....

after finding some new bigger rotors that dont need any machineing ive decided to use them instead, so i ditched the smaller drilled and slotted rotors, that ive already did the machineing (so if anyone needs any rockwell rear brake rotors let me know)

they are 14" rotors and willwood 4 piston calipers...



DONT LAUGH!!!!!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHA....the other side is much better i swear, i used one peice of metal instead, but i already had this side apart and the other together so i didn't feel like tearing it apart again....

no, not unless you buy a kit. which=big $$$$, i found out about these rotors that requires absolutely no machineing.....that is unhurd off.....not many people know what they are....nor will i tell them, so everything i build is going to be custom, besides, you can tell that i couldn't of fit any brackets in there between the caliper and the backing plate.....

no, these pics were taken at my freinds shop, that his little daughters buggy....although it is fun to ride, i just struggle to get out of it....haha
