Looks good! What all work did you have to do to get them to fit? The only thing I could see was drilling out the bolt hole.

I had to drill out the bottom hole and on the top hat make the hole a bit bigger for the shaft.

^ You shouldn't let your caliper just dangle like that, stretches the brake hose.. get some wire and hang it off the spring.

I have new lines going in so im not to concerned plus those are the festiva calipers aspire ones will be on soon.

What's the spring diameter on those?

Ill let you know tomorrow.


So far everything is going smooth i do need a brake hardware kit for the aspire stuff so if i get that tomorrow ill be done the front and post more pics. Also ill add all info for what i bought and did once im done.
