Fyi, If you hadn't noticed and somewhat surprised kit didn't include but you'll definitely need hub centric spacers to center your rotor on axle... did you notice the slop when you tried to rotate? Definitely can't and shouldn't rely on studs and nuts, it's a safety issue and will vibrate like crazy as the rotor moves around. Measure ID and OD hub and rotor order from a place out of texas online. Had them made for my cragers on 8 3/4 even though many stated you could not... well i proved them wrong. Definitely smoothed the ride as most cragers are slotted uni-lug which leaves them off center of the hub when lugs are tightened. Thanks for sharing!
Ram Man is the disc brake guru and one would think he would have included hub centric spacers. I would contact him and ask him about them. In my opinion they are essential.
How did you learn all this stuff so dam well and what do you really do for a living lol ?? I don’t have the money to buy this kit but I watched the video anyway because I always learn something from you so all I can say is thanks brother
I know you are not done yet, but have seen MANY, MANY videos of tubers showing the HOW TO and never completing the job. The part everyone misses is squeezing the outer pads outside fingers against the caliper to keep the pad from rattling and early wear. This can be done a few ways, but I find it easiest to use a very large channel lock plier and squeeze the finger toward the center. This needs to be done on top and bottom and on both sides. This can also be done by wedging a chisel between the rotor hub and pad and hammering the finger to the caliper...
I need to get that rear disk kit for my duster.... i ben lookin at it for years!
It looks like a real nice kit, i think ill get it sooner than later!!

Agreed. I probably need to make or buy a couple spacers to keep it centered.
geez right you have a lathe!😀@@YoshimoshiGarage

I learned from just trying (and making mistakes) for many years. For a living I actually write software.
NERD!
