Re: What is the cheapest way to install six lug disc brakes
Quote:
My rotors are ECE 6 lugs that have been on the truck since 2002, AND I bought them used from another member. I've put over 30K on them. No grooves, no noise, no warpage, never been turned. They're a very high quality rotor. I doubt I'll ever need to replace them. That's how I did mine on the cheap. COMPLETE 1971 GMC disc brake set up (crossmember and all), I even took the booster and all the brake lines. Paid $100. I then replaced all the rubber parts (that was $, but needed to be done anyway), cleaned up and rebuilt what I could, new pads and rubber lines, ECE rotors and I had disc brakes. If you include the cost of rebuilding your front suspension (ball joints, etc) some of these kits aren't that $.
