Default New Brakes

I received my new brakes Friday. I can't wait until i get everything installed. I hope to have my new wheels and tires this week. I had to go with 17" wheels to clear the six piston front calipers. I went with Centerline Splitspoke wheels and Nitto 555R tires.

Do you know if the rotors have been replaced on the rear? If not you may have to drill out the rivets to remove them. I had to drill them out on my 69.

Yes I will have to drill them out. I will be pulling the spindles to replace the bearings and to replace the factory wheel studs with 1/2" studs.
