I was scrolling down looking at your pictures, and I think I woke my Wife up when I started laughing. The first picture was of the newly painted caliper hanging to dry, then the second was the same caliper covered in grass and twigs. What made laugh was the look on the dog's face ! That's just priceless ! I'm sorry for your mishap, but in a sick way it gave me a good chuckle.
I hope you got it cleaned off and resprayed with no issues.
Again, sorry for your misfortune, but that was too damn funny.

When it fell, I picked it up and said a few choice words, then I laughed and thought "I need a picture of this".

OK, hemi picked my interest and I scrolled back to see your SNAFU. Also, got a chuckle at the dog, like WTF?

Any way, just wanted to ask where you got the rotors, my one side has the groove in it, but the other side doesn't, getting ready to tackle the front brakes! I'll make sure to use a stronger coat hanger...

Nice work on your truck, always enjoy seeing guys going to great lengths of detail, you fit rite in... keep up the quality restore

Believe it or not, I think that these are the factory rotors. The originals all had that groove. I've had to replace nearly every single thing during this build, so I was thrilled when I didn't have to buy 2 new rotors LOL
